You too can find bliss and tarpon, bonefish, permit and jack - at one of El Pescador's lodges on Ambergris Caye or Punta Gorda, Belize. For over 25 years, El Pescador has been the choice of the world's top anglers. The Spanish name "El Pescador" means "the fisherman", and they cater to all types of anglers, specializing in light tackle, salt water, and fly fishing with all activities concentrated on the sea, both on the reef and on the flats.

El Pescador Punta Gorda is located in the undiscovered paradise of the Toledo District in southern Belize. The resort encompasses 470 acres nestled in coastal mountains and rainforest along 1.5 miles of the Rio Grande. The clear blue river offers swift and easy access to the Flats and Cayes of the Caribbean Sea 20 minutes downstream. El Pescador PG is recognized as one of the most diverse angling destinations due to the proximity to the famous fishing grounds of Punta Icacos, Wild Cane Cayes, Snake Caye, Punta Negra and the hundreds of tiny islands which encompass the world-renowned Permit Flats, in addition to the numerous freshwater lagoons and rivers, including Golden Stream, Deep River, Temash and Moho, all just minutes away by boat.

Species and Seasons


Season: Year Around, with April-August being prime season
Primary Species: Tarpon, Bonefish, Permit
Other Species: Barracuda, Snapper, Jacks, Black-tip Shark and other reef fish

Accommodations and Amenities


El Pescador Punta Gorda offers 12 magnificently appointed individual cabanas terraced above a jungle hillside atop the Rio Grande. Each generous cabana is furnished with two queen size beds, a sitting area including a day bed, private bath with hand-made ceramic tile, luggage storage and rod holders. All areas of the hotel have potable water at every tap! Your cabana is equipped with all the amenities including air conditioning. However, the cool river valley evenings and cieling fans will keep you comfortable most of the year. Each cabana comes with its own private veranda overlooking the brilliant vistas of vast jungle reserves and the wildlife corridor.

At El Pescador Ambergis Caye, guests have a choice: stay in the main lodge, or in one of the luxury villas. El Pescador lodge is an intimate, 12-room, one suite hotel set in a colonial style mahogony building with a long veranda overlooking the beach and barrier reef. All rooms have private baths, overhead fans and air-conditioning, and are just steps away from our swimming pool adjacent to the beach. All rooms face the sea. El Pescador Villas are a collection of four luxury three-bedroom Villas, set in tropical gardens surrounding a private pool. You may enjoy the entire Villa as a home-away-from-home, or request only the portions, since each suite can lock-off into a private unit. Reserve one master suite, or a master suite and the Great Room - just tell us what configuration works best for you!
