How did you get started guiding?
Fishing has always been part of our lives. Captain Diego was born in Limón, another historic fishing community in Costa Rica, while Mate Noe was born and raised in Playa Potrero, Guanacaste, one of the area's oldest fishing villages. We both grew up fishing with our families from a young age, when the ocean was not only our playground but also our source of food. That lifelong passion naturally grew into a profession, and today we're proud to share our knowledge and love of fishing with every guest who joins us.
What makes you different from other guides?
Captain Diego and Mate Noe make a great team by combining traditional local knowledge with modern technology. Noe has years of experience using traditional fishing techniques passed down through generations in Playa Potrero, while Diego uses the latest electronics and technology to locate productive fishing grounds. Together, they offer the best of both worlds.
