Fish The Chadeleur Islands Without The Long Boat Rides

Stay at the fishing grounds instead of driving back and forth for hours!

At The Islander Lodge, we believe great fishing deserves an even better basecamp. That’s why we’ve created a one-of-a-kind, all-inclusive floating fishing lodge just off the legendary Chandeleur Islands. Our stable, remodeled jack-up platform offers unbeatable access to world-class trout and redfish waters—without sacrificing comfort.

From hearty meals and ice-cold drinks to clean bunkrooms and guided adventures, we provide everything you need for a hassle-free, unforgettable fishing trip.

Whether you’re wading in the surf, casting from a skiff, or enjoying the breeze on deck with friends, we’re here to make sure your island experience is always safe, always comfortable, and always worth it.

No Shirt, No Shoes, No Problem!

30 miles offshore! Leave your cares on land. Stay, Fish, Adventure!

The Chandeleur Islands offer some of the best redfish and speckled trout fishing in the world—and The Islander Lodge puts you right in the heart of it. Located 30 miles offshore, our stationary jack-up lodge saves you the long daily commute and gives you more time on the water. Whether you’re wading the surf, casting from one of our skiffs, or fishing under the lights at night from our 90-foot dock, the action never stops.

But it’s not just about fishing. Explore the beaches, hunt for shells, try your hand at crabbing, or just kick back with a cold drink and take in the sunset. After a full day, come back to hot meals, cool air conditioning, and a comfortable bed—all just steps from the Gulf.

With The Islander as your basecamp, you get the freedom to fish longer, relax harder, and experience the Chandeleurs the way they were meant to be enjoyed—off the grid, on your time, but still with the luxuries of home.
