With miles of open and accessible coastline, the East Cape of Baja is arguably the world’s top destination place to catch roosterfish from the shore. This special lodge destination is set amongst the spectacular beaches and mountains of Bahia de los Suenos. Anglers and non-angling companions can enjoy first-class accommodations, guides skilled in guiding both fly and conventional anglers, plenty of non-angling activities, and pristine, protected beaches.

The Bay of Dreams features an idyllic, white sand beach with clear turquoise water and world-class fishing at your doorstep. Guests stay in custom villas that directly overlook the Bay of Dreams. Rooms are all master suites, and each feature plenty of space and private baths. Villas include a Jacuzzi, pool, and access to a private white sand beach with an adjacent reef for snorkeling or fishing. All meals are included in the package, and the resort features a full restaurant and numerous bars.

Baja Mexico’s East Cape is one of the most productive blue water fly fishing locations in the world. Gentle seas, fair weather, and a precipitous nearby drop-off to the ocean floor make this the perfect setting for both fly and conventional fishing. Add the incredible number of migrating pelagic and resident species and you have a recipe for some incredible angling action. The typical fishing day begins and ends in front of the property. A normal fishing day starts with breakfast served at 6:00 AM in the restaurant or brought on board and enjoyed on the boat. The guides arrive on the beach at 6:30 AM and guests board pangas right in front of the villas. There is incredible inshore fishing for roosterfish, jacks, ladyfish, giant needlefish, pompano, and a variety of other species that cruise the beach in search of prey. When fishing from the beach, it is almost always a sight fishing game. Anglers walk the beach with the guide in search of cruising fish. When fish are spotted, anglers often run to get into casting position. It is a unique blend of sight-fishing, casting, walking, and chaos. When fishing from the panga (the typical 23-foot Mexican fishing boat), live bait is often used to bring fish within casting range, or the guides use a teaser on a spinning rod. The action is fast and furious with either a fly rod or a conventional spinning rod.

Situated at one end of the bay, guests have excellent swimming and snorkeling opportunities directly in front of the resort property. Kayaks and stand-up boards are provided for guest use. The property has numerous pools at guests’ disposal, including a waterfall/plunge pool for the adventurous. The Sea of Cortez is one of the most abundant marine environments in the world, and day trips to explore the local sea life can easily be arranged. Whales, dolphins, turtles, and sea lions are frequent visitors. Guests can also arrange to take an excursion to tour, shop or play golf in nearby La Paz, approximately one hour from the resort. Other activities include yoga, guided snorkeling adventures, full spa services, Mexican cooking classes, golfing, hiking and more.
