Why Farquhar is a paradise for GTs and dogtooth tuna
The Farquhar Atoll, lying 700 km south of Mahé, is one of the most isolated areas in the Seychelles. Its combination of reefs, strong currents, and steep drop-offs creates the perfect environment for large predators. Here, GTs patrol the reef edges, ready to smash surface lures with explosive strikes, while dogtooth tuna roam the depths, waiting to ambush jigs and deliver brutal fights that push tackle and anglers to their limits. A catamaran fishing charter Seychelles to Farquhar allows you to move between shallow reef zones for GTs and offshore drop-offs for dogtooth, maximizing your chances of landing true trophies.
Species to expect during a popping and jigging trip:
Each strike at Farquhar is pure adrenaline: a giant GT smashing a popper on the surface or a massive dogtooth tuna peeling line into the depths.

Best season for GT & dogtooth tuna at Farquhar, Seychelles
The prime time for a fishing trip to Farquhar is from October to May. During this period, conditions are perfect: calm seas, clear waters, and high predator activity. GTs aggressively patrol reefs and channels, while dogtooth tuna are particularly active along deep drop-offs, making popping and jigging extremely effective. From June to September, strong winds reduce accessibility and make fishing less comfortable, so YFS strongly recommends trips in the warm season for both safety and success.

Our catamaran trips are designed as full-scale expeditions where the journey is part of the adventure. Departing from Mahé or Desroches, we head to Farquhar aboard a spacious catamaran offering private cabins, relaxation areas, fresh meals, and casting decks designed for anglers. Fishing is organized around tides and conditions: - morning popping sessions on reefs for giant GTs, - afternoon jigging on drop-offs for dogtooth tuna and amberjacks, - offshore drifts for tuna and wahoo. The catamaran ensures total mobility, allowing access to every environment: reefs, channels, offshore edges, and deep structures.
