Papagayo Ocean Adventures
Spend the day with Papagayo Ocean Adventures and get hooked on fishing in Coco! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Gary is prepared to put you on fish.
These waters are known for Mahi Mahi, Billfish, Striped Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, and more – with any luck, it won’t take long to hook into some. Captain Gary supplies the boat with the best rods and reels Penn International has to offer. Top of the line for trolling or bottom fishing!
If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. You’re welcome to bring snacks – lucky for you, there will already be some on board!
You’ll be dropping lines from a 33’ Pursuit Cabin Cruiser with space for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, and all the essentials. There’s a walk in bathroom downstairs for your convenience.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
You can’t go wrong when you bring sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray)! The charter provides fresh fruits, chips/ salsa/guacamole , sandwiches, bottled water, assorted soda and Costa Rica beer!
Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Papagayo Ocean Adventures.

3/4 Day Fishing Trip
Great experience!
Gary stayed in touch from the beginning of planning the trip which alleviated any concerns about the trip. Everything was as promised. Boat, equipment, food, and length of trip were right on. Everyone in our group caught a fish. Will definitely book him if/when we return to Costa Rica.

Great day with Papagayo Ocean Adventures!
The crew of Papagayo Ocean Adventures lived up to the name! Our family enjoyed a 6 hour trip filled with fishing, snorkeling and exploring beach caves! Captain Gary has really paid attention to the details of what makes a great outing! Looking forward to the next adventure with them!
