What is the fishing like?

The waters around Ambergris Caye offer a great variety of saltwater fishing. Most types of fish, including bone fish and tarpon, can be caught year-round. Within 15 minutes of leaving the dock, you can be fishing in tidal flats or in blue water hundreds of feet deep.

Cost for charters depends on the type of fishing (reef, deep sea, or bone and tarpon), the size of the boat, number of anglers, time of year and current bank balance of the captain, but expect to pay around US$150 to $255 per person for a full day's reef and deep sea fishing trip, including bait and tackle, beer, soft drinks and lunch.
