Placencia Fishing Charters is a Belizean family-owned and operated business with over 40 years of combined experience in tourism and hospitality. The team consists of skilled local fishing guides dedicated to sharing their knowledge of Belize’s waters. They specialize in fishing excursions, island getaways, eco-tourism activities such as snorkeling and island hopping, and inland and cultural tours.

Led by Captain Edlin Leslie Jr., a fourth-generation fisherman, Placencia Fishing Charters brings extensive expertise in various fishing techniques, including deep-sea and inner reef fishing, fly fishing, and spin casting. Captain Edlin has passed his knowledge to his son, Deshawndre, and other local guides. A day with the team focuses on fishing, understanding the craft, and experiencing the local culture.

Fishing trips are tailored to suit different interests and skill levels. Fly fishing outings target catch-and-release species such as Permit, Tarpon, and Bonefish, offered as half-day or full-day trips. Lagoon and reef trips center on species like Snappers, Barracuda, and King Mackerel, employing trolling and bottom fishing techniques. Outer reef and deep-sea options aim for pelagic species such as Tuna and Marlin, with electric reel deep drops available for those looking for a unique challenge. Each trip includes cleaning and filleting a portion of the catch.

Snorkeling tours visit locations like Laughing Bird Caye and Silk Cayes, with options to combine fishing and snorkeling. Seasonal seafood hunting for lobster, conch, and crab is also available, highlighting Belize’s rich marine ecosystem.

The fleet features several boats equipped with safety and navigational gear. The 25-foot fiberglass angler boat, powered by a 115 HP Yamaha four-stroke engine, and the 23-foot Isabel Marine skiff are ideal for nearshore and lagoon trips. For advanced fishing, the 25-foot Sea Fox offshore boat includes a live well and outriggers. The 21-foot Tajoma center console boat, powered by a 200 HP engine, is versatile for a range of activities.

Placencia Fishing Charters offers fishing and travel experiences designed for anglers of all levels. Book your adventure today and explore the marine and cultural heritage that Placencia, Belize, has to offer.
