Fishing tour 4/5 H Trip (AM) on September 18, 2025 • 5 adultsI have been blessed to fish in Mex alot.The boat was clean, had a working radio and all the safety gear. A quick safety talk, game plan and gone. Angel and Brandon were on top of local conditions, could read the water and put us on fish. We caught multiple species and had an excellent trip. Would recommend the team to best of friends.
Tami Shroyer•Minnesota, USMember since 20255.0VerifiedEasy going Captain
Fishing tour 4/5 H Trip (AM) on April 9, 2025 • 2 adultsGive this captain a try! He spoke primarily Spanish but can converse enough in English to get things figured out. Fish were not biting the day we went out but Angel was determined for us to have a great time. No fish were caught but we did see a humpback whale and a sea turtle in April so that made it all worth it.
Steve Mosites•Pennsylvania, USMember since 20255.0VerifiedAn Unforgettable Experience!p
Fishing tour 4/5 H Trip (AM) on May 30, 2025 • 2 adultsCaptain Angel and his nephew Brandon are the ultimate team- there's no better crew! With respect, we caught and ate beautiful fish. Fresh ceviche made on the boat (try a bite of a Serrano with it, if you dare lol). 20/10 best deep sea fishing! You won't catch a better deal or experience
Nour Ben SalahMember since 20245.0Amazing fishing day with chingalin
Fishing tour 4/5 H Trip (AM) on February 24, 2023**An Unforgettable Day with Captain Chingalin** Our day with Captain Chingalin was nothing short of perfect. Punctual and professional, Captain Chingalin picked us up right from the beach for an amazing day of fishing. Not only did we enjoy the thrill of the catch, but we were also lucky enough to witness whales swimming gracefully under our boat—a truly breathtaking sight. The highlight of our day was catching fresh fish, which Captain Chingalin and his team expertly prepared into a delightful ceviche on a nearby island. The crew was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend Captain Chingalin's services to anyone looking for an extraordinary adventure. Their professionalism, friendliness, and unique touches made our trip one for the books. Thank you, Captain Chingalin and team, for a day we'll never forget.

Fishing & Snorkeling trip - 2:30 PM on October 30, 2024Fishing and snorkeling from Sayulita was a fun experience! Chingalin and his crew took care of me and my friends very well. We met on the beach in Sayulita. We had snacks and drinks onboard. He was happy and helped me fish. Snorkeling was easy off the boat, great coral and fish. There were beautiful sea and shore views off the boat. We stopped many times. I would definitely take another trip with Chingalin and his crew!

my arm hurts from reeling! constantly on the fish. very knowledgeable captain and crew.
We had a great time onnpur tour. caught some fish, saw some whales and had a great fresh lunch on the boat. Highly recommended
hi ! thank you so much for coming with us! it was a nice fishing day and we also had a great time ! see you soon ! and thank you for the review, it is deeply appreciated
I booked this trip as a present for my husband, accompanied by other family members. We were out on a 5 hour fishing trip which included catching our own live bait and hauling in 6 or 7 large Spanish Mackerel! Felix taught us how to fillet the fish on the beach and make ceviche, before snorkeling and enjoying a sunny afternoon on a private beach to ourselves. We were able to keep a few of the fish, freeze them and enjoy them at home as well. Cannot thank Felix and team enough for the really fun and active day on the water!! Cannot recommend highly enough.
