With its east and west coastlines providing excellent opportunities for saltwater fly fishing, Mexico is a popular destination for anglers from across the world. Flying into Cancun, a playground in itself, there are numerous excellent lodges and guiding operations on the east coast such as the world-famous Ascension Bay region.

Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula and Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve forms the backdrop to wonderful mangrove creek systems and flats teeming with Permit, Bonefish and juvenile Tarpon. This includes Espiritu Santo Bay and Chetumal which all provide great flats fishing and the chance of a grand slam.

North of Cancun, there is some very good migratory tarpon fishing in Holbox and Campeche, with Whale Sharks a regular attraction while the west coast including the Baja Peninsula is famous for the majestic Roosterfish.
