OCEAN ADVENTURES · SOUTH PACIFIC

Sport Fishing

The southern waters of Costa Rica are world-renowned among anglers. Offshore, seasoned crews target prized species like marlin, sailfish, yellowfin tuna, and mahi mahi.

Closer to the coastline, inshore fishing delivers action with snapper, roosterfish, jacks, and grouper.

Whether pursuing big game offshore or exploring inshore hotspots, this is an opportunity to experience one of Costa Rica’s most coveted fishing grounds, guided by expert crews and outfitted with top-tier gear.

INSHORE & OFFSHORE

Fish the Waters of the Osa

The experience can take you offshore in search of marlin, sailfish, yellowfin tuna, and mahi mahi, or closer to the coastline for species such as roosterfish, snapper, jacks, and grouper.

The route and style of fishing depend on sea conditions, availability, and what guests are hoping to pursue that day.

Experienced local crews bring strong knowledge of these waters, supported by high-end fishing equipment and a fleet suited to both inshore and offshore fishing.
