Premium Fishing Charter Service from Quepos Marina
When it comes to sportfishing in Costa Rica, Quepos stands apart. The Pacific waters off this small marina town consistently produce some of the highest sailfish catch rates in the world, along with blue and black marlin, yellowfin tuna, wahoo, mahi-mahi (dorado), and roosterfish. Our Quepos fishing charters give you access to these proven waters on fully-equipped sportfishing vessels with experienced Pacific captains.
Our charter fleet ranges from agile 28-foot center console boats, ideal for inshore and nearshore fishing, to powerful 50+ foot custom sportfishers designed specifically for offshore billfish. Every vessel is equipped with modern electronics, high-quality tackle, and all the safety equipment required for responsible offshore fishing.
The captains in our network are licensed Pacific fishing captains with decades of experience in the waters off Quepos. They know the current breaks where tuna stack, the underwater structure that attracts marlin, and the seasonal patterns of sailfish migration through the eastern Pacific. That local knowledge is what turns a good day on the water into a great one.
All fishing licenses are included, tackle is provided (though experienced anglers are welcome to bring their own preferred rods). Fish can be cleaned and filleted upon return to the marina, and we can arrange ice and packaging for guests wanting to take fish home.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size boat do I need for my group?
Vessel selection depends on your group size and target species. Center console boats (28–32ft) are perfect for 2–4 anglers targeting inshore species. Larger cabin cruisers (38–50ft) are ideal for 4–6 anglers heading offshore for billfish. We'll recommend the optimal vessel for your specific needs when you contact us.
When is the best season for fishing in Quepos?
Quepos offers world-class fishing year-round. Sailfish peak from December to April. Yellowfin tuna and wahoo are best from May to November. Mahi-mahi are present year-round with peaks in spring. Blue and black marlin are more common from May to November. There is genuinely no bad time to fish out of Quepos.
How many anglers can fish on one charter?
Depending on the vessel, 2–6 anglers can fish comfortably. We recommend no more than 4 for dedicated offshore fishing to ensure everyone has adequate rod time. For larger groups (up to 12), we can arrange multi-boat charters so no one misses out.
