The Fly Shop® is not in the insurance business, but we recommend RedPoint and Global Rescue (IMG) coverage as a service with a desire to see your best interests protected. It is impossible to know when an unfortunate situation (loss of luggage, fly rods, illness in the family, or an accident) may occur. However, such things can and do happen, and this insurance can provide a means of recourse against non-refundable financial losses.

Fishing Days
Breakfast is served from 7am in the hotel. You will meet the guide at the boat, which is located in the marina just behind the hotels swimming pool. It is just right there, easy to find. You will have 6 fully guided days fishing which includes lunch and water/soft drinks on board. Days are flexible, but you will return to the marina around 4pm. Evenings are at your own leisure, with a dinner served any time from 4pm to 10pm. A variety of options are available from the fixed menu of the hotel restaurant. You can also order off of the menu for additional cost, or visit one of the many other restaurant options inside the resort complex.

Depart Salalah International Airport
Check out is by noon. You will then be transferred back to Salalah International airport for your flight home.

The hotel offers luxurious, air conditioned rooms, perfect to relax after a long hot day out on the water. Rooms are comfortable and spacious and have balconies overlooking the marina. Amenities include 2 international restaurants, a bar, 2 large swimming pools and a state of the art wellness center and treatment rooms.

Within the marina there are many boutique shops, cafes, restaurants, a bar overlooking the marina, a dive center, long stretches of pristine white sandy beaches, a waterslide park and 2 spas. This along with the many exciting activities and sights that Oman has to offer means that non fishing partners or family members can also enjoy a wonderful holiday away.

Breakfast is buffet style, with a choice of hot and cold dishes, breads, pastries, cold meat, fresh fruit and cereals. In addition, fresh fruit juices and coffee are freely available. You will enjoy a wonderful fresh lunch on the boat each day. All of the boats have a cooler onboard to keep lunch and snacks cool and fresh, and the guides will ensure that there are plenty of cold drinks available throughout the day.

Beer is illegal on the boat in Oman! But you can purchase beer and liquor from the hotel as soon as you get off the boat.

Dinners each evening are at your own leisure, with multiple restaurant options that serve any time from when you get off the boat until 10pm. A variety of options are available from the fixed menu of the hotel restaurant, which is included in the package price. You can also order off of the menu for additional cost, or visit one of the many other restaurant options inside the Hawana Marina resort complex. If you head out to fish in the Bluewater and are fortunate enough to land a Yellowfin Tuna, you can drop it off at the Island Bar on your return and they will prepare it for dinner that evening. Fresh tuna sashimi with soy sauce and wasabi, followed by a seared tuna entrée, makes for an amazing end to a fishing day!

Indo-Pacific Permit (T. Blochii) as they tail in the shallows or casting to Large-spot Pompano and Bluefish and the occasional Giant Trevally!

Fishing for the Africanus is absolutely incredible though… If you are considering this destination, you are likely a permit junky and these fish will not disappoint. They feed on top of boulders, in the crashing swell against the cliffs, eating mussels off of the rocks, as well as any little crustacean or other nuggets that get in front of them. As the wave recedes, you will see them tailing hard, heads down, ripping their food from the rocks, then the next wave comes and blasts them all around. It is absolutely incredible to watch! In all of this loud pandemonium, the fish are not as spooky as their cousins in the Atlantic. You have to hit the fish with the fly. A gentle cast off to the side will not get it done. Drill it in there, a couple feet past them, let it sink, then get the slack out and hopefully get the outgoing wave to suck it into them. It is nerve racking to get all of that to happen properly, as they tail like crazy and you try to slide a cast in there, in between waves, as the boat bucks in the swell against the cliffs… Exciting is an understatement!
Oman's coastline is formed up of sprawling sandy beaches, secluded rocky bays and sheer jagged cliffs that plunge dramatically into the ocean. With the Gulf of Oman in the north and the Arabian Sea in the south (a region of the north Indian ocean) Oman's landscape is truly diverse.
The Sultanate of Oman is situated on the south eastern side of the Arabian Peninsula. In the 19th Century it was a powerful empire, extending across to Iran and Pakistan and all the way south to Zanzibar, competing with Portugal and Britain for influence in the Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean. In the 20th century the Sultanate came under the influence of the United Kingdom. Historically, Muscat (modern day capital of Oman) was the principal trading port of the Persian Gulf region and was also among the most important trading ports in the Indian Ocean.
Relatively hard to access, until the 1970s when Sultan Qaboos Bin Said came in to power, he brought economic reform and modernization to the country opening it up to the rest of the world.
Oman’s economy is reliant on its oil resources and petroleum products which have helped to rapidly develop the country. Both agriculture and fishing are important sources of incomes, and more recently a fast growing tourism sector. Oman's attractions include a largely untouched coastline, rugged mountain ranges, beautiful riverbeds or Wadi’s as they are referred to and vast sand dune filled deserts. There are also many towns steeped in rich history, with their forts, palaces and walled cities. It is truly a mystical and untouched destination with the most welcoming local people you could ever wish to meet.
