Fishing

Fish is a central part of traditional Seychellois cuisine and Seychellois have been expert fishermen for as long as the islands have been inhabited, ensuring that the dish of the day is always fresh from the sea.

The warm waters of the vast western Indian Ocean supply a myriad range of fish and fishing opportunities to the enthusiastic angler, allowing a fishing trip off La Digue to be everything from a one off day trip to a week long ocean going adventure.

Working alongside local fishermen and the talented crews of the Azzurra Pro Dive centre, La Digue Island Lodge can tailor make the fishing trip of your dreams, catering to all tastes, from trolling for marlin behind a powerful motor boat to using a simple hand line while reef fishing for succulent parrot fish and rabbit fish.

We can cater for any fishing holiday available in Seychelles, whether it’s a private trip aboard an ocean going motor boat, or a group holiday for seasoned reef fishermen; La Digue Island Lodge is ready to meet your every need.
