What to fish?

Cozumel Island's sport fishing is the envy of the whole world. Deep sea fishing is practiced being one of the best areas for marlin, sailfish, dorado, sierra, wahoo, tuna and barracuda. Fly fishing is mainly practiced in lagoons located in the north of the island. In these lagoons it is possible to fish for bonefish, permit, snook, snapper and barracuda.
Cozumel has been recognized worldwide as a great recreational spot for deep sea sport fishing and fly fishing as it is attractive for anglers to fish year round and catch large fish especially in spring and summer.
