Trip Information
Program
One of the benefits of traveling to CXI is that you get to enjoy a couple of days in Hawaii, home to some of the biggest bonefish in the world. These fish are varsity level when it comes to intelligence, so you have to bring your A game. For our Colorado based clients, it can be quite a jump to go from casting 4wt rods to an 8wt, and if you’re chasing GT’s, consider trying to get a 12wt rod/broom stick to bend without hauling your line. Not easy. I highly recommend taking a day or two in Hawaii to train your eyes for seeing fish, as well as work on your casting.
What’s Included
Once you get to CXI, all of your meals, lodging and ground transportation are included. We work with Christmas Island Outfitters and stay at Crystal Beach. You will have the best and most friendly guides on the island working with you as you depart by truck or catamaran for the day. Sight fishing is the name of the game here as shallow water and tailing fish make CXI so special. Bonefish in the 2 to 4 pound class are abundant. The population keeps getting healthier since locals are not being able to keep as many bones, so it makes for an ever increasing 5 to 10 pound possibility. Click the link below for more details.

$2690 is your package price not including airfare to Hawaii or CXI. This will add around $1500 to your trip. Also not included are gear, fishing license, gratuity for your guide ($20 U.S. a day), gratuity for the staff, alcohol, or your meals and lodging while in Hawaii. So a typical trip to Christmas Island with a stay in HW will be around $4500.
