Start your day by meeting a local fisherman at our office before taking a short 500-meter walk to the marina, where your traditional artisanal fishing boat awaits. After a brief introduction, you'll head out onto the Caribbean waters during sunrise for an authentic fishing adventure along the beautiful coast of Cahuita.
Our fishing tour runs from 5:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and combines both trolling and bottom fishing, giving you the chance to target a variety of local species while learning techniques used by experienced Caribbean fishermen. Whether you're a seasoned angler or a complete beginner, your captain will provide guidance throughout the trip to ensure an enjoyable experience for everyone.
All fishing equipment is included, along with fruit and bottled water, so you can simply relax and enjoy your morning on the water. Depending on the season and conditions, possible catches include Tarpon, Kingfish, Mackerel, Snappers, and Amber Jacks. If you'd like to keep your catch, you're welcome to take it home to enjoy later, or you can choose to practice catch and release.
Beyond the fishing, this tour offers a unique opportunity to experience Cahuita from a completely different perspective. Watch the sunrise over the Caribbean Sea, admire the lush rainforest-lined coastline, and keep an eye out for dolphins, sea turtles, and seabirds that are often spotted along the way.
Fishing has long been an important part of life on Costa Rica's Caribbean coast, and spending the morning with a local fisherman provides an authentic glimpse into the traditions and culture of the region. Whether you're looking to reel in your next big catch, enjoy a peaceful morning on the ocean, or simply take in the incredible scenery, this tour is the perfect way to experience the natural beauty and maritime heritage of Cahuita.
