The Story

Copal Tree Lodge, nestled within a secluded 12,000-acre jungle preserve outside Punta Gorda, Belize, offers world-class permit fishing in the heart of “Permit Alley,” one of the planet’s most fertile flats. Anglers can expect numerous shots daily and encounters with trophy-size fish, guided by seasoned experts with unmatched local knowledge.

Designed for Couples

This experience is designed with couples in mind. While anglers pursue elusive permit and other species that flourish in these waters, non-anglers can enjoy a thoughtfully planned itinerary featuring culinary classes, activities, and cultural tours.

Luxury Accommodations

Elegantly appointed jungle suites with screened-in balconies overlooking the canopy, California king beds, walk-in showers, and a cozy indoor sitting area. Every detail reflects a refined yet eco-chic aesthetic, complemented by farm-to-table dining and luxury amenities for an unforgettable stay.

For the Angler

Copal Tree Lodge is a dream destination in the heart of Belize’s legendary “Permit Alley.” Within minutes of the dock, you’ll access hundreds of pristine flats and cayes where double-digit permit shots are the norm and trophy fish over 20 lbs. are a real possibility. With year-round opportunities and peak permit action from March through September, this fishery offers unmatched fishing for serious saltwater anglers.


For the Non-Angler

Copal Tree Lodge offers a full slate of immersive jungle experiences for non-anglers, from bean-to-bar chocolate classes and cultural tours of Maya sites to mixology sessions featuring Copalli Rum. Guests can visit waterfalls or caves, kayak or canoe the Rio Grande, or explore moderate hiking trails through cacao plantations and sugar cane fields where wildlife and medicinal plants are abundant. Copal Tree Lodge offers plenty of ways to enjoy southern Belize beyond the water.
