Andros South Lodge

Lodging Details
Andros South is a friendly, laid-back bonefishing lodge that concentrates on providing a focused fishing experience that is second to none. The lodge is situated on a beautiful white sand beach, which takes full advantage of consistent trade winds. After fishing, take a relaxing swim each evening or hone your casting skills on the beach. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and air-conditioned, and each features a private bathroom and a luxurious shower. Probably the most enticing fact about the accommodations at Andros South is that each angler will have a private, single occupancy room unless otherwise requested – something that is both rare and difficult to find at most bonefish lodges. If you’re looking for a very comfortable place to spend a vacation fishing, relaxing, and enjoying a quiet week in the Bahamas, you will find all of the above at Andros South.

Food and Beverages
The dining room at Andros South is the perfect place to enjoy cocktails, great meals, and conversation with friends – both new and old. During your stay, expect plenty of fresh, local seafood. From snapper and grouper to lobster and conch, this is seafood at its finest. You will enjoy a variety of dishes, with an emphasis on traditional Bahamian cooking. Entrees are always complemented with hearty side dishes and topped off with a variety of great desserts. You definitely won’t go hungry. The lodge is happy to take special requests for food; whether dietary restrictions or just a personal preference, the staff will work hard to accommodate you. Located right on the beach is the lodge’s famous tiki bar, affectionately called “The Slack Tide.” This is a favorite spot to enjoy the beach, breeze, drinks, and appetizers at the end of each fishing day.

Typical Length of Stay
A trip of any length of stay can be arranged to start on any day. Please call Yellow Dog for details.

Non-Angling Activities and Options
Although Andros South is primarily a fishing destination, there is a beautiful beach for lounging, reading, and relaxing. Be advised, however, that this is a destination that is perhaps best suited for anglers.

Internet / Communications
The lodge does offer Wi-Fi for guests. Some U.S. cell phones may work on South Andros depending on your service plan. 

How To Get There
There are several options for flying to Congo Town. Please contact Yellow Dog for ticketing and scheduling assistance. Our recommended choice for reaching this part of Andros Island is from Nassau International Airport (NAS) via Western Air. Western offers two flights each day to Congo Town from Nassau (NAS). Groups of more than six people may also consider a private charter from Ft. Lauderdale. Yellow Dog works with several charter companies in Ft. Lauderdale and would be happy to work with you on arranging a flight.

Arrival and Departure Details
The flights from Nassau (NAS) to Congo Town take 20 minutes. Reservations can be made directly with Western Air, or Yellow Dog can set that up for you. Once you arrive in Congo Town, a representative from Andros South Lodge will meet you at the airport for the short drive to the lodge. Andros South Lodge is a 20-minute drive from the airport in Congo Town on South Andros.

Documents Required
All U.S. citizens are required to have a valid passport that does not expire within six (6) months of trip dates. Please be sure that your passport has at least two blank, unstamped pages remaining in the back, and that it is not torn, delaminated or damaged in any way.

General Information
South Andros is perfect for the wade-focused angler: just about everywhere you look has a hard bottom. Big numbers of bonefish live here, along with some larger fish available as well. Anglers can expect plenty of shots at bonefish in the 2-4 pound range, with bonefish in the double digits around. With so many fish around, it’s quite possible the fish you are casting to has never seen a fly! Don’t be fooled–each and every fish presents a challenge of its own.

Boats and Equipment
Anglers fish from a mix of Dolphin, Mitzi, and Rahming skiffs complete with poling platforms, 55 to 60 HP Yamaha and Mercury outboards, and spacious casting decks. The boats are roomy and comfortable and shallow draft. . . suited to fish the Andros flats perfectly! We recommend that anglers bring their gear and equipment, including rods, reels, wading boots, flies, and all terminal tackle. The lodge does have loaner gear, including rods, reels, and boots. They can supply some flies and terminal tackle.
