Looking to spice up your next visit to Mexico? Nuevo Vallarta Fishing is here to do just that, with a variety of packages that can cater to any angler's tastes!

The crew invites you to join them on board their 29' Nava. She's a center console, with a stable and dry ride and plenty of space to fish all around the deck. You can bring 5 of your fishing buddies with you, she can hold 6 anglers plus the crew.

Don't be fooled by her length, she's a compact waterborne predator. You can strap in a fighting chair to reel in that tough fighter or take a break under the T-top. There's plenty of space in the livewell so you won't run out of enticing baitfish on your trip.

You'll go after a wide range of hard-fighting fish in the waters of Nuevo Vallarta. Shorter trips will put you inside the Bay of Banderas, one of the world's most prolific fishing spots. Get ready to hook up Amberjack and Jack Crevalle, Roosterfish, Snappers, Groupers, and other species.

Further offshore, you'll hunt for pelagic predators. Species like Sailfish, Blue and Striped Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Red Snapper, and others can all be targeted on 6-hour and 8-hour trips.

You can mix your fishing trip up with snorkeling. The crystal-clear waters are practically begging for a quick dip and the crew always carries snorkeling equipment on all trips.

We do Fishing trips and we add this boat to our fleet, but we been in business for 20 years,

Excellent crew
Full Day Trip on November 24, 20253 adults

We booked an 8 hour deep sea fishing trip with three family members. The crew worked hard to find us the best chances. 3 longfin tuna and 1 jack cravalle into the boat. 2 marlin strikes. It was an excellent day. Well worth the trip.

Half Day Trip on February 12, 20252 adults

The guys worked non stop. Changing things up as we wanted for fish we wanted to catch and when things weren't working. They put us on fish all day and caught bonito, jacks, and groupers. Was an absolute blast. They know what they were doing to help us catch big and lots of fish. Great fights. By the end of the day. Our arms were tired and beat up. But still had enough to lift cold beers at the end. We also saw tons of whales, dolphins, turtles and other wildlife. Highly recommended

We didn't catch anything
3/4 Day Trip on February 5, 20264 adults1 child

The boat was fine, the crew was friendly, but after 6 and a half hours we didn't catch ANYTHING. Unbelievable! We didn't go to Mahahuita, Yelapa, or Los Arcos to snorkel, it would have been better to go, at least more engaging for the kids. We spent the whole time waiting to catch something and nothing. At the end we went down for 20 min to a nice secluded beach, but we were very disappointed, since this was an activity we had been looking forward to for a long time.

Great trip
Snorkeling Mahahuitas-Yelapa on January 17, 20232 adults

We booked the Yelapa 6 hour fishing trip and it was a great experience. Miguel and his shipmate were very knowledgeable. We stopped at Yelapa and his shipmate walked us up to the waterfall and led us down to the restaurant which serves delicious food. We didn't catch any fish but got to see some whales on the return home which was just as nice. The boat was clean and a comfortable ride. Miguel was very fluent in English. I would definitely recommend Miguel to anyone looking for a wonderful and safe fishing experience in Vallarta.
