Playa Blanca, Mexico

The Fishery

Ideally located just a short boat ride away, Playa Blanca offers some of the most exclusive access to Espirito Santo Bay. The Bay is smaller than the larger fishery to the north Ascension Bay, but it unquestionable one of the best and least traffic fisheries in the Caribbean. Playa Blanca keeps the pressure at ease with a max of 6 skiffs and up to 12 anglers at a time. Espirito Santo Bay is ideal for the avid Permit hunter or beginning saltwater angler alike. The boca(mouth) of the Bay is a bit of a natural attraction for fish entering and exiting the shallows sandy bay. Large schools as well as giant Permit congregate in deeper water before they slide on the flats to feed. Inside the bay all of the primary flats species can be encountered on any given day. Bonefish are plentiful with a wide variety of size. Chase larger single tailing fish or rack up numbers precisely picking individuals out of schools. The inner bay has ideal habitat for Juvenile Tarpon and snook who wait to ambush baitfish. Additionally the inner bay is home to some of the largest schools of Permit anywhere. The combination of species make Espirito Santo Bay an ideal location for anglers to get the Grand Slam or Super Grand Slam.

Accomodations

Playa Blanca is unique in that it is located on a private
island with close to 20 miles of private beach front access. The lodge has 7
spacious suites with large private bathrooms, walk in showers, and individual
A/C Units. The suites can be set up with 2 double beds or a king bed
configuration making this an ideal location for fishing buddies and couples
alike. Fresh lines, maculate room service and free daily laundry are all part
of the luxuries that set Playa Blanca apart from many lodges.

 

The beach front setting makes Playa Blanca a wonderful
vacation for those who want to kick back in the smooth white sand. Just feet
from your room miles of private picturesque beaches allow for anglers and
non-anglers to relax on while visiting. At the end of the day of fishing sip on
handmade Margaritas at the Palapa bar and dip in the ideal Caribbean
waters. 

 

In addition, to some of the most beautiful beaches anywhere,
Playa Blanca has Choc Mol Mayan Ruins on site. Visit the old stone village and
remaining structures to take a step back in time and imagine how the indigenous
lived. 

 

Playa Blanca is a 5-star lodge with a location that can’t be
matched by the majority of angling lodges.
