About Your Trip

Get ready for an epic day on the water in Flamingo, Costa Rica—one of the world’s top sportfishing destinations. With a prime location on the Pacific coast, this trip gives you the best of both worlds: explosive offshore action and thrilling inshore opportunities, all backed by expert guidance and top-tier equipment.

Offshore & Inshore: All the Action

Start your morning at 7:30 AM aboard a fully outfitted 29’ sportfisher, ideal for up to six guests and equipped with everything you need for a successful day—from high-end rods and reels to a clean restroom and Bluetooth sound system so you can cruise to your favorite tunes.

Offshore, the bite is hot with Sailfish, Yellowfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Amberjack, and Spanish Mackerel. Your captain will troll a spread of live bait and artificial lures, dialing in on the most productive spots for big-game hookups. The fight is real, and the payoff is unforgettable.

Prefer to stay closer to shore? The inshore grounds around Flamingo are loaded with action too. Roosterfish are the stars here—powerful, fast, and a must-catch in Costa Rica. You’ll also target species like Amberjack and Mackerel using a mix of live bait, bottom fishing, and lures. It’s a hands-on experience perfect for anglers of all skill levels, including families with kids.

What’s Included

All tackle, bait, and fishing licenses are covered. Live bait is included, and your guide will clean and fillet your catch back at the dock. Bring your favorite snacks and drinks (beer is welcome—just skip the glass), some sun protection, and your sense of adventure.

And if the weather doesn’t cooperate? No worries—you won’t lose your deposit.

Whether you're chasing offshore giants or stalking inshore bruisers, this Flamingo trip packs the perfect mix of comfort, action, and world-class fishing. Let’s go make it a day to remember.
