Welcome aboard Pirata Boat Sportfishing & Charters in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca!

I’m Captain Osvaldo Jesus, and my goal is simple: to give you an unforgettable day on the Pacific and put you in the best possible position to catch the fish you’re looking for.

Puerto Escondido offers incredible offshore fishing. Depending on the season and conditions, we target Pacific Blue Marlin, Black Marlin, Striped Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Yellowfin Tuna, Skipjack Tuna, Roosterfish, and other pelagic species.

Every trip is different. Ocean conditions, currents, water temperature, bait and fish activity all help determine where and how we fish. We may use trolling, popping, spinning or jigging, adapting our strategy to the conditions and the species we’re targeting.

🎣 Offshore & Big Game Fishing

Blue Marlin is one of our main targets, and we take the search seriously. Whether you’re an experienced angler chasing your next trophy or fishing offshore for the first time, I’ll guide you through the techniques and help you make the most of your time on the water.

🚤 The Boat

You’ll fish aboard a 27-foot Imemsa Panga for up to 5 passengers, equipped with outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, quality rods and reels, lures and safety equipment.

A First Mate will also be aboard to assist with tackle, fish handling and anything you need during the trip.

🌊 More Than Fishing

For me, a successful trip isn’t only about catching fish — it’s about experiencing the Pacific. Depending on the conditions, you may encounter dolphins, sea turtles, whales, seabirds and other marine life.

✅ Included

Fishing license, rods & reels, lures, fishing equipment, First Mate and safety equipment.

Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, comfortable clothing and water. Drinks are available, and alcohol is permitted in moderation; no hard liquor or glass bottles.

Come aboard Pirata Boat Sportfishing & Charters and let’s go find out what’s waiting offshore.

    Half Day Trip - (Mañana) on June 30, 2026 • 2 adults

    This was my very first deep-sea fishing experience, and it couldn’t have been better. From the moment I booked the trip, communication was excellent. The captain was incredibly friendly, professional, and flexible with the schedule, making the entire process easy and stress-free. They arrived right on time to pick us up, took us to buy food and drinks before heading to the marina, and made sure everything was ready for a great day on the water. The fishing equipment was in excellent condition, and it was clear that the captain and crew have years of experience. The day was unforgettable. We spotted dolphins, caught two huge sailfish and a mahi-mahi, and even had the opportunity to help rescue a sea turtle that had become trapped in floating debris before releasing it safely back into the ocean. The crew was attentive, helpful, and genuinely committed to making sure we had an amazing experience from beginning to end. If you’re looking for a fishing charter with outstanding service, experienced professionals, and memories you’ll never forget, I highly recommend them.

    Skunked …. but worth it

    Half Day Trip - (Mañana) on November 2, 2026 • 4 adults

    Tough day with high pressure front moving through overnight but Capt Osvoldo tried it all: changing baits, colors, speeds, depths. Kid even tossed out two “bonus hour” lines on way back in when we passed a school of bait fish. We did see lots of dolphins and sea turtles and shot some good video. Hope to try again during better part of the season

Hi, I’m Osvaldo Santos, a local captain from Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca. The ocean and its incredible wildlife have always been a very important part of my life. I have a deep respect for the sea and the environment, and over the years I have learned that every day on the water is different. I’ve been on the water for 15 years, fishing and exploring along the Pacific coast of southern Mexico. During this time, I’ve targeted many different species and learned from countless days on the ocean, as well as from experienced local fishermen and old friends who have shared their knowledge with me. Fishing has taught me to read the ocean, understand its changing conditions, and adapt our techniques to what the day gives us. My goal is to use that experience to put you in the best possible position to have a great day on the water and, hopefully, some excellent catches. Whether you’re an experienced angler or it’s your first offshore fishing trip, I’d be happy to have you aboard and share a day of fishing on the Pacific with you. I hope to see you on the water! Captain Osvaldo Santos.
