Jaco Kayak Fishing Charters
Jaco Kayak Fishing Charters
The amazing fishing scene in Jaco, Costa Rica just got richer for a new kayak adventure! Join Captain Alejandro and his brother, both of whom share a passion for fishing and know all the best fishing spots in the area. They also offer fishing trips from a boat, so if you're interested, check out their second listing.
The captain will meet you next to the hotel Club del Mar. From there you'll drive to your launching spot in less than 20 minutes. The exact spot always changes because it depends on the tides and the weather. You'll use 13' Hobie kayaks, which means you'll use pedals, not paddles. You'll also get life vests and cooler bags.
You'll visit the reefs and inshore waters of the area, where you'll target Roosterfish, Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Snapper, Mackerel, and many more. Depending on what you want to catch, the captain will apply different fishing techniques and show you how to do them yourself. You can keep the catch after the trip, so let that be an extra motivation for reeling them in!
The captain will provide your fishing equipment, snacks, and drinks. You'll catch live bait on your way to the main targets. Feel free to bring your food and don't forget a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen. All guests need to be at least 14 years old.
Get your legs ready for pedaling and your arms for reeling! Join Jaco Kayak Fishing Charters today!

thank you Kareem! it was great hanging out with you brother pura vida!
Great morning fishing. We caught 2 huge rooster fish. Bernardo is a knowledgable guy and easy going. He does everything to get you decent fish and is a nice person also. Even though the current was quite strong, we kept changing tactics to catch fish. Bernardno even gave me a huuuge fillet of the catch (spanish mackrel). Could not recommend these guys more, will book with them again when I am in CR!
Thanks Ervin! We had a great time fishing with you! Even though the conditions werent ideal, we made the best of it and ended having a good fishing day! Until next time! Pura vida!
Man what a day! I'm not gonna lie it was not a day of catching, but it was not for lack of trying. These brothers worked so hard to get me on fish but they just weren't biting. We know that's how it goes sometimes. But the weather was great, the Hobie's are always awesome, and the view was just awesome. I would not hesitate to go out with them again. I wish I had more time to try again. I can't wait to come back to Costa Rica to finally get that rooster fish off my bucket list and I don't doubt these guys will help me do it. If anybody is considering doing kayak fishing you should. I do recommend you're in moderately good shape to peddle for hours but besides that it really gives a great experience even when fishing was slow like today. Hit these guys up and you won't regret it!
Thanks again for booking with us Lane! It was great meeting you! Yes unfortunately the fish did not want to play with us, but I'm glad you still had a good time in the water! Pura vida and safe travels my friend
I had an amazing time with Bernardo! He was great to talk to, and I had everything I needed on board. The fish weren't really biting that day, but we tried everything and, with a lot of effort, managed to catch some. It was an incredible experience!
Alejandro was an incredible captain, highly knowledgeable about the area. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of catching fish with them, and I can't wait to book another trip with them. Thank you, Alejandro!
Had a great time in the water with you my friend! We'll be in touch! Pura vida until next time tight lines
