About Us

The same passion. A new perspective.

Fishing Istanbul brings the Fishing Bodrum approach to Istanbul: private groups, crew guidance, fishing equipment and a day shaped around the people aboard.
Our Istanbul programmes pair the views of the Bosphorus with hands-on fishing. Small private groups allow the crew to explain equipment to beginners and adapt the fishing approach for more experienced guests.
ORION adds the character of a classic wooden yacht: a sheltered cockpit, warm lounge and thoughtful onboard spaces. Every trip is planned around the target, season and prevailing sea conditions.

A distinctive way to discover Istanbul.

Discover Istanbul from the water aboard ORION — a distinctive wooden yacht offering private fishing adventures and scenic Bosphorus experiences.
