Day 1: Arrive Kiritimati — VIP Welcome
Arrive at Cassidy International Airport. Private transfer to Christmas Island Lodge. Welcome to your private room with en-suite bathroom. Meet your dedicated guide for the week — discuss target species, preferred fishing style, and dream fish. Afternoon: optional casting tune-up on the beach or a short welcome session to wash off the travel. Premium welcome dinner.
Days 2-7: Six Days Private Guided Fishing
Your private guide and boat are yours alone for six full days. The key advantage of private guiding on Christmas Island is flexibility: if bonefish are tailing on a flat at low tide that everyone else has left because their schedule says to move — you stay. If GTs are smashing bait on the outer reef — you go. If you want to spend two days hunting a specific trophy fish — you do.
What Private Guiding Unlocks:
• Unlimited casts at trophy bonefish — stay on the flat as long as it’s productive. No sharing the best shots with another angler.
• GT hunting on your terms — your guide takes you to the prime GT spots when conditions are perfect, not when the schedule dictates.
• Custom schedule — sunrise start? Midday break? Fish until dark? Your call, every day.
• Remote flats — visit areas that shared boats rarely reach due to time constraints.
• Undivided guide attention — your casting, your fly selection, your strategy gets 100% of your guide’s expertise.
A typical private guide day: dawn coffee → depart for the flats at your preferred time → fish at your pace all morning → beach lunch wherever you choose → afternoon session tailored to conditions → return to lodge → gear prep for tomorrow → dinner with tales of the day’s biggest fish.
Day 8: Final Morning & Departure
Optional private morning session — one last shot at the fish of a lifetime. Transfer to airport. The private guide experience means you’ve maximized every moment on the world’s greatest flats.
