Gitana Fishing - Half Day Offshore

Excellent service and experience. Once I booked my trip, the boat owner (Gary) reached out immediately to confirm my trip and helped in suggesting places to go and things to do in Jaco, Costa Rica. Gary was very helpful in making my trip a success; he freely offered his contacts ...Read More and advice. Captain Gabriel was professional and experienced. He answered all our questions about the sea, weather and fish species. We drove about ten to fifteen miles and caught 7 fishes. Captain Gabriel and his assistant helped us in casting the lines and in reeling in the fishes. At the end of our trip, on the way back, the fishes were cut up and fileted. Captain Gabriel made a reservation for us at Coco restaurant, where we ate what we caught. It was a unique and exciting experience for my friends and I.

We had a fun fishing day with Captan Gabriel and Luca. Captain did an exceptional job keeping us over fish. Luca worked hard all morning cutting bait, baiting lines and taking off fish. Several of my family got sea sick and Gabriel was kind enough to bring them back to shore. ...Read More This is something to discuss ahead of time. We could more than enough smaller fish to feed my family of 11 at a local seaside restaurant, La Ostra, that evening. Gabriel made the reservations for us and I’m guessing it will be one of the highlights of our trip. Delicious! This was an exceptional value compared other charters I looked at!!! Be sure to bring cash or discuss methods of payment before hand.

First, this team is amazing at their customer focus. It took us multiple tries due to bad weather to finally make it out. The owner and the captain were great communicators, and tried hard to ensure the best trip out at sea. Once we did get out, Gabriel and Douglas worked ...Read More really hard for the entire time with multiple trolling lines for a higher chance to catch something. We caught a mahi, and Douglas then fileted it beautifully for us. Capt. Gabriel was a great driver, and navigated the sea and waves very nicely. They had lots of drinks, chips and fresh pineapple for us to snack on. The boat was extremely clean, and ample room for 4 of us to sit and move around comfortably. They even arranged water taxis for us, and Gabriel communicated extremely well via whatsapp. Excellent day out, and likely a long term cherished memory for my son’s first mahi catch! Would highly recommend this team, and this company. If we are back in the area, we will definitely go with them again!!

My boyfriend and I had a great time with the captain and his mate. We went bottom fishing and caught more fish than we could eat before we left the country! So we kept what we wanted and Captain Gabriel recommend a restaurant right on the beach that would be ...Read More able to prepare the fish for us. It was called coco’s on the beach. We gave them the bag of fresh cleaned fish and they cooked it the way we wanted it. The food was great but the highlight of the trip would definitely be the captain, he was informative, helpful, and really kind! Thank you Captain Gabriel and Gary it was worth the drive and I would definitely book again.

Should have been much better. The trip was scheduled for 8a-1p. We got started about 830a. We caught the first and only fish about 2 hours in. We trolled for another hour; no fish. We dropped our lines for about 30 minutes, then one of the two engines stopped running. ...Read More The fishing ended there. We got back to shore about 3p after a slow ride back. Capt Adv arranged for a $200 discount to accommodate the inconvenience. I'd rather have had a productive day fishing.
