Imagine doing two of the things you love the most; that is fishing and relaxing on a private island in the beautiful Caribbean, where the sun is warm, the sea is crystal clear and the beverages are ice cold. After your morning fish you come back to the island for a siesta or you can lie on the beach, sip on an ice cold beer, snorkel the spectacular fringe reef right off the beach or grab a kayak and go explore. What more could you ask for, this is a fisherman's Hog Heaven, where you are getting up to 20 shots a day at the elusive permit, and when you just want to take it easy but still fish, just grab your coffee and we stroll right out into Tarpon Caye's Lagoon and get some shots at some tarpon to get you warmed up.
Imagine doing all this from a private island in the Caribbean, where you are away from the over-crowded resorts.
Charlie Leslie's Tarpon Caye Lodge is an in-tuned with nature, down to earth, family owned and oriented lodge located on our small 10 acre caye (island) just 15 miles east of the famous Placencia Peninsula in southern Belize (which is know to be Mother Nature's Best Kept Secret).
Our lodged has been designed and geared toward fishermen who are looking to chase the elusive permit, the big tarpon or the feisty bonefish, or all three.
Every year we make upgrades to our island facilities for we also want to cater to people looking for an island retreat with a more down to earth feel which will not cost you a second home mortgage, but still have all the necessary amenities that you would enjoy at the over-priced resorts.
Belize being only a 2 hour flight from Miami, Florida and only 6 hours from California there is nothing stopping you from having a wonderful vacation on our beautiful private, exclusive island in Placencia, Belize, Central America!
A Typical Fishing Day:
If you choose, your typical fishing day may begin at 4 a.m., just before the sun rises off the barrier reef to the east. The coffee starts brewing while fresh fruit, toast and jam are waiting on the table to satisfy you until breakfast later in the morning. This signals the start of your early morning fishing at Charlie Leslie's Tarpon Caye Lodge.
Just a few minutes away is Tarpon Caye Lagoon where you usually will begin fishing for tarpon. Youll have opportunities for permit and bonefish on any given day, according to the optimum tide for each species, which Charlie has a very rare gift of predicting. There is a good variety of game fish, including jacks, barracuda, mackerel and other species.
Our fishing day starts at: 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. These times will give our clients optimum tides throughout the day.
