VANUATU FISHING ESCAPE  

6 DAY FISHING TRIP – 28 July 2013

AUD 3995 - NZD 4995 PER PERSON - Includes one night at Holiday Inn, Port Vila.

Every year we operate a limited 3 week fishing season in Vanuatu. These trips are popular and sell out well in advance. Bookings should be made as early as possible. These positions are sold on a full charter basis with a maximum of 16 anglers on each charter.

Island Passage offers a range of blue water sport fishing, game fishing and fly-fishing escapes that depart from downtown Port Vila. From here we are on the doorstep of the Marlin Highway. We have fantastic fishing opportunities with numerous coral reefs, seamounts and deep-water trenches. If you are looking for a fishing destination that produces great results - look no further than ‘The Floating Fishing Lodge’.

  •      The trip was perfect , the crew made our trip what it was. I would recommend it to anyone that is coming your direction from the U.S.A.

  •      There is a downside to the trip. After you leave the ship you'll find it difficult to adjust to life ashore. But you can also expect a fuller heart... once it mends

  •      This was our first visit to NZ (from Australia) and we think our introduction to the Hauraki Gulf with this cruise was first class. The crew, without exception were wonderful. Activities cater for everyone, do as much or as little as you like....we will certainly be recommending this cruise to our friends.
