At the pirogue’s pace

A morning out on the water.

An early start, time fishing, then a return to the beach: a different way to explore the waters around Nosy Be.

The skill and the wait

The pirogue sets the pace. Watch the fishing techniques and the movement of the water; the outing follows the sea and wind conditions of the day.

Plan your outing

Go fishing at first light

Set off at dawn in a pirogue for a traditional fishing session. The morning continues ashore with a beach barbecue before the return journey. This half-day outing combines fishing at sea with time together on the shore.

Get ready for a morning at sea

Expect an early meeting time. Sea conditions vary with the wind and season, so Ginot confirms when to leave and what to bring. Ask about the fishing equipment when you arrange the booking.
