Exploring the Costa Rican Mangroves

Quepos Mangrove Tour (AM)5 adults

We did the 5am mangrove tour with Captain Andres. It was absolutely beautiful and the whole family had a great time! Andres treated us very well, spoke excellent English, and was extremely professional the whole time. Unfortunately, the fish were not biting while we were out there which was a bummer. I booked this charter for 5 hours and we didn’t catch anything during that time so the captain graciously allowed us almost 2 full extra hours! Finally we hooked 2 small fish. Fantastic service and overall a great experience!

    the crew went above and beyond

    Quepos Mangrove Tour (AM) • 4 adults

    The mangrove fishing trip was a highlight of our trip. The crew went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. One of them even jumped in the water to retrieve a fish that entered the mangrove root system! We had a great time!

    Tough day on the water, strong tide and hot weather

    Quepos Mangrove Tour (AM) • 6 adults

    We should have caught more fish to but I kept missing the hook sets. We caught one nice red snapper but nobody that we passed was doing any better. The crew was knowledgeable and worked hard but some days are just like that.

    Hola Eric Greetings!! Thanks for fishing with us and you are right one day is good and others are not too good but we always try to do our best Hope to have you again fishing some day Regards Karla and Andres
