Make an adventure out of your next trip in Puerto Aventuras and go fishing with Fish Riviera Maya. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Mikael can tell you all about the local fishery.
Around here it's common to catch Blue Marlin, White Marlin, Sailfish, Bluefin Tuna, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Wahoo, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Great Barracuda, Caribbean Queen Snapper, Goliath Grouper, and more if conditions allow. You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Your boat for the day is a 32' Blackfin sportfishing boat that holds up to 6 passengers. It has outriggers, and all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.
Some essentials to bring are sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks for you on board.
You could keep reading this, but wouldn't you rather be fishing with Fish Riviera Maya?

4 Hour Trip – Early Morning
We had a group of four experienced fisherman. We charter this boat three days. We were not too interested in trolling we want to bottom fish. We would troll to the locations two bottom fish. We knew we were coming out in the off-season did not pick up any mahi-mahi but did pick up some Bonita, Spanish mackerel and barracuda. We did a lot of moving bottom fishing. The captain was putting us on fish. They supplied good Penn spin cast reels. He bounced around the bottom from 30 foot to 90 foot of water with fresh cut bait. We held the rods, felt the bites and caught the fish.. If we went to a location and wasn't getting any bites quickly, he was willing and anxious to move. They really tried to put us on fish. We found some big yellowtail snappers. We did four hour trips. It was all close to shore in the Gulfstream Waters, which is the deepest water near Porte adventure without traveling out over an hour. If I did it again, I would probably book a six hour trip so we could try some deeper water way offshore.. Captain and crew were great. They understood English so you could talk and joke with them. Sashimi and guacamole on the boat with your fresh catch was fantastic.

4 Hour Trip – Afternoon
What a fantastic trip we had. Gabriel, Rambo and Xavier took great care of us. We had cold beverages, and plenty of food. We hadn't even been out 15 minutes before I caught a Mahi Mahi. Xavier was right there to help. This crew is amazing! We felt very safe and comfortable on this charter. Very highly recommended.
