July is peak tourist season... for fish! Us humans tend to go in the winter, though, so you can score some serious deals and serious catches if you head there this time of year.

The sargassum is bad in the summer but not much you can do about that. It's fine once you get off the shoreline tho

Wear long sleeves, sun gets spicy. It’s a boat so it will be rocky so be prepared. It’s normal but take it into consideration.

Bring your own gear if you have the correct gear. Have the deckhand bait you up and set up trolling rigs and use their knowledge, but allow you to take it from there unless your a beginner.

Trolling was best for us, both for size and number of fish. Bottom fishing was a nice break for a little bit to try something different and catch a few trigger fish, but our favorite catches were all trolling.

“Unforgettable fishing experience in Cozumel! We went offshore fishing in July and the action was non-stop from the moment we dropped the lines. We caught mahi-mahi and even a big barracuda! The captain and crew were professional, friendly, and clearly knew the best spots. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable even in the summer heat. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who loves fast-paced fishing. Definitely, a trip to book when in Cozumel!”

Lots of sargassum to deal with, but the fish bite, and the snorkeling is great!

Just be aware of the sargassum. It’s really bad getting on the boat. But once you’re on the boat they wash your feet and legs off with water. No big deal for my wife and I. The experience was top notch and we caught so many fish

Nuj Kay Marlin Monroe is a fantastic crew with a great captain and boat!! Go for the bigger boat, avoid cheap rates with smaller boats as you’ll pay for it out on the water. Marlin Monroe was perfect for a family of 4, and kids slept down low in the cabin which also made it well worth it.

When we went was a bit of a transition between seasons but our captains were in contact with other boats and chased where the action was. Really responsive and invested in us having a good day.

For deep sea fishing, be prepared that it may take a couple of hours to find the fish, so enjoy the views and the refreshments. We had some scattered rain, but it didn’t slow us down. Take Dramamine BEFORE the trip so sickness doesn’t impact you half way through.
