Welcome Maku-Maku Lake in Peru!

Maku-Maku Lake embodies everything you can dream of in a tropical paradise fishing adventure! Its just you, the primeval jungle and scores of rare Amazon fish! Do not be deceived by the seemingly peaceful water surface: it hides the sharp-toothed Payara, the gigantic Arapaima and the vulturous Piranha.
When exploring the lake, visit the Oval Island. At the first glance there is nothing remarkable about it apart from a landing pier and a couple of tourist lodges. But you are here for the catch, and you wont be disappointed. The lakes muddy bottom near the island is full of deep pits, which make perfect hiding spots for Flatwhiskered Catfish, the enormous Gilded Catfish and other members of the Amazon catfish kind.
Otorongo Village in the south-western part of the lake is where an Amazon indigenous tribe lives. The Maku-Maku people have surely chosen their residence wisely, since the local waterways are teeming with fish! The native residents have built a landing pier for their longboats. Take your boat from there to the north of the village to find a long gentle-flowing canal, a habitat of choice for the yellow-eyed Brycon and the elusive Payara.
Take a minute to relax at the Tourist Landing Pier, where you can practice your distance casts. Cosy tourist lodges, a new pier with modern boats and the unmatched tropical fishing experience everything is ready for you to enjoy!
