Aitutaki, COOK ISLANDS Hosted TRIP, APRIL 2027

AITUTAKI: NEW HOSTED TRIP DATES FOR 2027

Join us from April 23 to May 01, 2027 on Aitutaki (pronounced “eye-too-TAH-key”) for an exclusive hosted expedition to one of the South Pacific’s most remarkable fly fishing locations.

Aitutaki’s vast turquoise lagoon, rimmed by coral motus and white-sand flats, sets the stage for an extraordinary week of sight-fishing.

Unlike our more rugged Fanning Island or other South Pacific fly fishing destinations, this week is designed for anglers who want both world-class fishing and high quality lodgings with boutique comfort. We base ourselves right on the beach at Aitutaki Village, where you’ll enjoy fresh island cuisine, lagoon views, kayaks, and seamless access to the water.

Over our fishing days, you’ll stalk trophy bonefish across gin-clear flats and test your skills against trigger fish and trevally, — including the occasional giant trevally. Local guides with years of experience on the lagoon will lead you to the most productive areas, ensuring long, rewarding days on the water.

This carefully timed week takes advantage of darker nights in the waning gibbous moon phase with less night illumination, lifting tide activity and stable water for spotting milky lagoon activity. With only six rods available, every angler enjoys personalized hosting and attentive support from our team. Evenings are relaxed and social, with great food and cold drinks shared right at the water’s edge. We travel to a fine dining restaurant on our final night together (included in the trip fare).

Spaces are strictly limited, and once the roster is filled, it’s gone until we decide to visit again, likely later in 2027. So secure your place now for an unforgettable week of fishing, hosting, and island hospitality in the magical Cook Islands.
