About The Destination
The Alphonse Group is one of the most famed saltwater fly fishing destinations in the Indian Ocean. Its 10 000 acres of white sand flats provide easy wading and world-class fly fishing, and is most well-known for its exceptional populations of bonefish as well as a variety of species. The fishing season at Alphonse Island runs all year round, with certain times being more suited to experienced anglers.
The offshore waters are also home to the most incredible variety of bluewater fish species, making it a great destination for game fishing. The structure and sheer drop-offs are ideal for attracting a variety of pelagic species that can be caught on the fly as well as conventional trawling methods.

Indo-Pacific Permit
Golden-yellow fins with big, black eyes are the most striking features of an Indo-Pacific Permit. Apart from that, they are well camouflaged on the backdrop of white sand, turtle grass, or coral flats. Their body is a silver, almost mirror-like colour that reflects their habitat, making them nearly invisible to the untrained eye.
