Big news for bass anglers and adventure travelers: Volaris has launched a new nonstop flight from Los Angeles (LAX) to Tepic International Airport (TPQ)—cutting hours off travel time to one of Mexico’s most scenic and underrated regions.
For guests headed to Coras Lodge on Lake Aguamilpa, this is a game-changer.
Tepic, the capital of Nayarit, is just 75 minutes from the lodge, making it the closest and most convenient point of entry. The new route means West Coast travelers can now skip the connection in Mexico City and land closer to the action—arriving rested, refreshed, and ready to fish.
According to Travel Weekly, the addition of this flight is part of a broader push to spotlight the inland beauty of Nayarit—not just its beaches. From coffee country and cultural villages to world-class bass fishing at Aguamilpa, there’s more to explore when you go beyond the coast.
Coras Lodge is proud to be part of that discovery. Built for anglers, birders, and nature lovers alike, our lakeside retreat offers fully guided bass fishing trips, gourmet meals, and seamless ground transfers from Tepic.
Round Out Your Trip with a Stop in San Blas
Reduced travel time means that you can round out your bass fishing trip with a other tourist destination in Naryarit. If you’re flying through Tepic, consider adding San Blas to your itinerary. Just two hours west of the lodge, this historic coastal town is home to La Tovara National Park, world-renowned birding, and mellow Pacific beaches. It’s a great way to wind down after long days on the lake—or ease into your trip with a little sand and seafood before heading inland.
Booking Tip:
The nonstop flight from LAX to TPQ runs three times a week on Volaris. Early booking is recommended—especially during peak fishing months from February to June.
