Your boat. Your crew. Your fishing adventure. Set out from Costa Rica’s northern Pacific coast on a private fishing trip shaped around your group. Your captain will choose the fishing grounds based on sea conditions and the length of your booking, giving you more time with a line in the water. Inshore fishing stays within approximately 3 miles of the beach and can target species such as Roosterfish, Snapper, Jacks, Mackerel and other coastal game fish. Offshore fishing takes you into deeper Pacific waters, where you may target Mahi-Mahi (Dorado), Tuna, Wahoo and Billfish, depending on the season, sea conditions and current fishing activity. Land a suitable fish and watch the crew prepare fresh sashimi right in front of you. You may also bring your catch back to the resort, where the chef can prepare it to your liking, subject to the resort’s arrangements. We offer: - Half Day Inshore Fishing - Full Day Inshore Fishing - Full Day Offshore Fishing

A canoe makes no noise. That is the whole point of this tour. Instead of a motor, you paddle the mangrove channels of the Las Baulas estuary at Playa Grande, and the wildlife stays where it is: migratory and resident birds, iguanas, coatis, raccoons, and howler monkeys in the branches above the water. Three hours on the water, three people to a canoe, with a guide trained by us who knows this estuary and its birds. Halfway through we leave the canoes for a short walk into the forest to look for the howlers, then paddle back. Private group only — you never share the canoes with strangers.
