A premier property on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, experts and beginners will enjoy fishing the famed Ascension Bay waters. Located within the protected Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve, with luxurious modern accommodations, experienced guides, eclectic fusion of Mexican and American food, and warm Mexican hospitality, Grand Slam Fishing Lodge is fast becoming a favorite for anglers and non-anglers alike.
With easy access to Ascension Bay and the inside lagoon system which runs north towards Boca Paila, you have plenty of fishing options during the day. Bonefish are most plentiful, however, permit rule for many visiting anglers. Tarpon, snook, jacks, snapper and barracuda are also available.
Six beachfront villas, each featuring 2 rooms with modern contemporary interiors, king-sized beds, air-conditioning, 24-hour electricity, and satellite television, you will have all the comforts of home. The main lodge features the Kai restaurant, bar, comfortable lounge area and more.
As a general rule, a 7- or 8-weight outfit for the bonefish, 9- or 10-weight outfit for the permit, both with tropical saltwater floating lines. A complete gear list will be sent upon confirmation. Frontiers can provide expert advice on finding the right gear for your trip.
The lodge is easily accessed via Cancun. It’s a 2-hour ride south in an air-conditioned van to the Ultimo Maya Pier near Tulum where you will meet your guide who will complete the remaining 55 minute transfer to the lodge by boat through the inside lagoon system. Activities for the non-angler include swimming, snorkeling, walking the beach and more. Off-site visits to a blue-hole cenote or the Mayan ruins in Tulum can be arranged for an additional fee.
You must possess a passport valid for 6 months after the last day of your trip.

Mexico offers some really excellent flats fishing and is very accessible to fishers coming from the UK. A direct flight to Cancun and then a vehicle transfer (or sometimes a short internal flight) gives you access to a variety of lodges where you will target permit, bonefish, tarpon and snook in the huge area of Ascension Bay.
