Excited to cast a line in Tamarindo? Tamarindo Surf & Tours is your ticket! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain David knows them forwards and back.
Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Goliath Grouper, African Pompano Jack, Striped Marlin, Blue Marlin, Black Marlin, Pompano, Rainbow Runner, Sailfish, Yellowfin Tuna, Cubera Snapper, and anything else that bites. On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome!
Capt. David will bring you aboard a 35' Cabo Express sportfishing that can carry up to 8 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures.
You'll have the help of a Capitain, First Mate & Second Mate to put you on fish.
It's never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks included on board.
Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. Time to make it happen, with Tamarindo Surf & Tours!

3/4 Day Trip
We had a great time fishing with this group. They were all very nice and easy to get along with. Everyone in our group reeled in fish. We actually went in a little early, by our request, becuase we caught enough and we were all worn out. We would for sure recommend them and would book with them in the future.

Hands down the best fishing trip my family and I have ever been on. The action was nonstop—we pulled in a marlin, two sailfish, two tuna, and a mahi mahi, and it honestly felt like the rods never got a break. The crew was awesome too, super chill and fun but also on top of everything, which made the whole day easy and exciting. Between the fish we caught and how great the crew was, a true trip to remember!

Captain David and crew did the best. We asked for Tuna and Mahi Mahi. That was what he got us. I'd recommend this trip again.
