Thanks to some seriously deep waters located just minutes from shore, home to a wealth of Billfish and big game species, Playa del Carmen has earned a name for itself as an angler’s playground. Tritón Pesca Deportiva is here to show you just how fun these waters can be!

The crew of local and friendly licensed captains provides exciting, first-class fishing adventures. They run a tight ship, and it shows – there are a variety of trips on offer suited to guests of all skill levels, and they can be customized, too. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Now that’s dinner!

You’ll be fishing from a 25’ Imemsa center console, built to accommodate up to 4 guests. With children age 10 and up welcome aboard, why not make this a family adventure to remember?

The vessel is decked out with life jackets in a variety of sizes, as well as some top-quality fishing gear. There are outriggers to cover plenty of ground when trolling for the big boys, as well as a fighting chair to help you win the battle against your target catch!

Your captain will make sure you’re equipped with all the rods, reels, tackle, and bait you need for a fun and successful day out. Want to mix up your angling action with a spot of snorkeling? Just let your captain know, and he’ll provide the equipment for you. Explore these waters from a whole new angle!

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates work for tips, and it’s customary to offer them a 10–20% tip. You can’t go wrong when you bring sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed. Some species may be off-limits, so make sure you know what to expect.

There’s no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready to have a good time! Tritón Pesca Deportiva is waiting to show you just what these waters are.

Come aboard and get ready to discover the magic of fishing in Playa del Carmen for yourself!

Tritón Pesca Deportiva is owned by Pedro Canto. He's been fishing in this area for over 30 years now and has been in the fishing charter industry for over 12 years. He decided that it was time to introduce these waters to guests from all over the world. Pedro works alongside 2 experienced captains, Edesio Be Chuc and Erasmo Samano. On your trip, you'll be joined by one of the captains and a friendly, knowledgeable First Mate. Captains Edesio and Erasmo both have a lifetime of experience exploring the waters of the area, so it's safe to say they know a thing or two about fishing here! In addition to this wealth of experience and knowledge, they also are well-versed in tournaments, regularly participating in local ones that target Marlin, Mahi Mahi, and Wahoo. The best part of the job for this team is seeing the smiles on their guests' faces after they catch a fish!
