Incredible fiahing trip!
Half Day Trip (PM) on March 23, 20264 adults1 child

what an amazong day with my family of 5. We booked the 4 hour PM fishing trip and reeled on our first fish (tuna) almost immediately. The views from the water were phenominal. we caught two more tuna and a spanish mackerel. Our captian spotted dolphins and took the yime yo reel in the rods so he could create wakes fo the dolphins to swim in. They swam right to the boat and played in the wakes. it was such a once in a lifetime opportunity and I'm so thankful they took the time to do this for us! we swam at yhe end of our trip as well. it was overall a perfect day.

The best experience!
Full Day Trip on March 2, 20262 adults

We had an amazing experience fishing in Costa Rica. The crew was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and worked hard to make sure we had a great day on the water. The scenery was beautiful and the fishing was exciting — definitely one of the highlights of our entire trip. Everything was well organized and the crew made the experience fun and easy, whether you're experienced or new to fishing. Plus they made the best lunch and fresh ceviche out of some fish we caught! Highly recommend this charter to anyone visiting Costa Rica!

Awesome Captain and crew
Half Day Trip (PM) on March 10, 20262 adults4 children

The day was windy because we picked the afternoon half day fishing charter. Should have gone with morning for smoother water, but the kids thought the swells were fun. We caught some tuna that were beautiful fish. Great Captain and crew, really good fresh fruit, and plenty of beverages to wet the old whistle.

Captain Roberto has been fishing, quite literally, since he was old enough to hold a rod. Since the age of 3, he's been casting his line into the Pacific, and became a captain in 2000. He's a passionate Costa Rican and is proud that he can speak English in order to teach tourists about the beauty of his country. He hopes to leave a lasting impression on each customer.
