Operating out of Punta de Mita, Mexico, Shark’s Sport Fishing specializes in professionally guided fishing tours. The crew has a passion for fishing, and they can’t wait to share it with you!

The boat is a 27’ Nava skiff that can accommodate up to 5 anglers fishing without tangling lines and bumping elbows. It comes with reliable twin 150 HP Mercury engines, a restroom, a wireless trolling motor, a live bait tank to keep your bait spry and appetizing, a cooler, and top-notch marine electronics and safety gear. The boat can be wheelchair accessible, depending on the sea conditions.

You’ll be exploring the most productive nearshore and offshore spots, as well as reef and wreck waters. Depending on the bite, you could be reeling in Sailfish, Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Jack Crevalle, Roosterfish, Pompano, Snapper, and more. You’ll get to try a variety of techniques, including bottom fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, popping, and drifting.

All the tackle, rods, reels, live bait, and lures will be provided by the charter. Fishing licenses, water, and sodas are also included. The charter also provides catch cleaning and filleting.
