Tamarindo 27' Mako - Center Console

Does spending the day under the gorgeous heat of the Costa Rican sun while you’re looking for that tell-tale sail sticking out of the water sound attractive? With this crew that day gets even better, as their first priority is your fun!

Join them aboard their 27’ Mako vessel. She has a center console design allowing up to 4 anglers to fish from her in comfort, without tripping over each other when chasing the bite. She’s built for these waters and offers a smooth ride. She’s powered by twin 175 HP Suzuki outboard engines.

The gorgeous aquamarine waters of Flamingo have a fish waiting for you, no matter your skill level! You can go for nearshore big boys like the Amberjack, or maybe some bottom fishing for Broomtail Grouper or Red Snapper is more your style. Fans of trolling for speedy predators will be glad to know you can target Wahoo, Spanish Mackerel, and Mahi Mahi.

You can find parking at the listed location, so don’t worry about getting to and from your fishing adventure.

Kick back and take a break from fishing, the charter provides snorkeling equipment so you can dive straight into the crystal waters – just let the captain know beforehand so he can prepare it. The captain will supply you with all the necessary gear for fishing, as well as snacks and drinks on all trips. The full day trip also includes a lunch, to keep your energy up between epic fights! The crew will clean and fillet your catch free of charge, but gratuity is always greatly appreciated.

If you’re ready to let all of that stress go while fishing for gorgeous fish in some of the most beautiful waters this side of the country has to offer, you’re ready to book a trip with this crew.

Jon and his wife moved to Tamarindo from the city in 2006. Tamarindo is a surfing town and back then the captain realized that surfing is not his thing. Instead, he instantly fell in love with fishing. Capt. Jon has fished the entire Pacific coast of Costa Rica since then, from Golfito (near Panama) to the Bat Islands (near Nicaragua). He has developed many friendships through this wonderful sport and has met great captains on each fishing location on the amazing Pacific coast. Now, the captain runs a successful fishing operation based in Tamarindo representing some of the best captains and crews on the best fishing locations of Costa Rica.
