The Bahia Honda Sporting Club is the only fully inclusive lodge in the Florida Keys. Our private lodge is a serene escape with excellent fishing, exceptional cuisine, and personalized service. We ensure every detail exceeds expectations.
Fishing
We contract local independent guides we have relationships with, all great, very friendly guys at the top of their game. Guides meet us each morning at breakfast; their agendas depend on both fishing conditions and angler preferences. They pick up and drop off our anglers at our dock so there’s no driving in vehicles necessary.
Our anglers rotate guides daily, getting time and leadership from each guide on our team, learning different nuances and approaches to catching fish.
What makes tarpon fishing in the Keys unique to most other places on earth, is the large number of really big adult fish in very shallow, clear water.
Average size tarpon caught is 50-150 lbs.
We host both fly-casters as well as conventional spin fishermen.Previous experience is not required. We like to focus on tarpon, but also target permit, bonefish, many other flats species, as well as offshore fishing, and we offer night-fishing trips for tarpon.
The Lodge
Our lodge is a beautiful Mediterranean-style villa on the open water, amid a sixteen-acre estate, surrounded by a large wildlife refuge. Including an adjacent cottage we have six rooms which accommodate up to ten guests. We host parties of any size- large private groups, small groups, pairs, solo visitors, non-anglers, spouses, and children.
Our courtyard pool and cocktail pool are surrounded by shady royal palms, overlooking the open sea. It is a relaxing, tranquil setting with a unique tropical privacy.
The Suite
For guests visiting with a partner, spouse, children, or groups of friends, our lodge experience facilitates the bonding and camaraderie that make a fishing trip invaluable. Non-anglers, spouses, and children are welcome!
Corporate Groups
We specialize in accommodating private groups of 8-10 guests. We accommodate a full spectrum of beginners to experts. Groups can be comprised of friends, business associates, customers, employees, family, etc. Over the last 24 years of doing business, we have refined the program and curated an experience focused on camaraderie, relationship-strengthening, and rewarding.
