FishingBooker, the world’s largest website for booking fishing charters, just announced the 7 best luxury fishing destinations for 2019, and Ambergris Caye is one of them. The list was created based on a number of factors such as user reviews, access to quality fishing, overall aesthetic of a place, and vicinity to luxury resorts, exclusive restaurants, and other lavish activities.
Located in the middle of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, Ambergris Caye boasts picture-perfect vistas and amazing weather year round. Private snorkeling tours will take visitors around the reef to see manatees, turtles, and Nurse Sharks.
The accommodation on the island is a big part of what makes this place so indulgent. There’s a myriad of boutique hotels, luxury lodges, and beachside villas to choose from, each more enticing than the next.
The bays, estuaries, creeks, and river mouths of the island are where anglers will find the best Tarpon, Permit, and Bonefish fishing known to man. And just a few miles offshore, the seabed drops by a staggering 1,400 feet. This means that Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, White and Blue Marlin are all on the menu in these waters.
