This group hit Mahi Mahi action big time! As we near the end of peak season for these great fighting fish, it is a rare treat to hook so many during one single 4-hour afternoon private fishing charter. Mahi Mahi are available year-round in the Riviera Maya, with their peak season occurring from late spring to early fall (approximately May through July/August), driven by warmer waters and increased baitfish. While they are still caught outside of these months, the abundance and consistency are lower during the less peak periods, such as January to February and October to December. Always a pleasure to be out at sea along the southern Riviera Maya coastline.

Nothing like some well-earned guacamole & chips, sandwiches, fruit and fresh ceviche made from your catch after a long day out at sea.

Managed to get a beautiful sailfish on board for a quick photo shoot, even though by the end of July, the prime sailfish season in the southern Riviera Maya is typically winding down as waters warm and the fish begin their migration. Also, over the last few weeks Mahi Mahi have literally been jumping into the boat. A great time to be out at sea!

Lots of action out at sea during this high season. The Pescado Adventures teams have been working double time to keep up with cleaning lines of sargassum, while pulling loads of Mahi Mahi and quite a few sailfish on board. Both are running hot at the moment. Demand is up and availability limited, so contact us now if you want a piece of the action.

It is definitely Mahi Mahi season along the southern Riviera Maya coastline. Now is when they are running hot. Although this has not been great for beach lovers, Mahi are often associated with floating debris or weed lines, like the sargassum which we now have a lot of in the Caribbean. These floating ecosystems provide shade and cover, which baitfish utilize to hide from predators. This concentration of bait is what ultimately draws in the game fish. So let's get out there and go find some fish!

Good weather, good fishing and good food. You beat that combination!
