Why fish here

Why Christmas Island?

Located in the Central Pacific just 120 miles north of the equator, this remote coral atoll offers vast hard-bottom flats, crystal-clear water and an extraordinary density of fish -- consistent wade-fishing opportunities for beginners and experienced anglers alike.

  • Unmatched bonefish numbers
    Anglers regularly encounter dozens of fish per day in shallow water.
  • Accessible wading
    Hard coral flats allow safe, productive walk-and-wade fishing -- no boat required for most species.
  • Multiple target species
    Bonefish, giant trevally, triggerfish, bluefin trevally, milkfish and more, all in one destination.
  • Low fishing pressure
    Remote location keeps angler numbers low compared to Caribbean fisheries.
