Fishing in Tamarindo

Set along the sun-drenched Pacific coast of Costa Rica's Guanacaste province, Tamarindo is a premier destination for world-class sport fishing. Its nutrient-rich waters attract abundant marine life year-round, making it ideal for anglers targeting prized species like blue marlin, sailfish, mahi-mahi, yellowfin tuna, and inshore favorites such as roosterfish and snook.

Charters depart directly from Tamarindo's beaches or nearby marinas, with convenient transportation often included. Professional crews equipped with modern center consoles or luxury catamarans provide expert guidance through diverse fishing grounds. Options range from action-packed half-day inshore trips to full-day offshore adventures where billfish gather beyond the continental shelf.

The region's unique geography combines deep-water access with vibrant coastal ecosystems, allowing versatile fishing experiences. While winter months see peak sailfish and marlin activity, consistent catches occur throughout the year. Many charters practice catch-and-release conservation, ensuring sustainable trophy fishing for future generations.

Beyond the thrill of the catch, Tamarindo offers stunning coastal scenery with opportunities to spot dolphins, sea turtles, and migrating whales during excursions. With professionally outfitted boats featuring advanced fishfinders, outriggers, and comfortable amenities, Tamarindo fishing charters deliver unforgettable angling in one of Central America's most biodiverse marine environments.

Tamarindo Fishing Seasons

January

The winter months are peak tourist season in Costa Rica, and with good reason. What better way to start the year than by fishing offshore for Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, and Tuna?

February

Full day trips will give you plenty of time to head south in search of Billfish, while the year-round populations of Roosterfish and Snook are a perfect alternative when the winds kick up on a half day.

March

Spend the day battling Marlin, Sailfish, Tuna, Roosterfish, and Snook, then head to the annual Tamarindo Artisanal Beer Festival to celebrate your catches and mourn the ones that got away.

April

April marks the end of high tourist season and the beginning of the rains. The Tamarindo fishing calendar is just kicking off, though, and April is one of the best months of the year for offshore big game fishing.

May

The high winds of winter are just a memory come May, and the local fishing grounds are back on form. You can travel 20 minutes from land and be targeting Marlin, Sailfish, Tuna, and more.

June

Tamarindo fishing seasons don't change much, but the offshore bite gets more active in the summer. June sees an increase in Mahi, joining the big numbers of Marlin, Sailfish, and Tuna.

July

July 25th is Guancaste Day, celebrating the annexation of the province in 1827. There are celebrations and festivities across much of the province, making for the perfect end to a great day's fishing.

August

August is the last great month of summer in Tamarindo's deep sea fishing scene. Target Blue, Black, and Striped Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Yellowfin Tuna, and Wahoo, all just a short boat ride from town!

September

The whole of Central America celebrates its independence from Spain on September 15th. Unsurprisingly, this is quite a big deal, and you can expect happy crowds, celebrations, music, and dancing. 

October

The golden months of summer may be fading by October but so is the humidity, and with plenty of Billfish found year-round in Costa Rica, October is still a great month to visit Tamarindo.

November

November marks the start of high season but doesn't draw the same crowds as December and January. This is a great time to get offshore before the winds and other boats ruin the fun.

December

Tamarindo is busy in December, there's no avoiding that. There is a very good reason for it, though, with warm weather and great fishing. You may not get the place to yourself but it will still be great fun!
