Coral reefs, breathtaking beaches, diverse wildlife – Huatulco, Mexico has it all. It also has Huatulco Fishing Adventures, one of the longest operating and the most renowned fishing charters in the area. Since they were founded in 1985, their main goal is to provide their clients with an unforgettable personalized fishing experience.
Your boat for the day will be the ‘Bandit,’ a 38’ Bertram convertible, operated by Captain Neri Pinacho. The vessel was fully restored in 2016 and rigged with top-notch marine electronics and safety gear.
It has outriggers, a flybridge, a full-head restroom, and a fighting chair. You’ll also find a refrigerator, a livewell, and even snorkeling gear on board. The Bandit can take you and up to five other anglers fishing without tangling lines.
Captain Neri is an experienced fisherman who’ll show you the most productive spots teeming with Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Marlin, and other prestigious species. He’ll take you up to 25 miles from the coast and teach you everything he knows about trolling, spinning, jigging, and deep sea fishing in general.
Billfish and Roosterfish are strictly catch and release, but you’ll get to keep anything else if you want. If you decide to do so, the first mate will clean the fish for you, free of charge.
You’ll be supplied with state of the art tackle, lures, snacks, drinks, ice, and licenses. Live bait is also available for additional $50. The captain will make sure you have everything you need for a productive day on the water. So go out and reel them in!

Full Day Trip
We had a great day today the boat we were on was excellent with a great crew. I had booked the Bandit because I had been on it previously and knew it had a fighting chair, the boat that we were put on was a bigger nicer boat but it didn’t have a chair. We caught three different species of smaller fish that were fun to catch and we got to take with us. We also hooked a marlin that broke the pole in half and snapped the line which might have been a good thing because it would have been a fight landing it with only the rod belt for support. But as I said before it was a great day. As a sub note they tried to charge us more because they put us on a bigger boat but agreed to the original price when I showed them my booking quote.

Great experience. 15ft swells. Crew did everything they could to get on the big game. No luck 🍀 We did drop in on some tuna closer inland and were able to fight some fish Ferrari’s. Fight like hell for 2ft fish. Well worth the money 💰

Great crew, very attentive and helpful! The boat is very nice as well! Big seas today, fishing was difficult! But we did end up with one Mahi Mahi!
