    Skunked …. but worth it

    Tough day with high pressure front moving through overnight but Capt Osvoldo tried it all: changing baits, colors, speeds, depths. Kid even tossed out two “bonus hour” lines on way back in when we passed a school of bait fish. We did see lots of dolphins and sea turtles and shot some good video. Hope to try again during better part of the season

    Brutal experince 10 out of. 10

    This was my very first deep-sea fishing experience, and it couldn’t have been better. From the moment I booked the trip, communication was excellent. The captain was incredibly friendly, professional, and flexible with the schedule, making the entire process easy and stress-free. They arrived right on time to pick us up, took us to buy food and drinks before heading to the marina, and made sure everything was ready for a great day on the water. The fishing equipment was in excellent condition, and it was clear that the captain and crew have years of experience. The day was unforgettable. We spotted dolphins, caught two huge sailfish and a mahi-mahi, and even had the opportunity to help rescue a sea turtle that had become trapped in floating debris before releasing it safely back into the ocean. The crew was attentive, helpful, and genuinely committed to making sure we had an amazing experience from beginning to end. If you’re looking for a fishing charter with outstanding service, experienced professionals, and memories you’ll never forget, I highly recommend them.

    We went out on a half day (5 hour) fishing trip with Huatulco Fishing Adventures and Captain Neri’s crew. The crew was knowledgeable and professional. The boat was comfortable and there were plenty of beverages. We caught a Marlin and couldn’t be more thrilled! We are having Marlin on the grill tonight. Thank-you for being the highlight of our vacation.

    Exciting fishing day

    Today we had the honor of receiving our friends who came from Canada on their cruise. We picked them up at the Marina Santa Cruz to live an adventure that exceeded all expectations. The peak of the day was the battle with an imposing Sailing Fish. The best of all was not the capture, but the moment to return him to the water; seeing his strength when he is released is something that connects you with nature in a unique way. Thank you friends for visiting us and for sharing this day of sun, laughter and responsible fishing. Huatulco never disappoints

    Amazing Fishing Experience

    Came down to Puerto Escondido to catch something big and we caught 2 massive Sail Fish. The whole time you are fishing you are surrounded by dolphins and sea turtles as they guide you to feeding frenzies. In the feeding frenzy you'll see Marlin, Sail Fish, and Tuna striking the surface. Pretty surreal experience. The crew is knowledgable, passionate about fishing, and helped me clean the fish when we got to the beach. Great photographers too. He has a very hi res insta360 so you do not have to worry about photos at all!

    Great day fishing with captain Kevin

    Great day of fishing with the Shark boat and captain Kevin. Kevin was very knowledgeable and very informative on what they were doing and looking for. For those that don’t speak Spanish his English was very good and was able to answer all of our questions and give us concise instructions as this was our first time fishing for large offshore warm water fish. When a marlin tail was spotted Kevin was able to get the boat turned around and put our bait inform of the marlin. I landed a 7.5 foot (2.3 m) stripped marlin. Definitely a catch of a life time. As a bonus we landed quite a few smaller Mahi-mahi fish as well as sea turtles and too many dolphins with some up so close you can almost touch them.

    Gregorio is a skilled Captain with good knowledge of local fishing waters . He was easy to talk to in English and Spanish. We went offshore fishing he had lines out quickly and adapted for conditions. We got lucky and caught 40 lb Mahi Mahi which was an incredible experiece.All being said even if we didnt get a fish the experience to get out there is worth it with Gregorio competive rates.
