Fishing near Jacó

Two marinas, one of Costa Rica’s best fishing coasts

Los Sueños Marina and neighboring Herradura Bay sit just 10–15 minutes north of Jacó and about 90 minutes from San José. From here, boats reach offshore grounds for sailfish, marlin, yellowfin tuna and mahi-mahi, while the islands and rocky points close to shore hold roosterfish and snapper.

Choose a compact boat for a relaxed half day, a fast sportfisher for a full day of billfishing, or an air-conditioned yacht for a celebration with the whole group.

Tell us your date, group size and hotel, and we’ll recommend the best boat for your trip.

Fishing charter FAQ

Questions before you book

Where do the charters depart from?

From Los Sueños Marina or Herradura Bay, both about 10–15 minutes north of Jacó. We confirm the exact dock and meeting time for your boat when you book.

Are the charters private?

Yes. Every boat on this page is a private charter — the boat and crew are reserved just for your group.

Should I book a half day or a full day?

A half day works well for inshore fishing and families. Choose a full day when sailfish, marlin or tuna are the goal.

What is included?

Every charter includes a captain, mate, fishing tackle and bait. Food, drinks and transportation vary by boat, so we confirm them with your quote.

Can you arrange transportation to the marina?

Yes. We offer private transportation from Jacó hotels and San José — just ask when you request your quote.

Do I need a fishing license?

Yes. Every angler on board needs a Costa Rica fishing license, which you can buy online before your trip. We’ll explain how when we confirm your boat.
