3.5 Hour Trip - Coastal (MAX 2) on February 19, 2025
We had a very successful fishing trip with Gerry and his partner. They took us to a spot with lots of fish which made my son super happy. I would definitely book with Gerry again and will recommend him to my friends when they visit Mahe.

Your captain
Bel Ombre, Seychelles
I grew up on the Beau Vallon Beach. On school holidays, I went to help the fishermen pull in the fishing nets very early in the morning and also I was very interested in water sports. And in the early '70's, I was one of the first local boys to be a waterski instructor and paragliding boat operator. In 1981, I bought my first boat and have been providing private charters since then.
