If you want to add some true local flair to your Costa Rica experience, then come aboard The Brother Alex Tour charters in Jaco, and get ready to see how these fishermen reel 'em in! Captains Ere Calderón Perez, Alexis Lopez, and his brother, Alexander grew up here on the ocean, so it's fair to say they know these waters like the backs of their own hands. Get ready to combine some incredible angling action with stunning scenery and plenty of relaxation!

Your comfort is a top priority to both captains, so get ready for a journey on board their truly impressive vessel. She's a 30' Costa Rica Mako center console, and can comfortably accommodate up to 5 guests. On board, you'll find a private toilet, and a spacious deck that offers plenty of room for chilling out. She's equipped with all of the latest navigational and safety gear, including life vests for little ones – so bring the whole family along!

You'll be spoiled for choice when it comes to the species on offer – no matter how far offshore you travel, you'll have the chance to hook a wide variety of fish, including Red Snapper, different Grouper, Amberjack, Barracuda, and world-famous big game superstars such as Mahi Mahi and Blue Marlin. All this fishing is hungry work, so your trip also includes snacks and drinks. You can sip a beer as you troll or jig for the catch of a lifetime! Want to snorkel, too? Just let your captain know!

Your captains will ensure you're decked out with top-quality Shimano rods and reels, as well as tackle, bait, and a fishing license. Come aboard The Brother Alex Tour and see how the locals do it!

Our Original Charter Canceled… This One Blew It Away
Troling on June 8, 20262 adults

After our original trip was canceled by another charter, we booked with these guys, and I'm glad we did. They really know the waters and made us feel safe from the moment we left the dock. The waves were pretty intimidating due to the windy conditions and storms from the day before, but the captain handled everything with ease and confidence. Even in less-than-ideal conditions, they put us on the fish fast. Within the first 60–90 minutes of fishing, it was nonstop action—fish after fish, double hookups after double hookups. The crew worked hard, stayed positive, and made sure everyone was having a great time. Most importantly, they helped make my birthday trip an unforgettable experience. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, professional crew that can put you on fish and keep you safe, I highly recommend booking with them. We'll definitely be back!

Reported catch:
Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)

Great fishing trip
Bottom fish or trolling pm on February 18, 20264 adults2 children

We had an excellent time fishing. There was my husband and myself, our son and his wife, and their two children 8 & 4. Our 8 year-old grandson has talked about fishing for at least two years so our main goal was for him to catch a fish. He first caught a very small blackfin tuna followed by a medium tuna (still small) and then he caught a mackerel, big enough to take to the restaurant across the street and cook up for him. It would have been nice to catch more fish, but - Mission accomplished. Our grandson caught some fish. Deago was really wonderful. Our 4 year-old granddaughter was sick and he doused towels with cold water to put on her. I would recommend this company.

Absolute Perfect Day!
Fullday offshore trips on June 9, 20266 adults

What a perfect day on the water. Captain Carlos put us right on the fish and deck mate Diego was a machine. We caught Dorado and Tuna all day. We enjoyed some fresh sushi on the boat and just when we thought the day was done we hooked into a nice Sailfish. It put up a great fight and ultimately won but what a day!

Half day inshore tríps am on January 5, 20265 adults

Overall good experience, a group of 5 of us went out and booked a half day inshore trip as some of the group members did not like the idea of being that far offshore, when we arrived we were told we were going to be going offshore, we just figured that it was due to the slow season for inshore fishing and went with it. Besides that after roughly a hour boat ride out we started trolling! The crew was amazing, we saw some dolphins and got onto 1 large sailfish! The crew provided a cooler full of soft drinks, water and beer as well as a fresh pineapple! I understand time of year, and it's called fishing not catching, would have been nice to get onto more fish but we understand that's how it works, I would recommend this trip.
