Luxury Holidays Oceans & Islands Holidays Fishing

There’s nothing quite like the thrill of feeling your line tighten as the bait is taken and your reel begins to scream. Whether your preference is for casting flies for wild rainbow trout from the banks of a remote Andean river, battling with barracuda off a coral reef in the Maldives, playing a blue marlin on a South Pacific deep-sea fishing adventure or chasing tarpon in the Central American jungles, Scott Dunn can help you realise your angling dreams.

Scott Dunn has a carefully selected portfolio of luxury fishing lodges and prime fishing destinations around the world that will appeal to the experienced angler and beginner alike. You can fish your heart out by day, picking up plenty of tips from experienced guides, before settling back into the comfort of your lodge or hotel in the evening and swapping stories over dinner about the one that got away.

For dedicated anglers, there are lodges that provide week-long fishing-only packages, while others offer shorter stays or day trips, which are ideal for those who would like to combine a little fishing with their other interests on holiday. But even if your partner or family don’t fish, by choosing the right property, you can all have a great time. Many of our lodges and hotels that offer fishing are located in beautiful natural surroundings, often amid breathtaking mountain scenery or on a stunning beach, and offer a range of other activities from horse riding, trekking and wildlife viewing to snorkelling, diving and spa treatments that will keep all your fellow travellers happy.

Our fishing pages are divided into four sections – ‘Deep sea fishing’, ‘Reef & line fishing’, ‘Freshwater angling’ and ‘Saltwater fly-fishing’ – and we hope they will give you the inspiration you are looking for. In tandem with our ethos of travelling responsibly, Scott Dunn does not endorse trophy fishing, and we prefer to work with establishments that are committed to sustainable fishing.

Deep sea fishing»
Take time to dust down your copy of The Old Man and the Sea, and prepare for some thrilling sport fishing action.

 

Reef & line fishing»
Reef and line fishing generally offers greater flexibility, as it's easy to fit a half or full-day’s fishing into your itinerary. Therefore we have focussed on top-class properties located in great fishing areas.

 

Salt water fly fishing»
Imagine yourself standing in crystal clear water, on a perfect white sandy beach, in short shirtsleeves, listening to your reel howl as a 6lb bonefish takes you all the way down to your backing line...

 

Fresh water angling»
Purists regard freshwater fly-fishing as the ultimate expression of the sport, and Scott Dunn has selected a handful of the very best fishing lodges that offer some of the world’s finest fly-fishing.
