WHIPPARI CAYE LODGE
Your trip starts with your arrival at the International Airport in Belize City. We take over from there. You will board a commuter plane shortly after you clear customs and fly to Placencia about a 20 minute flight. You will need to hire a taxi to the town boat dock for the 40 minute ride out to Paradise ( Whippari Caye). This is a serious fishing destination with few frills but lots of fishing time. The Island is small with some native palms, mangroves and other vegetation. On the Island you have the Central restaurant and bar, the main house, a guide cabana and 4 guest cabanas. There are fish all around the island and this permit was taken right off the dock!
Your day starts at the agreed time with you and your guide. It may be earlier than sunrise if the tides are such that this offers the best shot at the species you are seeking. The guides have no problem getting up to hit the right conditions. Breakfast is served and lunches are loaded into the boats and off you go. As close as 5 minutes for some of the permit flats to as long as an hour for tarpon ( depending on the season) There are hundreds of islands and flats that dot this area between the barrier reef and the main land. You will rarely see another boat. At the end of the day you will return to your private island for a few beers, maybe a margarita and a great dinner. There is no shortage of food. See if you can sit still while a bonefish tails in the setting sun while you have a beer in your hands. If you can you have finally relaxed and are a member of fly fishing heaven!
