Andros Island is divided almost
in the middle by the North, Middle and South Bights (a bight is
a waterway cutting through the island).
Through these bights one can
get from east side of Andros to the west side. The bights
are filled with flats, channels and lagoons that bonefish call their
dinner table. Right in the middle of this is Mangrove Cay and on
the north side of this fairly large cay sits Mangrove Cay Club (Google
Earth at 24.17.41 N and 77.41.48 W). From this wisely chosen site
their guides have access to the North, Middle and South Bights and
the large bonefish and tarpon of the West Side. This ability to
travel in all directions without ever having to trailer a boat or
run in the open ocean enables the guides to plan their day around
the changing tides or to fish the lee shores.
Beautiful, duplex cottages
lodge their anglers in absolute waterfront luxury. Spacious
suites feature two queen size beds, an adjoining sitting room that
allows an early riser to prepare for the day without disturbing
a roommate and plenty of storage space. The meals are expertly prepared
and get rave reviews. The guides work for the lodge from the fleet
of lodge owned 16’ Dolphin Skiffs with 90 HP motors and move
from flat to flat with as much comfort and safety as possible.
