San Felipe, Yucatán — One of the World’s Greatest Baby Tarpon Fisheries
Are you ready for one of the most exciting fly-fishing experiences on the planet?
San Felipe, Yucatán is home to a legendary fishery where acrobatic baby tarpon explode out of mangrove channels, crush flies in inches of water, and test every bit of your skill and adrenaline.
This is not a crowded tourist spot — this is a bucket-list destination for anglers who want the real thing: untouched water, massive schools of fish, and a local guide who knows every inch of this ecosystem.
If you’ve been dreaming of a true baby tarpon adventure, this is your place.
🔥 Why Anglers Book San Felipe (And Why They Come Back)
1. The Densest Baby Tarpon Population on Earth
We’re not exaggerating. The Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve is one of the world’s most productive tarpon nurseries.
Expect hundreds of rolling fish, constant shots, and explosive, heart-pounding takes.
This is where anglers come to learn, improve, and dominate baby-tarpon fly fishing.
2. Protected, Fishable Waters — Even in Windy Conditions
Many tarpon destinations shut down when conditions get rough.
San Felipe doesn’t.
The mangrove creeks, flats, and back lagoons stay protected — meaning you fish more, and you catch more.
3. Elite Local Guide — 25 Years of Proven Success
Your guide is Captain Pedro Figueroa, one of Yucatán’s most respected tarpon captains.
Clients call him:
“A true tarpon master.”
“The best guide I’ve ever fished with.”
“A fish whisperer — he knows exactly where they’re going before they do.”
If you want the highest chance of hooking multiple tarpon each day, you want Pedro on the poling platform.
4. Multiple Hookups Per Day Are Common
San Felipe is famous for producing action-packed days.
It’s not uncommon for anglers to hook 10–20 tarpon when the conditions line up.
If you want consistent shots and non-stop adrenaline, this is it.
