El Pescador Resort

El Pescador's beachfront lodge and villas are situated on 40 private acres with ambiance, specializing in fishing and eco-adventures. We are family-owned and operated with emphasis on creating camaraderie and an authentic Belizean experience. El Pescador is proud of our philosophy to protect and nurture friendship, adventure and the environment. El Pescador has long been known as a world-class fishing destination offering outstanding flats fishing for bonefish, tarpon and permit. El Pescador has been the only resort on Ambergris Caye specializing in saltwater flats fishing since 1974. El Pescador was also among the key organizations to implement the Law protecting bonefish, tarpon and permit as catch and release species. This is the most all encompassing legislation of its kind worldwide. It is great news for Belizeans, anglers, tourists and conservationists alike. Forbes Traveler has named El Pescador resort as one of the Top 10 luxury Eco-Resorts in the world. The Orvis Company has honored El Pescador as their International Destination of the Year twice. El Pescador is a serene and gracious establishment on the doorstep of the world's largest living Barrier Reef. El Pescador offers accommodations in guest rooms within its colonial style, mahogany main lodge, as well as in 1, 2, and 3 bedroom beachfront villas. The villas are perfect accommodations for couples seeking romance and privacy, and for families and small groups traveling together. All rooms and villas are beachfront and have unobstructed views of the Caribbean sea's blue waters. In addition to fishing, this first-rate resort offers all the eco-adventures which take full advantage of Belize's exotic flora and fauna. Scuba diving, snorkeling, manatee watching, cave-tubing and zip-lining, and Maya archaeological explorations are just a small assortment of the activities available while staying at El Pescador.
