Los Cabos fishing is the stuff that angling dreams are made of. There are few places on the planet that offer such incredible action. Get ready for Billfish bites just a stone's throw from shore, along with plenty nearshore favorites to keep you on your toes. Add that to the chance of a BBQ as the sun goes down, and you've got the ideal vacation activity.
We mentioned Billfish, and you'd better believe us when we say there's a lot of them here. Blue, Black, and Striped Marlin are the pick of the bunch, with Sailfish also offering up plenty of entertainment and incredible scenes. Couple that with Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, and schools of Yellowfin Tuna, and you've got a real big game adventure on your hands.
Nearshore, there are plenty of reefs just bustling with some dazzling and delicious fish. Broomtail Grouper and Cubera Snapper are some of the more common catches, with Yellowtail, Mackerel, Jacks, and exotic Roosterfish providing a worthy supporting cast.
With great weather year-round, you can come fishing in Los Cabos whenever you fancy. Full day or extended full day trips are suggested for any pro anglers, but beginners and families can get plenty out of a half day voyage. Take a charter out of Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo, or the more quiet shores of the East Cape, and you'll be in for a real treat.
Rules & Regulations
Most charters in the area provide fishing licenses for all on board, but it's worth checking with your captain before going. Your professional guide will make sure you stick within bag and size limits, which are pretty generous compared to some US states.
