Pick the right crew and boat and you'll find the fish even though it may not be the perfect time of year.

The Mahi Mahi and Yellowfin are plentiful in August and the weather is goegeous! A bit of rain here and there but nothing you can’t handle!

Probably some of the best fishing in the world out of this port. Bring lots of protection from sun, long sleeve fishing shirts and pull over masks are great

Get a better boat for your trip don’t trust pictures for sure. You really need to see them before you book a trip.

These excursions are not for the hardcore fishermen types who want to do everything, i.e., bait the hooks, throw the lines out, etc.,

Only go with professional guides from the Los Suenos Marina if you want to catch fish and not get seasick on a boat that is too small for the swells.

Make sure you ready to catch some fish! Bring appropriate clothing UPF50 as you will be in the sun

Capt Jorge and Chris 10 stars! Their excellence and professionalism was outstanding.
Deron Braun
Slow bite, but captain and crew were great and worked hard to find us some fish!
Jason Cleveland
It’s a crap shoot in winter. Really look at tides and weather and book accordingly.
Brad Newbry
Drink a lot of fluids! Not counting beer, it is hot & humid here and subject to hear stress.
Dustin Landreth
Fishing was great with multiple species available and great weather with calm seas.
Amanda Lamerato
The perfect mix of patiently waiting for a bite and knowing when to look elsewhere!
Daniel Gowder

If you are going to charter, make sure your boat is out of the marina, not off the beach!
Keith Fritschen
Lots of fish and most of the boats in contact with our captain caught fish that day too.
Mindy Oltrogge
The in shore fishing isn’t good this time of year. Sail fishing was good. Tuna weren’t biting.
Charlotte Newell
Fish early in your trip, so you can eat your catch all week. We had to give away a lot of fish
Ronnie Lucido
Yes! Book Jorge! He’s reasonably priced. He’s knowledgeable and knows what he’s doing
Jorge Hernandez
Great experience with the crew and would recommend Andres and Arixa to everyone.
Celeste Streger
Fish in the morning this time of year. It rains almost every afternoon at some time.

Summer is the slower part of the season so if possible book a longer trip to give more time

Listen to local knowledge on what to target. Slow time in July but got grouper, and some tuna.

Go with Capitan Andres, and DO NOT rent your car from HERTZ at the San Jose airport.
