Papagayo Costa Rica Fishing

Welcome to Papagayo Fishing,
The gulf of Papagayo in Costa Rica has some of the best Inshore Fishing in the world and especially for the famous roosterfish and seasonal grouper. Considered a hard fighting fish, the Roosterfish is not good table fare. Consequently, this fish is treated as a catch and release species. These fish often reach up to 100 pounds and offer an excellent sporting adventure. If you've never gone fishing in your life and want to learn, or if your are fishing with your kids, we're still the right people to talk to first when sport fishing in Costa Rica. Our experienced staff will help you fulfill your fishing adventure right down to the last detail,Our captains and mates are local people with a large experience fishing these waters. We have been fishing here since around 25 years ago; firstly as commercial fishermen and later as sport fishermen due the arrival of much tourism to our region. and of course we fish for other species such as: dorado, tuna, cubera snapper and seasonal grouper and red snapper.

WE ARE BOATS OWNERS!!!, so why not to book with us and save some money and headaches when you vacation in Papagayo Costa Rica. Each boat captain and crew will make all what they can do to reach the best fishing places and to catch the fish you are looking for.
