Half Day Trip – Offshore (AM)
Family of four, Mom, Dad, daughter (17) and son (14), we had an amazing fishing afternoon with Marco and Guillermo, they know their stuff really well and put us on fish right away! We told them a few species we hoped to catch and they put their knowledge of the area and techniques to work! We caught and released 2 Sailfish, we also caught 2 Dorado, 1 Wahoo, 1 Yellowtail tuna and 3 White tuna (albacore). They made us tuna ceviche on board which was amazing, filet the fish to take with us and overall were super fun! Will definitely recommend them if you’re in the Nosara area!

Half Day Trip – Offshore (AM)
It was just my wife and I and by no means are we experienced. Rainy season in CR and we didn’t know what to expect. Captain and crew put us on fish immediately! we initially caught a small yellowfin keeper and a number of small black tuna that we used for live but. Caught100 pound sailfish. Then hooked and landed a 60-70 pound yellowfin! While fighting that yellowfin, we hooked into another sailfish. Incredible!! The other charters in the area were not as productive. I highly recommend Costa Catch Nosara to everyone. Fresh fruit and drinks on board were a nice touch. This was our first CR fishing trip and I plan to book with this crew if I can the next time we visit. Very professional and knowledgeable!! Thank you for a memorable adventure!!! Best part of our vacation by far!!! Pura Vida!!

Half Day Trip – Offshore (AM)
We had a blast on our half day of off shore fishing, Capt Marco put us on some tuna and there were 100’s of dolphin swimming in their school with the tuna close by. His crew member kept the boat tidy and fixed us up a wonderful fruit breakfast and a fresh tuna lunch after catching a mess of them. The boat ride back to shore was a relaxing treat to end the trip.

Half Day Trip – Offshore (AM)
We had an excellent time and greatly enjoyed everything with Captain Marco and First Mate Nelson. The weather was a bit choppy and the fish were hiding but the three large Sailfish we caught were all beautiful! The additional sights during the trip (whales, dolphins, a shark, sea turtles, flying fish, and more) were pretty incredible and the Yellowfin that we had for lunch was fantastic. We absolutely recommend without any hesitation and if in the area again will definitely book again!

3/4 Day Trip – Offshore
Captain Marco certainly knows what he is doing as does his first mate!! You can tell that fishing is their passion and they are serious about it. I’m a more playful person so would’ve loved a little more fun and interaction when we weren’t catching fish, perhaps finding ‘jobs’ our kids could do, but that is just my preference. They provided a delicious lunch and yellowfin tuna snack after we caught two!! If catching something is your goal, these two will get you there!!
