Turneffe Flats

Turneffe Flats
International


Located on Turneffe Atoll, about 30 miles or a 90 minute boat ride from Belize City, Turneffe Flats is an angler’s vacation paradise. Saltwater fly-fishers have the unique opportunity to sight–fish wadeable flats for permit, bonefish, and tarpon. Guided fishing is from 16-foot Super Skiff flats boats.

There are few places in the world where a Grand Slam – permit, tarpon and bonefish in one day – is a distinct possibility. Turneffe Flats is one of them.

Turneffe Flats is truly a remarkable fishery. Located on the eastern (seaward) side of Turneffe Atoll, there are miles upon miles of hard-bottom wadeable flats – with the softer flats fished from Dolphin Super Skiffs.

Nestled on a picturesque private point – coconut palms swaying in the breeze – you’ll have a panoramic view of the reef in either direction. Since 1981, Turneffe Flats has provided all the comforts of home in a beautiful, fish-friendly, English-speaking, tropical paradise.

The lodge offers three different accommodation choices: Beach Cabanas, Reef Villa and Garden Villa. Beach cabanas are right on the beach with a view of Turneffe’s reef and just yards from a wadeable bonefish flat that’s also great for snorkeling! The Reef Villa has a common room complete with satellite television and three nicely appointed guest rooms. The Garden Villa has a large comfortable common room, complete with satellite television and three guest rooms, each with a queen and single bed. All are fully air conditioned with private baths. All are just steps away from the saltwater infinity swimming pool.

American, European and Belizean meals are served family-style.
