In addition to being one of the world\u2019s most exclusive island resorts, Alphonse Island is without a doubt also one of the world\u2019s finest destinations for bonefish on the fly. This small coral island in the middle of the Indian Ocean has a total of 3,6 kilometers of shore. A team of 14 professional guides have spent years exploring the waters around the island and perfecting techniques to catch the large bonefish and other species that inhabit them as well as those of nearby islands such as Sant Francois. Any of the guide team members is equally qualified to show beginners how to cast or to provide expert advice to the most experienced fly fishermen. <\/p>\n
Since the resort was opened, visiting fishermen have marvelled at size and numbers of bonefish. Over a three year period fishermen averaged over 2,000 bonefish caught per year. A number of IGFA records have also been broken at the resort. The Alphonse Island experience is simply everything one might dream that Seychelles fly fishing holiday could be!<\/p>\n
Additionally, the island also has 38 all purpose boats including an excellent large boat fully equipped for blue water fishing targeting, sailfish, dolphin fish, wahoo and various species of tuna. Distances to get to prime fishing are minimal and guests often beginn catching fish just after leaving the lagoon. All boats are equipped with radios and safety equipment. Guides will bring drinks in ice filled coolers. Guests may have their lunches out on the flats or they may return to enjoy a meal and rest in the comfort of an air conditioned cabin on a mothership.<\/p>\n
Aside from the fishing, guests can also enjoy activities such as snorkeling or scuba diving in the spectacular reefs that protect the island or in the lagoon with its incredibly abundant sea-life. Other activities available include canoeing, sailing or windsurfing. Guests may also relax next to the swimming pool or enjoy a game on the tennis courts. This marvelously unique destination is ideal for fishermen looking to travel with their non-fishing companions.
