"Grandslam" fly fishing in Cayo Largo

The incredible warm and pristine waters that surround the island were declared a Natural Park by Cuban Government. The 27.000 square kilometers of the Canarreos Archipelago has about 350 islets and keys forming a unique Caribbean paradise, providing ideal structure and environment for saltwater fly fishing.

The submarine shelf extends to the northern side of Cayo Largo, where the best fly fishing areas have an average depth of 1,5 meters making it a perfect habitat for Bonefish, Permit, Tarpon, and Jack Crevalle.

The wide "exclusive " fly fishing area is subdivided in 38 micro-areas. Most of Cayo Largo flats offer great conditions for wade fishing, shallow and firm bottoms provide perfect wading opportunities, having the chance to fish some out of the skiff and also wade fish a lot!

The best sight fishing in this stunning flats usually happens between 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (less sun glare). It's not unusual to find and see Permit up to 45lb zipping and darting in and around schools of Bonefish where the average weight is about 6lbs. You just can not beat stalking these Bonefish while wading in this pristine waters.

Each evening the anglers, manager and the guides will gather together and decide the next day schedule, always trying to carefully rotate between the most productive areas ensuring the bits are rested.

You can make it a family program too!
