Capitanes Tours – VanDíaz 23'

Next time you visit La Paz, make sure to take a trip with Capitanes Tours! Join Captain Dagoberto for a day and he’ll teach you his best fishing tricks. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never fished before - you can learn it all here and start catching trophy fish immediately. With a bit of persistence and some luck, you’ll call yourself an angler in no time.

You’ll be fishing on a 23’ VanDíaz that accommodates up to 4 guests. This angler vessel is powered by a 115 HP Yamaha engine and reaches the speed of 30 knots. The boat is very comfortable for a full day trip, as it has lots of seating space in the shade, a private toilet, a multimedia system, a cooler, and snorkeling gear.

Explore various fishing spots, all depending on how far off the coast you want to go. Inshore, you’ll find Roosterfish, Bonito, Jack Crevalle, and Snapper, while offshore adventure brings bigger and faster fish - Mahi Mahi, Marlin, Sailfish, Tuna, Wahoo, Amberjack, and more.

Your fishing equipment is included in the price, as well as some soft drinks. Feel free to bring your own beverages and food. After the trip, the crew will also clean and fillet your catch. Don’t forget to bring sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses.

Capitanes Tours offers trips year round. You just need to tell the captain when you’re coming and let your adventure start!
