Tropic Star Lodge

You will fish aboard fully rigged 31′ Bertram boats with an experienced native captain at the helm. These Tropic Star captains have broken over 250 IGFA World records, more than any other lodge in the world. Most of the fishing here is done just 6-12 miles offshore. This great reef, discovered by Zane Grey back in the 1920’s, slopes from 120 feet to 350 feet and is home to aquatic life beyond the imagination. This reef, originally named after Grey and now called Pinas Reef, still is home to a population of fish not to be believed. Black, blue and striped marlin are found here in number unheard of in any other fishery in the world and sailfish are caught year round. Also, you can count on nonstop, rod-bending action on the indigenous roosterfish, mammoth grouper and toothy cuberra snapper any day of the season.

The lodge is a veritable paradise cut from the side of a mountain on the Pacific rim of the Darien Rainforest of Panama, only accessible by boat, or plane. You will stay in comfortable double rooms, just steps away from the central dining area where your delicious evening meals will be served. Due to the immense popularity of this lodge, it is never too early to start making your plans to reserve your space.
