Cuba Big Game Fishing and Quail shooting

The beautiful country of Cuba is a great place to experience the very best in Big Game Fishing.

Why Cuba ?

We rank Cuba as one of the top ten Marlin centres in the World. Other Bill Fish are present both for light tackle fishing and heavier game fishing. Great blue water fishing opportunities await you, including inshore reef fishing and Saltwater Fly fishing. Cuba was one of Ernest Hemmingway's favourite fishing locations so why not follow in his footsteps and enjoy what the island has to offer.

With top charter boats, tackle and guides you will have the time of your life targeting Blue and White Marlin, Dorado, Tuna, Bass and many more fantastic fish that are abundant in the waters of Cuba . Guides are always on hand to give friendly advice and fishing assistance. Samuel Yara " Cuba 's fishing champion" is your guide. We are able to offer " World Class" bass fishing that you may include in your holiday itinerary.

Lure and Fly fisherman will have a superb time targeting species from Barracuda to Sailfish in crystal clear waters. Our clients can testify to having the thrill of a lifetime watching several "Cuda's" follow their lures. Probably underrated as a game fish, the Barracuda once hooked will dispel any notion you may have had about its power and speed during the fight, just watch them tail walk.

After your day's fishing its time to relax in our hand picked Hotel accommodation and sample the wonderful Cuban food, drinks and first-rate friendly people. The fishing lodge is situated at the end of a 44km causeway and is a spectacular sight to see.

Whilst in Havana why not visit the Ernest Hemmingway Museum or have dinner at one of his favourite restaurants, then sample the nightlife at a nearby nightclub or just simply relax with your Marguerita and take in the sights and sounds of Havana . We also arrange visits to the world famous Ptargas cigar factory where hand rolled cigars are still manufactured in the traditional way, these are one of the Presidents much liked cigars and he is known to visit on occasion. Guided excursions into Havana in an air-conditioned vehicle could be part of your itinerary, our local guide will give you the full tour, and his local knowledge will be invaluable.

Cuba Shooting Holiday

To experience great quail shooting then Cuba is for you. Our private estate offers superb quail shooting over pointers or on horseback. The terrain is ideally suited to this elusive and fast flying game bird. The pace can be fast and furious as covey after covey of Quail is driven towards you. Professional shoots with guides are all part of our packages. We will arrange for the hire of guns, licences, guides and ammunition, so nothing is left to chance. You will be staying at Santa Clara in a superb "African style" shooting lodge to give you that real "safari" feel during your stay. Interested?
