Grand Bahama, Bahamas

H2O Bonefishing

SaltwaterPort Lucaya, Freeport — Grand Bahama flats, mostly on the north side

H2O trailers its Maverick skiffs around Grand Bahama to whichever flats suit the day's wind, most often the broad mud and mangrove flats on the north side of the island. Guests stay at the Pelican Bay Hotel in Port Lucaya, on packages that bundle the room with a guided boat, breakfast and lunch. From April to September an offshore boat also takes fly anglers out for tuna and mahi-mahi.
