Captain Jose was friendly and knew the area. The fishing area is actually a national park and while fishing you come across underground springs and wildlife in the mangroves. Captain puts you on fish and teaches you about the wildlife. The water is similar to the Everglades in Florida being very clear and moving because of tides and freshwater mixing.
Hi Robert, Thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip with us. Hope to see you back one day! Regards, Martin
Jose was amazing and skilled and also very sociable and funny! My wife and I had a lovely 6hr trip even when the heat was a lot, and he didn’t everything in his power to get us on fish during tough conditions. We caught quite a few and I learned to cast much better and was inspired to keep working on my life long skill.
Hi Christian, Thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip with us. Hope to see you back next time you're in Cancun! Regards, Martin

Our seasoned guides will make sure you are fishing in the best spots in Nichupte Lagoon so you catch the fish of a lifetime.
