The Ultimate Island Getaway
Blue Horizons | Safari Fishing & Water Adventures
Trade dusty trails for rippling blues. Blue Horizons merges the thrill of safari with the serenity of water — from fly-fishing in tranquil rivers to deep-sea adventures along South Africa’s wild coast. Whether you’re reeling in a tigerfish or casting at dawn as hippos stir nearby, each experience captures the rhythm of nature at its most fluid. For those drawn to the call of the water, this is safari from a new perspective — soulful, refreshing, unforgettable.
Where the Wild Flows
There’s something timeless about water — its rhythm, its patience, its quiet strength.
Blue Horizons invites you to explore Africa through its waterways — tranquil rivers, shimmering lagoons, and vast coastlines where the horizon feels endless. From the delta channels of Botswana to the rugged Indian Ocean coast, each journey celebrates the harmony between nature and those who honour it.
This is not just a fishing trip — it’s a mindful adventure, designed for travellers who crave immersion, stillness, and the subtle thrill of pursuit. Guided by expert anglers and conservation-minded hosts, you’ll fish sustainably in pristine ecosystems where balance matters as much as the catch itself.
The Experience
Each Blue Horizons itinerary blends water-based exploration with eco-luxury hospitality.
Cast at sunrise across glassy channels as hippos stir nearby. Drift silently along riverbanks lined with papyrus and palm. Explore marine reserves where local communities protect coral and coastline. After each day on the water, return to intimate lodges built with natural materials and powered by the sun — places that reflect the same respect for the environment as Murray Collins and his partners envisioned when they pioneered a “light-footprint” approach to safari.
Culinary experiences mirror the journey: fresh, locally sourced ingredients prepared with care, paired with evenings around the fire or under a canopy of stars. It’s adventure softened by reflection — a rhythm as fluid as the water itself.
Why It’s Different
Every Blue Horizons journey is guided by a commitment to conservation and community.
Fishing is strictly catch-and-release, supporting healthy ecosystems and sustaining local livelihoods. Camps are staffed by residents of nearby villages, their knowledge of the land and water unmatched. Each experience contributes to long-term projects in education, habitat protection, and responsible tourism — echoing the philosophy Murray Collins and his founding partners championed: that true luxury lies in protecting what makes these places extraordinary.
You’ll leave with more than photographs or stories — you’ll carry a deeper respect for the natural world and your place within it.
Remote Island Journeys That Conserve Ocean Wilderness
Discover a world far beyond the ordinary — a collection of remote island journeys that conserve the wild heart of the ocean. In the far reaches of the Seychelles, where coral atolls scatter across the Indian Ocean, our barefoot lodges and catamarans stand as lone but luxurious outposts on the edge of civilization. Out here, there are no crowds, no velvet ropes, and no need for “do not disturb” signs. Instead, you’ll find yourself surrounded by unbroken horizons, where the rhythm of the tides replaces the noise of the world and where each stay directly contributes to preserving one of Earth’s last untouched Edens.
Our story unfolds across the most remote atolls of the Seychelles — places so pure that more turtle tracks than human footprints mark their beaches. On Alphonse Island, mornings begin with the sun rising over a shoreline alive with nature. This pristine paradise offers three tiers of comfort — from intimate Beach Bungalows and elegant Beach Villas to spacious four-bedroom Beach Retreats, perfect for families and friends seeking complete seclusion. Even farther afield lies Cosmoledo Atoll, a wild scattering of twenty-two uninhabited islands and islets where the number of sandbars outnumbers guests. Its pared-back camp invites a deeper connection to the lagoon, a place where simplicity becomes a form of luxury.
For those drawn to the call of open water, Quo Vadis — our 75-foot luxury catamaran — sails into complete isolation, charting a course through untouched islands. Custom-built for expedition-style journeys, it combines freedom and indulgence in equal measure, with a skilled crew ready to pour champagne or guide you into the unknown. At Astove Atoll, adventure turns almost spiritual: nights are spent just steps from a breathtaking underwater drop-off seen by fewer people than the summit of Everest, where coral walls plunge into sapphire depths alive with colour and life.
Each destination invites immersion rather than escape. Days unfold through diving and snorkelling in crystal lagoons, witnessing turtle hatchings at sunrise, joining conservation teams in protecting fragile ecosystems, or exploring mangrove forests and flats on guided nature expeditions. Those with a taste for quiet adventure can discover Alphonse by bicycle, kayak, or stand-up paddleboard, tracing the contours of an island shaped entirely by wind, tide, and time.
At the heart of every journey is purpose. Blue Safari Seychelles exists not only to reveal these far-flung wonders but to protect them. Through sustainable operations and partnerships with conservation groups, we’re restoring habitats, protecting endangered species, and ensuring that these fragile ecosystems endure. Each guest who visits contributes to this mission, helping preserve the extraordinary natural beauty of the Outer Islands — 72 remote coral atolls and islands, each an hour’s flight from Mahé yet worlds away from the ordinary.
For those who crave the rarest kind of luxury — space, stillness, and connection — these islands offer the chance to rediscover what travel once meant: wonder, discovery, and belonging to something greater than yourself. Here, in one of the last true Edens, you don’t just visit the wilderness — you become part of its story.
