Three Luxurious Fishing Destinations
Fishing is not always regarded as the most luxurious of pastimes, but at the three destinations that we are going to discuss, you are sure to change your mind. Not only that, but they are hidden gems away from the crowds and as luxurious and exclusive locations as they come. The scenery, accommodations, and service are uncomparable, so sit back and help us choose your next fishing destination.
Tierra del Fuego, Argentina
Fishing tourism has gained popularity in recent years. It is estimated that the industry is worth $72 million per year. This can be put down to many factors, including the ease of travel but also the effect of the entertainment industry. If we look at television, there are a plethora of shows available to viewers, like Catching Monsters, that give viewers a glimpse of the fishing industry. Similarly in the iGaming sector, we can see the influence of fishing in games available, like Fishin’ Frenzy, available on an online bingo app. Games such as these allow gamers to experience a mix of bingo and the underwater world with regular bingo features as well as tackle boxes, rods, and buoys. This popularity has meant tourists are looking for more exclusive fishing experiences; that’s where Tierra del Fuego comes in.
At the southernmost tip of South America, lodges like Kau Tapen provide visitors with luxury and the opportunity to fish for some of the largest fish in the ocean, like brown trout. Due to the remoteness of the region, it means that not many make it down this far, meaning many visitors can experience it in relative calm.
Alphonse Island, Seychelles
The Seychelles are the ultimate holiday destination in the middle of the Indian Ocean. They have pristine beaches and the perfect weather. However, they have a little secret, and that’s Alphonse Island.
It’s located 400 kilometers from the main island and offers some of the best saltwater fishing on the planet. Anglers can hope to catch bonefish and giant trevally. However, be warned only a number of fishermen are allowed to visit per year due to conservation efforts, but those who get the green light can take advantage of guided tours and experts helping them. Of course, apart from the fishing, you can expect luxurious lodgings and fine dining.
Lizard Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia
The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is well-known for its wide range of species, which makes it a brilliant place to do a spot of fishing. Lizard Island is the ideal spot to do so.
Perfectly secluded, the private island allows anglers the chance to catch black marlin and barramundi, amongst other fish. The resort offers expert guided tours so that fishers have the best chance of catching some of the most sought-after game on the planet. After that, guests can relax in luxury in one of the 40 private villas that overlook the beach, a spa, and some brilliant dining experiences.
These three fishing destinations mix the luxurious with the adventure of fishing by the sea. You can get unparalleled service, the ultimate luxury experience, while potentially catching your next meal at the same time. Many anglers have come before you and chosen these destinations so why not put it on the list for next time?
