Abaco Lodge is back and better than ever!
It’s been three years since Hurricane Dorian devastated the lodge and the surrounding area, leaving nothing but rubble in its wake. But after a long and challenging journey, we are thrilled to announce that our dedication and hard work have paid off and that the new and improved Abaco Lodge has been fully rebuilt and is open for anglers, with every single fixture, boat, and piece of furniture.
Abaco Lodge is the only fly-fishing operation with direct access to the vast Marls of Abaco, one of bonefishing’s most storied destinations— an expansive, unpressured flats system with unrivaled numbers of bonefish. Twenty fish days are not uncommon, with 200-square-miles of prime habitat awaiting anglers. Abaco’s Marls-side headquarters also means no trailering, no fuel stops, and more time fishing. Push back from the breakfast table and walk to the dock,
where the island’s most knowledgeable guides and our fleet of Maverick flats skiffs await to greet you. Back on dry land, fine dining, and attentive service ensure ultimate comfort after a full day’s fishing.
The bright, charming lodge welcomes guests with spectacular waterfront views. Enjoy a cold Kalik by the pool, or gather around the fire pit where, under a setting sun the day’s fishing stories enter into island lore.
The lodge consists of 7 double rooms with a capacity of 8 anglers. All of the rooms offer air conditioning and private bathroom. Wireless Internet will keep you connected back home. Phone service is available and there is great cell coverage throughout the island. There is also a large flat screen TV for catching all the games.
The lodge’s main bar is stocked with spirits, cold beer, soft drinks, plenty of ice, and mixers for cocktails. We also have an on-site fly shop where you can purchase everything from flies, leaders and tippet, and lodge logo-wear. Fly-tying equipment is also available.
Located approximately 180 miles off the coast of Florida, the Abacos cup the eastern edge of Grand Bahama Island at the northernmost tip of the Bahamas
archipelago.
Abaco Lodge is the sole bonefishing resort in the Marls, on the island’s western edge. The Marls is enveloped by a recently designated National Park. Inside its perimeters, with an average depth of about four feet and little tidal influence, lives one of the toprated bonefisheries in the Bahamas.
Your guides at Abaco Lodge know every inch of it. From blue holes that attract juvenile tarpon (and notso-juvenile barracuda) to productive bonefish flats
and hundreds of cays extending from Cross Harbour in the south to stretches well north of the lodge, you’ll explore new and unpressured water daily.
As the only fly-fishing operation with direct access to the vast Marls of Abaco, one of the most sought-after bonefishing destinations in the world, Abaco Lodge offers unparalleled fishing opportunities. This expansive, unpressured flats system boasts unrivaled numbers of bonefish, making it a haven for anglers seeking a thrilling and challenging fishing experience. Join us for an unforgettable fishing adventure and experience the beauty and excitement of the Marls of Abaco with Abaco Lodge, now officially open for business!
