Big Game Fishing & Safari Kenya
fishing overview
A natural habitat of order, beauty, luxury, peace and sensual indulgence.
Kenya is a great place for a tropical "Divorce Free" holiday, combining big-game fishing and big game watching on one of our fantastic safaris. The climate is fabulous, the people friendly and accommodating and the country itself is diverse and beautiful. As the name suggests, this becomes the true experience of Kenya with all she has to offer in terms of big-game. Come and experience the luxury accommodation and facilities at the world famous Hemingway's resort, before exploring the plains of Kenya. Be amazed at the simple luxury of your camp, in the middle of nowhere.
There is great variety of fishing, and plenty of other interesting things to do on non-fishing days. The pace of life is very relaxed. The coral gardens, just 2 km from the hotel, are spectacular and there is a wonderful tidal creek, just up the coast at Mida, a great place for bird watching, fishing, beach barbeques and sunset cruises. Big-game fishing is just for the macho men? Don't you believe it! If you've never fished before, are not-so-young, or of the fairer sex, "hakuna matata" - no problem. Our experienced crews are well versed at assisting anglers of all abilities.
Regardless of whether you are an angler, or non angler, no visit to Kenya is complete without a safari. A cramped mini-bus stuffed to the gills with fare-paying passengers, tearing from pillar to post is not our idea of a safari. We offer personal safaris, travelling in the comfort of a long wheeled base Land Rover. We stop when you want to stop and move on, when you want to. If you are interested in bird-life, then our guide will pay extra attention to fulfil your desires. Kenyans love their country and love to show it to you and what's more, nestled amongst the trees, overlooking a watering hole in the vast shrub land of Tsavo East lays our private camp. If your idea of a holiday is catching giant game fish, watching and photographing nature's unique wildlife in a natural habitat of beauty, luxury, peace and sensual indulgence, then this is for you.
