The Fishing

BonefishThe fertile waters of Xcalak have long been world renown for bonefishing, with flats holding incredible numbers of bonefish year round. Most of these fish are in the 2 to 4 pound size class, although fish up to 7 pounds are very common! 

PermitSituated in one of the most unspoiled coastal environments in the world, Xcalak is the perfect place to hunt permit. With less angling pressure than nearby Belize and abundant fish ranging from 5 to 50 pounds, Xcalak truly is a permit fishing paradise! 

Other SpeciesCasa Cangrejo boasts year round fishing opportunities for tarpon of all sizes, as well as for numerous other species such as snook, jacks, barracuda, and sharks!
