About Your Trip

Step aboard a high-performance 34’ Ocean Master powered by brand-new 300 hp Mercury 4-stroke outboards and guided by over 20 years of local expertise. Built for speed, efficiency, and hands-on action, this vessel is designed for anglers who want to fish hard and stay in the heart of the action—whether you're trolling offshore or dropping lines nearshore.

With a true walk-around layout, 20+ rod holders, a dedicated fishing platform, and a full offshore setup including outriggers, downrigger, tuna tubes, livewell, dredge system, and bridge teasers, this boat is ready to run a tournament-grade spread. You’ll fish with custom stand-up gear featuring Shimano reels, 30–50 lb setups, Lobo Lures, and Palomar jigging equipment—ideal for targeting the heavy hitters that roam these waters.

A marlin tower with a full second station gives your crew a clear edge spotting fish, while a large hard top provides ample shade below. Inside, you'll find twin day berths and a private restroom for comfort on longer trips. Deck loungers and a bow lounger add space to stretch out between bites, and a premium sound system keeps the energy up throughout the day. Fully licensed, insured, and professionally crewed, this charter is tailored to deliver a top-tier experience from start to finish.

¾ Day & Full Day Fishing

These offshore trips put you on the path to Costa Rica’s top pelagic species. Depending on the season, you’ll be targeting yellowfin tuna, mahi mahi, sailfish, marlin, and wahoo. The boat’s speed and fishability mean more time with lines in the water and better chances at landing something legendary.

Included Onboard

All trips come stocked with fresh fruit, snacks, water, soda, and beer. Sandwiches are included on ¾ and full day trips. With advanced notice, you can upgrade the experience with wine, champagne, or specialty drinks for an additional charge.

What to Bring

Bring sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, comfortable clothing, a rain jacket, towel, any personal items you may need, and your favorite music (Bluetooth ready). Don’t forget your camera—there’s nothing like a hero shot with a big fish on deck.

Important: Fishing License Required

All anglers must purchase a Costa Rica sportfishing license online before your trip. This is mandatory for every guest participating in the fishing.

With tournament-grade gear, a fast and capable platform, and an experienced bilingual crew, this trip is all about maximizing time on the fish and making every moment on the water count.
