Christmas Island - Kiritimati Island - Republic of Kiribati
The largest coral atoll in the world, located in the Line Islands Group just 230km above the equator, Christmas Island enjoys predominately easterly breezes keeping the temperatures at around 26-30ºc.
The island is one of the world's great sea bird sanctuaries with 18 species identified & estimated 6 million birds using the atoll as a breeding site. The lagoon hosts a dazzling array of marine life.
The Fishing
With endless white flats
as far as the eye can see... Christmas Island is as close as you can get to utopia for the sight casting junkie...
Christmas Island is blessed with consistent year-round weather making it one of the world’s best year-round fisheries.
The bonefish, also known as “phantom” or “gray ghost”, is pound for pound one of the strongest and fastest running saltwater fish. They can attain speeds of over 20 miles per hour – their initial runs are devastatingly fast!
In addition to bonefish, there are several species of trevally, wahoo, tuna and many reef species. The giant trevally can be as big as 100lb – however the trevally are more commonly in the 5 to 50lb range – still with a very impressive surface strike!
The Boats
Christmas Island Outfitters are a small, personalized operation. By design, they have limited their program to no more than eight anglers per week.
They have two outrigger style boats and one centre console boat.

Each is equipped with:
- Bath & shower;
- Ceiling fans;
- Screened windows;
- Refrigerator;
- Table with chairs.
Meals are a simple combination of Island style and Western fare guaranteed to satisfy the appetite of hungry anglers.
The Guides
Christmas Island Outfitters head guide is Peter Kairaio. Peter is recognized as one of the Island’s top guides and he will be joined by a small group of hand picked professionals who are amongst the islands most skilled and personable guides.
All have excellent eyes for spotting fish, calm temperaments under the pressure of sight fishing and are skilled instructors.
The lodge boasts a highly flexible fishing program that can take full advantage of varying tides and fishing conditions.
