EL PESCADOR - AMBERGRIS
TRIP DESCRIPTION
The El Pescador Family invites you to join them for a relaxing stay at our seaside Fishing Lodge. The colonial style lodge, situated on a private coconut studded beach, is slightly isolated and away from the hustle and bustle of crowds yet close enough to San Pedro to enjoy a day shopping or an evening in town. El Pescador is nestled on the Bahia del Punta Arena with an immaculate beach of graceful palms and flowering tropical plants. Your hosts live on the premises to ensure warm, personal service around the clock. Your trip begins with your arrival into Belize City. You will need to board a small plane for the final flight to the island. A representative from El Pescador will meet you at t airstrip for the short boat ride out to the lodge.
El Pescador has been recognized by top anglers for over 25 years. Catering to all types of fishermen, the lodge specializes in light tackle, salt water, fly fishing for Tarpon, Bonefish, Permit and Jack Crevalle. Our shallow water contains the only classic tarpon flats outside of south Florida. Our Flats are also world renowned for the opportunity to site cast to tarpon 12 months per year. Come to El Pescador and achieve an angler's ultimate dream- a Grand Slam!
"There are loads of destinations in the Americas where you can experience good fishing for one species or another... There is one destination however, where tarpon, snook, permit and bonefish are all fair game. You should experience El Pescador Lodge on the ocean side of Ambergris Caye, Belize. I have... and I'll be back... As soon as I get off the diet that I needed when I returned home." -Flip Pallot
Although the lodge caters to fly fishing enthusiasts our guides are happy with conventional gear as well.. Extra rods, reels, and tackle are available at the lodge. Go outside the reef into the deep water for Billfish and Wahoo, cast the lagoons for Lady Fish or Snook, troll the reef for King fish or Barracuda, jig the bottom for Snapper and Grouper ...or head out to the tarpon flats with a fly rod in your hand! Our courteous, English Speaking Fishing Guides are trained to accommodate every type of angler at every skill level. "Bliss in Belize....a rod, a reel and a tarpon". - Time Magazine
