    What a great day!!

    6 Hours 3/4 Day Trip – Offshore on July 16, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had an awesome experience with Wahoo Sport Fishing in Quepos! The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and worked hard to make sure we had a great day on the water. We ended up catching two sailfish, two groupers, and plenty of bait fish, which made for an exciting trip from start to finish. The boat was clean and well-maintained, and they kept us well taken care of all day with plenty of snacks, refreshments, and fresh fruit. At the end of the trip, they cleaned and filleted all of our fish for us and even recommended a local restaurant where we could have our fresh catch cooked. It was such a fun way to end an incredible day.

    Great Day on the water

    8 Hours Full Day Trip – Offshore on February 25, 2026 • 3 adults

    This was our first deep water fishing trip. It was me and my 2 sons ( 13-15). We did catch 3 small Tuna luckily, the Captain said it wasnt a great day of fishing. The crew worked really hard to catch more, trolled through 5/6 different groups of tuna. We saw over 500 dolphins, a couple hundred tuna jumping, 5 sea turtles, and a shark. We all had a blast for our first time out, even though we didnt catch much. I would recommend this charter 100% to everyone, we will being doing this again!! One thing to note, waze will have you go to the marina ( drive past the entrance another 1/2 mile ish ) When trying to find the location, drive past the marina, the road will split and youll see a dirt road that goes straight, the pavement will turn left. The dirt road will lead you to a gate at the end. This is the road you want to take, once you get to the end just park on the right side by the fence. ( I included some pictures ). Also they did have some soda and water, they also grabbed some sandwiches for us. We did bring our own water and some snacks just incase. Footwear is whatever your comfortable in, we wore sneakers just to block our feet from getting burned.

    These guys put me on fish!

    8 Hours Full Day Trip – Offshore on April 30, 2026 • 1 adult

    My goal was big yellowfin tuna and man did we succeed! we ran out and caught bait immmediately. They we ran until we found activity and had a double header on yellowfin. I got exactly what i wanted. I will mention that if you are bringing fish home they do not vacuum seal it and it's about $3.50/lb in the marina. overall im very happy with Wahoo II charter and i recommend these guys!

Thank you so much for fishing with Wahoo Sport Fishing! We're thrilled to hear we helped you accomplish your goal of landing big yellowfin tuna — nothing beats a double header action day! Our crew works hard to get on the bait quickly and stay on the fish, so it's great to know you got exactly the experience you were hoping for. We also appreciate you mentioning the marina fish processing and vacuum sealing information for future guests. Thank you again for your recommendation and kind words about Wahoo II Charter. We hope to have you back on board soon for another epic tuna trip!
