Tropic Star  Path: Home > Fly Fishing - Destinations > Panama Fishing The "Benchmark" of All Bluewater Fishing Lodges Tropic Star is a veritable paradise cut out of the side of a mountain at the edge of the Darien Jungle on the Pacific coast of Panama. The Lodge is situated 150 miles south of Panama City, or 35 miles from the Colombian border. It can only be reached by boat or plane, since there are no roads within a hundred miles. A charter plane lands on an airstrip in Pinas Bay. You then take a ten minute boat ride to Tropic Star Lodge. There have been more I.G.F.A. world records broken in Pinas Bay than anywhere else in the world - over 170 to date! Tropic Star Lodge holds over forty world records at the present time! The prime black marlin season runs from mid-December through April. Then the Pacific sailfish move in during April through July. The striped marlin season is considered mid-March through May. In the waters around the Lodge, you can catch dolphin, rainbow runner, snapper, tuna, grouper, amberjack, roosterfish, and mackerel. The spacious cabins and rooms are fully carpeted and air-conditioned, with a beautiful view of Pinas Bay. Each room has twin-beds and private bath/dressing room areas. A king-size bed can be requested. The cabins have surrounding porches with chairs. Each afternoon when the boats return to the Lodge, "fish stories" are swapped while guests relax at the fresh water pool, or drink pina coladas and eat fish fingers or sushimi on the veranda overlooking the bay, or in the air-conditioned bar. In addition, a jungle trail has been cut across to La Playa Blanca, where you may enjoy swimming, sunning, and shelling on the beautiful white sand beach. Multi-course dinners, complete with wine, are served in the scenic bay-view dining room each evening. The chef prepares various specialties, such as Baked Alaska, Cherries Jubilee, black bean soup; fresh baked pies and bread, ceviche, and many more varied and delectable dishes. A fresh "catch of the day" is offered, as well as a regular main course selection. Tropic Star guests are catered to by 80 employees, whose "personal touch" makes your stay a memorable one! Since the Lodge can only accommodate a total of 36 guests at a time, early reservations are a must. To check availability or for more information call us at 1-800-638-7405.
