The
Lodge
Gibson
Point Lodge is located on an ancient
coral point near the town of Sandy Bay,
on the island's northwest shore. Well
appointed rooms accommodate one or two
anglers with a private bath in each
room. Laundry facilities are located on
site.
We use
Hewe's Tunnel boats equipped with Yamaha
motors to access the flats found around
the entire island. The lodge has extra
equipment on hand in case you find
yourself without an essential piece of
fishing gear. Our fly tying bench is
complete with everything you need to
create that special fly to take that
fish of a lifetime.
Just 100
yards offshore from the lodge, the
world's second Great Barrier Reef is
found. For the non-angler, or if you
just decide to take a day off from the
fishing, the snorkeling and scuba diving
is world class. In fact, Roatán is known
as one of the "Top 5" in the diving
world. Where the reef sits just off our
shore is one of the best sites on the
entire island. We have a cooperative
agreement with one of the local dive
resorts to arrange these trips.
Arriving
Getting to
Roatán is easy. Flights operate daily
from both Houston and Miami on American,
Continental, and TACA into San Pedro
Sula, located on the mainland of
Honduras. Then it’s a short flight over
to Roatán. TACA also provides direct
service to Roatán from Miami on a weekly
basis. Our staff will greet you at the
airport in Roatán and bring you to
Gibson Point.
While at the
lodge you’ll be treated to fine dining
at every meal with breakfast, lunch, and
dinner included in our packaged rates.
Our certified chef will amaze you with
cuisine from the islands as well as her
own take on time-honored favorites.
While your
dinner is being prepared, our pier and
patio is a perfect place to unwind.
Resident schools of bonefish and permit
are found on the flat located directly
in front of the lodge and if your arm is
still willing, you’ll be able to get in
those few last casts before the sun
slowly sets in the west.
