Hoping to go fishing in La Paz? Fernando's Tours is your ticket!

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Bonito, Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Roosterfish, Striped Marlin, Sailfish, Yellowtail Snapper, Skipjack Tuna, Yellowtail Amberjack, and anything else that bites. You'll target your catch by trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned.

Your vessel for the day is a 25' Center console that holds up to 4 passengers. It comes with outriggers and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Fernando will supply rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation. Before coming aboard, it may be necessary to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

Families making a day of it will be glad that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest, ask if there's one on board. It's recommended to bring snacks, a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.

Treat yourself to a day on the water with Fernando's Tours.

Half Day Trip on July 26, 20264 adults

Captain Fernando and his assistant Alfredo made this an unforgettable trip. We booked a half-day fishing charter and had such an amazing time that we immediately booked another day with them for a beach and fishing tour. They exceeded every expectation and paid attention to every detail, making sure we had an incredible experience from start to finish. Their professionalism, knowledge, and friendly personalities made the trip even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for an unforgettable day on the water, I can’t recommend them enough. 1000/1000—highly recommend!

Eduardo is the man!
Full Day Trip on April 4, 20262 adults

Eduardo "Eddie" was our captain, and we could not have had a better day fishing. We were the first boat to get to the hot spot for the day, and caught Dorado after Dorado. While other boats struggled to catch fish, Eddie had us on the mahi from the start! We finished the day filleting the fish and eating fresh sashimi on a beautiful sandy beach. We have 30 lbs of dorado fillets to bring home. Would recommend this trip to any angler.

Fun day on the ocean!
Half Day Trip on January 2, 20262 adults

We tried hard to catch some Mahi, but no luck. It was a great trip anyway! I'd recommend Fernando and his crew to anyone looking for a wonderful day on the water.

Captain Fernando has been fishing since he was a kid and he never stopped. Being the son of a fisherman, it felt natural to continue with the family tradition. It didn't take long till his passion became a profession. This style of living lets him meet new people all the time and it's a great 'excuse' to do what he loves the most - catch big game fish!
