Nestled just north of the small fishing village of Xcalak (pronounced ish-kalak), The Xflats at Tierra Maya is an exciting destination offering immediate access to the world-renowned flats of the Chetumal Bay area. The lodge is situated overlooking the ocean on a quiet and undeveloped stretch of beach, ideally situated to offer anglers incredible opportunities to focus on the “Big Three” flats species — tarpon, permit, and bonefish. Xflats is by far one of our very favorite operations in the Caribbean, with a staff and guide team that is second-to-none. This is quickly becoming one of the top Yucatan permit lodges!
