Anglers and guides pursue big and baby Tarpon, Cobia, Sea Trout, Snook, Barracuda and some Permit in in clear gulf waters, endless flats and mangrove lagoons. Non fishing partners mix horseback riding on the beach, sweet water cenote swimming, kayaking, windsurfing, birding and island exploration with hours of relaxation on the empty white sand beaches of this undiscovered island. You can also mix in a trip to Mayan Ruins or snorkel with the whale sharks. Many of our clients also choose to extend with a Bone Fishing trip to Ascension Bay.

The tarpon fly fishing adventure starts with your arrival at Cancun International Airport.  It is about a  2 hour flight from Miami or Houston. Many carriers service Cancun directly from many cities in the US and some good fares can be found.  You will be met after you clear customs by the driver for the lodge.  From there it is a 2 hour drive to Chiquila,  a fishing village on the northern Yucatan coast.The drive passes through a few interesting Mayan Villages along the way.  Once in Chiquila you will board a boat for the trip to Holbox (pronounced "Holbosch") It is a 20 minute boat ride to the village. You will be staying at the only fly fishing lodge on Holbox.   You will be shown to your room which is roomy and comfortable.  The lodge is right on the beach just a few blocks from the center of town.

The beach is shallow and easy to swim and it extends miles and miles to the east. Holbox is also famous for its conch population and big shells are a fairly common sight if you walk out of town a mile or so. The meals are included in your package as we have by far the finest restaurant on the island.  With Luciano as your host you get some wonderful food and excellent service.  Breakfast and lunch is included with e package as well as an open bar.  Dinners are on your own in one of the several restaurants in town.

For those on a fishing package you will be leaving early in the morning and a continental breakfast with coffee and juice will be waiting.  Lunches are packed and ready to go for the day out on the water.  If you are not fishing while here you will get breakfast a little later!.  Dinners are on your own in town!

This is fly fishing heaven, tarpon style!
