About Your Trip

Go aboard with Captain Juan and experience the action-packed fishing that Cabo San Lucas has to offer! Cabo is a world-famous sportfishing mecca for a reason, and Juan is a perfect guide to these blue waters. On this trip, you can chase all of the epic sportfish that call Cabo home, with a beer in hand! The season here lasts all year, and the Marlin fishing in particular tends to eat up in the winter, so leave your jacket at home and get on deck!

Captain Juan will take you along the Baja coast, where you can expect to target Mahi Mahi, Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Roosterfish, Sailfish, and Wahoo. You will troll a variety of baits and lures for these trophy fish, so stay alert for that rod to start dipping!

On this trip, you'll be aboard a comfortable, custom 28' Uniflite sportfisher. This craft has everything you need for an awesome trip, including a full suite of electronics, two beds, a big live bait tank and ice chest, and a 6-cylinder, 315-horsepower Cummins diesel engine to get you offshore in a hurry! Captain Juan will supply everything you need, including rods, reels, bait, and tackle.
What you will need? A great attitude, some luck from King Neptune, and most important your favorite sunblock. You will also need to purchase a Mexican fishing license per day (16 and up need a license), or for the year, for everyone taking part in the fishing on the boat. Licenses are mandatory and can/will be purchased before leaving at the department of fish and game located in the Marina.
Please feel free to bring any extra foods or snacks you would like... including extra beer, water and sodas you can bring along or buy at the local store in the morning.
Captain Juan's team will supply everything else!

Excellent captain and experience; highly recommend! Although we only caught a few, he’s a great guy, trustworthy and also helped us with some local restaurant recommendations and connecting us with some of his local friends.
Five Stars all the way. I will be a repeat customer.
