family summer trip w/fly fishing
 
PLEASE HELP.....been searching for weeks for our family of 5 next summer vacation. 2 adults and 3 kids aged 9, 9, 11. husband is HUGE fly fisherman and kids will be kids and want nice sand, clear water and a pool. we almost booked in cayman islands but have heard fishing not great. been looking at bahamas but seems either VERY nice accommodations or not nice at all! and, needs to be easy to get too....a direct flight from charlotte would be great! can't spend hours commuting with 3 kids. would love any help anyone could provide. TIA.

Check out Cape Santa Maria on Long Island in the Bahamas. They offer fly fishing and are also family friendly.

Fly Fishing big in Exumas too
and Abacos

there is some in Turks and Caicos, you can stay in Provo that has everything you're looking for, but to fly fish you need to day trip to North Caicos and can get costly for that

Be prepared, fly fishing is expensive in Bahamas too, but probably the best destination for what you're looking for
