Experience the excitement only offshore big game fishing can bring! Pez Loco Sportfishing is your host on this journey and a true example of a luxurious fishing style. With the guidance of a local crew, you’ll reach the best fishing spots in the area and go after the biggest trophies out there. It helps if you already have some experience but ambitious beginners are welcome as well.

The adventure starts on a 60’ Viking fishing machine. This state of the art boat shows that comfort and professionalism go hand in hand - the vessel features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and an air-conditioned lounge area. She’s perfect for full day adventures, as well as overnight trips. There’s enough room for 11 guests to join the action.

The nearshore and offshore fishing spots hold many big game species that a lot of anglers dream of catching. Some of your possible targets are Sailfish, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Tuna, and different types of Marlin. Closer to the shore, you can go after Cubera Snapper and Roosterfish. If it’s within regulations, you get to keep the catch and the crew will clean and fillet it for you.

It’s easy to get ready for this adventure, as the crew takes care of almost everything. They cover your fishing equipment, snacks, and drinks, so you only need to prepare your fishing license in advance and pack some sun protection.

Pez Loco Sportfishing is all about high-adrenaline fishing. Become a part of this excitement and join the crew any time of the year.

We're out on a fabulous multi-day trip catching mostly sailfish and a little yellow-finned tuna. Yesterday, we had a monster marlin on the line, but that one got away. These sailfish put up a good fight and a dramatic show as they leap from the water, but in the end, it always feels good to caress them and set them free in the ocean where they belong.
