Cabo San Lucas is located at the southern end of the Baja Peninsula, which means it has access to both the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific. The arid and prickly landscape falls into the deep blue ocean creating a stark contrast between land and water. This is a unique and diverse place to wet a line with a variety of sport fish for anglers to target. Just past the waves and rocks, the ocean floor drops off reaching depths of over 1,200 feet. No other sport fishing destination offers opportunities to target sailfish, marlin, tuna, mahi-mahi, roosterfish, and the other various pelagic species within a short boat ride from the dock. Fishing charters in Cabo are typically run on sport fishing boats equipped with all the amenities you need to stay comfortable on a long trip.

Whether you're on family vacation, or traveling specifically for the unmatched fishing, our Damn Good Guides have you covered when fishing in Cabo. The charter fleet in Cabo is extensive, with plenty of modern boats equipped with all the bells and whistles needed to create the perfect fishing experience.

Looking at Cabo's location on a map, it's not hard to understand why it's one of the best fishing destinations on the planet. Situated at the very tip of the Baja Peninsula, Cabo is surrounded by water on 3 sides. The mouth of the California Gulf makes up the western waters, while the North Pacific Ocean surrounds Cabo to the south and east.

It's very rare to have a destination that's located so close to the continental slope as Cabo is. Essentially, you can get to very deep fishing waters very quickly. Typically, reaching bluewater fishing grounds takes hours depending on where you embark. Not in Cabo. World-class pelagic species like Blue and Striped Marlin, Yellowfin and Bluefin Tuna, Wahoo, and Mahi-Mahi are just a short hop away.

Cabo's consistently warm weather means something is always in season. There are plenty of fishing charter options for the experienced angler, the newbie, and everyone in between. Catching something is guaranteed, the only question is how big!

Not to be overlooked are the nearshore waters that surround Cabo. The seafloor structure just minutes from port is home to many bucket list species, with the most sought after being the Roosterfish. Named for their 7 long dorsal spines that resemble a rooster's comb. The strange-looking Roosterfish is sought after by all serious saltwater anglers. The average weight of these trophies is around 20 pounds, but they've been recorded at over 5 feet long and 120 pounds.

The productive nearshore waters off Cabo are home to many other species as well. Cubera Snapper is the largest of all the snappers species and a prominent Cabo resident with peak fishing opportunities from April to September. Wahoo and Mahi-Mahi can be found chasing bait in shallow water during the summer and fall, and the delicious Yellowtail is found in Cabo year-round.
