South Ana Maria is the eighth Avalon destination. We plan to offer this new endeavour as a fishing alternative for those looking to broaden their angling horizons, while discovering a completely unpressured natural marine environment for salt water fish.
The area is completely untouched and is part of the marine park that is already protected by the Cuban Ministry of Fishing, and exclusively maintained and chartered by Avalon. Commercial fishing is strictly prohibited, which allows for infinite sport fishing potential. Species found in this area are: tarpon, bonefish, permit, snook, jack crevalle, snapper, large and aggressive barracuda as well as several other powerful species. Avalon’s goal is to offer another destination to unexplored, virgin waters, as we once did in other areas now well known and protected in Jardines de la Reina. In recent seasons we have visited these waters with guides and clients, with spectacular reviews. The results have been so positive that we are proud to spread the word on how unique and abundant this marine ecosystem is. The rich flora and fauna in this area also make it perfect for diving, as the waters are so clear and the species inhabiting the area, so abundant.
The fishing method we will use at this new location is the same as we are applying in Cayo Largo, with a rotation of the fishing areas, so that each skiff has as an assigned daily area to fish. This structure ensures that anglers are at ease, knowing that their sector has not been fished by others on that same day. This guarantees that the fish are not pressured, leaving them eager to take all manner of flies.
In this new location, we will be using highly experienced guides with expert knowledge of the fishing areas. Dolphins Skiffs with Yamaha 70HP motors will be used to fish the area, which ensures Avalon’s high standard of quality and security. These same standards are applied throughout Avalon equipment found at all our destinations. The quality of food and service offered will be identical to those in Avalon’s other programs in Jardines de la Reina. The menu will be abundant with fresh fish, seafood, seasonal fruit and vegetables. Also on the menu are red and white meats and vegetarian dishes, available on request. A great deal of priority will be placed on the quality of meals served on board and the attentive service will be second to none.
This program is completely independent from the other Avalon trips to Jardines de la Reina, in the sense that anglers will arrive at Jucaro Port, where they will board the yacht, for a short transfer to the first fishing area. The program can be booked for 4 to 8 anglers in exclusivity. Those staying aboard the yacht will be in 4 double rooms, all with air conditioning and private bathrooms. The guides, crew and wait staff have a separate sleeping area aboard and will be at guest’s beck and call throughout the week. Excellent food and service along with long days on the water in a scarcely explored marine eco system, is what this new and exciting trip is all about!

SUR DE ANA MARIA: VIAJES DE EXPLORACION!!
Avalon, Cuban Fishing Centers continua expandiendose, y buscando brindar nuevas opciones de pesca, adaptables a las posibilidades y los gustos de cada pescador, ampliando los horizontes de la pesca en agua salada, buscando nuevos puntos donde tentar a las especies que nos apasionan.
Es por esto que a partir del 01 de Enero de 2010, comenzaremos nuestra operacion en la zona denominada SUR DE ANA MARIA, un nuevo destino en el golfo de Ana Maria, cerca del famoso archipielago de los Jardines de la Reina, donde podra pescar las especies que acostumbran habitar este area, como los tarpons gigantes, el bonefish, permit, jack crevalle, snapper, barracudas y snook, entre otras. Ideal para la pesca con mosca, brindando a los huespedes un amplio espectro de posiblidades dependiendo de la tecnica y la temporada.
El barco en que hospedaremos a los pescadores sera el Caballones, apto para alojar grupos entre 4 y 8 pescadores, con tripulacion y guias exclusivas durante toda la semana de pesca. La ventaja de tener un barco y tripulacion exclusiva, estiva principalmente en que podran pescar mayor cantidad de horas cada dia, con extensas jornadas de hasta 12 horas de pesca si lo desean, pudiendo dormir cerca de los mejores puntos de pesca, con menor cantidad de tiempo de navegacion desde el yate hasta el primer punto de pesca. Otro valor agregado es la inigualable gastronomia, mariscos, pescado obtenido minutos antes, variedad de ensaladas y tipicos platos de la cocina cubana. El Caballones cuenta con 5 habitaciones, 4 de ellas con literas y la restante con cama matrimonial, todas con bano privado y aire acondicionado.
En cuanto al area de pesca, al ser una zona practicamente inhospita, se encuentra sin explorar, por lo que es ideal para pescadores que aman la naturaleza, la repentizacion, ya que podemos encontrar tarpons nadando tranquilamente en flats mientras buscamos bonefish, sin siquiera inmutarse con nuestra presencia, por lo que el cambio de vara y posterior lanzamiento debe ser instantaneo, igualmente puede suceder con algun jackcrevalle que podremos tentar al buscar barracudas con poppers en la superficie, lo fascinante de este tipo de pesca es no saber que saldra desde las profundidades cuando lanzamos nuestra mosca al agua. Por supuesto que la clasica ¨pesca vista¨ sera el comun denominador, ya que la zona cuenta con numerosos flats de arenas blancas, fondos coralinos, arrecifes, etc.....siempre con la habitual transparencia del mar que es signo distintivo de toda la costa sur de Cuba.
En cuanto al precio, esta primer temporada sera sensiblemente mas economico que en otros destinos del caribe con tarifas que varian entre, con tarifas que permiten a todos los pescadores interesados el disfrute de este paradisiaco destino.
