The Lodge

Costa de Cocos occupies a beautiful stretch of beach just north of the village of Xcalak. There are about 500 residents in this little fishing village.   I think that means something like 5,435,206 bonefish per resident - I'm just making that up but the point is there are thousands of square miles of bonefish, permit and tarpon terrain within easy reach of the lodge. and there is very little fishing pressure.  Nestled in between Belize and Ascension Bay it is a very under fished fishery.

The lodge itself consists of 16 stone and wood cabanas with thatched roofs, a restaurant and bar and white sand everywhere you look.  They even have their own desalinization plant that assures plenty of purified water for the resort.  There are  five staff guides and boats at the disposal of our fishing guests.  We also get groups for Kayaking and diving because of the this beautiful section of the reef just off shore.  In between that reef and shore are bonefish and permit so don't be surprised when you see sunlight glinting off a  clear forked tail as you walk the beach at sunset.  ( Take your fly rod, Bonefish don't know it is a resort.)

Your room can be set up as two singles or as a king or queen depending on your needs.  Each cabana has a private bathroom with shower, toilet, sink and of course hot water and electricity 24 hours a day ( a luxury in this part of the world). From any room the warm water of the Caribbean is just a few yards away.  Bonefish are just a few feet further!

The restaurant  and bar is at your service each evening  and the menu offers plenty of the freshest fish and lobster ( in season)   each evening as well as choices of chicken and other dishes each evening.  Breakfast is served as early as you need  based on the fishing schedule you and your guide will work out. It is a simple continental breakfast.  Lunch consisting of sandwiches, snacks, fruit , water and beer are provided on board the boat ( or at the restaurant if you are not fishing that day)

Enjoy your stay, you may never leave, just like the owners did a few years ago! They are on site to make sure you enjoy every moment of your stay at Costa de Cocos
