Whipray Caye Lodge |
|
Owned and operated by Julian Cabral and his American wife Beverly, Whipray (Aka.Whippari) Caye Lodge is custom made for serious salt-water fishermen and the independent traveler wanting to step away from everyday stress into a pure and natural world - where the fast pace comes to a splashing halt. This is a very remote and unspoiled area - one of the few remaining in the Western Hemisphere. With warm smiles and ice cold Belikins at the ready, Julian and Bev make it very easy to unwind and adjust to the slow rhythms of island life. A charming little island getaway, Whipray (Whippari on some charts) Caye is surrounded by some of the finest permit waters found anywhere as well as an abundance of snorkeling-worthy coral and sea life. After reading this page you may want some more details by using the links found up and to the right of this text, they will overlay a specific detail page. For more pictures try out our new photo gallery topics also on the right, a little further down the page. Your trip starts with your arrival at the International Airport in Belize City. We take over from there. You will board a commuter plane shortly after you clear customs and fly to Placencia about a 20 minute flight. You will need to hire a taxi to the town boat dock for the 40 minute ride out to Paradise ( Whippari Caye). This is a serious fishing destination with few frills but lots of fishing time. The Island is small with some native palms, mangroves and other vegetation. On the Island you have the Central restaurant and bar, the main house, a guide cabana and 4 guest cabanas. There are fish all around the island and this permit was taken right off the dock! Your day starts at the agreed time with you and your guide. It may be earlier than sunrise if the tides are such that this offers the best shot at the species you are seeking. The guides have no problem getting up to hit the right conditions. Breakfast is served and lunches are loaded into the boats and off you go. As close as 5 minutes for some of the permit flats to as long as an hour for tarpon ( depending on the season) There are hundreds of islands and flats that dot this area between the barrier reef and the main land. You will rarely see another boat. At the end of the day you will return to your private island for a few beers, maybe a margarita and a great dinner. There is no shortage of food. See if you can sit still while a bonefish tails in the setting sun while you have a beer in your hands. If you can you have finally relaxed and are a member of fly fishing heaven!
