Private Fly-Fishing the Pristine Flats of Mombasa Creek

Wade the glassy tidal flats outside Mombasa for bonefish, permit, and giant trevally with a master guide. An utterly exclusive saltwater experience on the Indian Ocean's most storied coast.

What to expect

Your expert guide meets you dockside and transfers you by traditional dhow to remote creek flats at first light, when fish are most active. You'll wade gin-clear shallows casting for trophies while a dhow crew keeps cold towels and drinks at the ready. The guide's generational knowledge of these tides and fish behaviour is simply irreplaceable. Back aboard by mid-morning, salt on your wrists and stories for a lifetime.
