  So many Mahi!

  Half Day Near Shore on June 19, 2026 • 2 adults

  We caught way more fish than we knew what to do with! Luis knew exactly where to go and we got fish after fish until our arms were sore! They were super nice too, offering us sunblock after I mentioned I left ours in the car. The first mate even offered us some mangoes he picked in his garden that morning. They really went above and beyond. Something I wish we had known ahead of time, there's no dock at Playa Herradura, there's a smaller boat that picks you up at the beach and takes you to the larger boat moored just offshore. You have to get into the water to get on the boat so come ready for that. I told my daughter not to wear sneakers but she didn't listen of course.

  Rooster Check!

  Half Day Trip on April 5, 2026 • 2 adults

  My buddy and I booked this fishing charter with a goal in mind. To catch the beautiful Roosterfish and potentially take some good eating back home to the house. Capt Luis and his mate were very kind and informative. Luis enjoyed answering any questions we had and conversed in other things not fishing related. First 2 hours or so was slow , but these gentlemen put in the work and didnt stop until we started consitently catching fish. The Jack crevales were chewing, then my buddy got a very nice spanish mackerel that we ended up taking home. We had about an hour and a half left of our trip and still no Roosterfish. Luis was working overtime to get us the main targeted species and just like that my buddy and i both hooked up on beautiful Roosterfish! The four of us celebrated and their work really paid off. I would highly recommend a trip with Capt. Luis and his mate! Pura Vida!

  Fishing with Nicholas

  Half Day Near Shore on July 13, 2026 • 3 adults

  Our 18 yr old son loves to fish so this was top of our list when visiting Costa Rica. He caught a yellow fin tuna, Mahi Mahi and multiple other fish (rabbit, grouper, Margherita fish and banana fish). The crew cleaned it and we grilled the tuna steaks for dinner back at our VRBO. The crew worked to help us catch the fish and make it a great memory with our son

  What an experience!

  3/4 Day Trip on March 14, 2026 • 4 adults

  We had a nice family day trip and it was an amazing time. We weren't sure if we would catch anything significant, but ended up catching two ~150lb sailfish! After that we told the captain we would be interested in catching some fish to eat, so he made it his mission to catch as many smaller eating fish as possible. We ended up catching another 8 or so fish, and they made a fresh ceviche right there on the boat for us! We chose the 3/4 day trip and that was about perfect. I would highly recommend doing this!
