Discover the thrill of sport fishing in one of Costa Rica’s most abundant fishing grounds. The South Pacific Coast, known for its natural beauty and whale watching opportunities, is also a paradise for anglers. Our private sport fishing tours offer you the chance to test your skills against some of the ocean’s most prized catches.
The waters off the coast of Uvita are teeming with a variety of sought-after game fish. While Marlin and Swordfish are often the stars of the show, you’ll also have the opportunity to catch Mahi-Mahi, Tuna, Mackerel, Sea Bass, Horse Mackerel, and other fighters that call these waters home.
Our experienced captain, with extensive local knowledge, will guide you to the best fishing spots, maximizing your chances of landing that dream catch. We employ various fishing techniques, including jigging and trolling, to ensure a diverse and exciting fishing experience.
Your adventure begins with a short 5-minute walk to the main entrance of the Punta Uvita sector of Marino Ballena National Park. After a brief safety talk and tour overview, you’ll board our well-equipped boat and set off into the Pacific. As you fish, you’ll have the unique opportunity to pay tribute to the famous “Whale Tail” formation that gives the park its name.
