Rupununi, Guyana

Rewa Eco-Lodge

FreshwaterRewa village — confluence of the Rewa and Rupununi rivers

Owned by the local community, this lodge sits where the Rewa River meets the Rupununi in southern Guyana and was set up in 2005 with Conservation International. Arapaima are fished on the fly only, from aluminium boats hauled into a different oxbow pond each day, and every one is measured and tagged before release. Peacock bass, payara and arowana fill out the week, and the lodge also runs spinning trips for smaller fish.

Season

October to March

Hosted fly weeks fall in the two dry seasons: October and November early on, and February and March at low water, the better time for a mix of species. The lodge usually closes from mid-May to mid-August for the rains.
