The Palometa Club

SaltwaterPunta Allen — Ascension Bay, Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve

The Palometa Club has fished for permit out of Punta Allen since 2005, from six rooms on the beach of a lobster-fishing village on Ascension Bay. Two guides work each 23-foot panga for two anglers, and a good share of the permit and bonefish fishing is done on foot. Weeks run Friday to Friday, with the van and boat transfer from Cancún included.
