With pristine waters and year-round fishing opportunities, the Bahamas is the preferred destination for both new and seasoned bonefisherman. Visitors can enjoy temperate weather, consistently robust bonefish populations, and plenty of opportunities to spy and catch bonefish of impressive sizes. If you’re currently planning a bonefishing trip, you can look forward to highly skilled guides, an impressive selection of islands, and excellent value and convenience when you choose the Bahamas.
Largest Shallow Flats
Bahamian waters have the largest shallow flats that bonefisherman can experience. In some locations, these flats extend for miles. They give individual groups ample opportunities to fish privately even during the busy season. Moreover, these locations are rich with natural resources that include massive swaths of red mangrove, shrimp, crabs, and more. As such, local bonefish have plenty of places to hunt and feed, and plenty of sustenance for reaching massive sizes. It’s not surprising that the root word from which the name from “Bahamas” is derived means “shallow sea”.

Bonefishing in the Bahamas is also incredibly convenient and virtually guaranteed to provide good value. Whether you’re new to bonefishing or have gone out before, you can look forward to a convenient, all-inclusive package that requires you to bring little more than your own clothes. With such a wealth of hyper-local fishing destinations to choose from, there are reasonably-priced packages available year-round.
Island Options
The Bahamas are a nearly 760-mile archipelago that stretches from Haiti to almost Florida. There’s no shortage of places to fish, and even people who visit this destination annually for bonefishing are always able to experience something new.
Every location has something unique to offer, and there are affordable options in Bahama air tours and guided fishing excursions for each island.
Bonefish Guides
