A versatile flats program in a protected fishery 35 minutes north of Cancun with accommodation options in the reasonably priced city hotel or a premier deluxe resort. Anglers enjoy a great tarpon resource for resident juveniles and migratory trophies and snook, permit, bonefish, jacks, barracuda, and other species. If choosing a resort, it’s a great place to take a non-fishing companion. With so many direct flights to Cancun, it’s one of the easiest quality saltwater programs to access.

Two options: the boutique Blanca Lodging or the deluxe Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres. This program is ideal for people serious fishermen who are looking good fishing and couples who want to fish and enjoy other activities during the stay.
