If you're ready to try fishing in Puerto Vallarta, we've got you covered with Vallarta Fishing Charters.

These waters hold game fish like Sailfish, Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Striped Marlin, Roosterfish, Jack Crevalle, Bonito, Mahi Mahi, and more. During the trip, you might be popping, trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. You're welcome to bring snacks!

You'll be fishing aboard a 33' Bertram motor yacht that can carry up to 10 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, and all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. Mates often work for tips and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip.

Before coming aboard, you will need 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 may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect. You can't go wrong when you bring sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). There will be bottled water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Your trip with Vallarta Fishing Charters is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

Had a great time on the water!
4 Hour Trip (AM) on June 25, 202610 adults

Fishing is fishing and you catch what you catch...all the boys got to reel in some fish so that was good - albeit fish were small. Boat was great, crew was great, and regardless we had an amazing time. Would recommend.

Great whale watching
4 Hour Trip (AM) on January 1, 20258 adults1 child

Boat and crew were nice but we did not catch anything in 4 hours! However we saw baby whale and mother humpback jumping around for an hour so at least the fishing trip became a whale watching trip 😆😬😁

I love being out there in the ocean, my best memories are of fishing with clients and friends, these days we need to fish and enjoy the ocean helping and collecting plastic, and when possible releasing the fish.
