Do not drive from San Jose. The 3 hour trip actually takes 6. Take a 50 minute flight into Liberia on Sansa Air. You will thank me later.

Great way to experience offshore fishing or indoor fishing for less money you could actually do two great trips with this boat versus one out of the marina. The price cannot bet

If fishing in Coco for the first time I would highly recommend Papagayo fishing with Arnaldo, Mark and Esmerelda! This family owned business is the best as they know how to catch fish! They are definitely the fish whisperers! Pura Vida!!!

Not sure if it gets better than a mahi and a sailfish for a day of fishing as it was my first time doing that kind of fishing; but we caught some, didn't get skunked, kids had fun, and filled our bellies with the mahi.
