Incredible Cozumel fishing Tour!

I just got back from a fishing trip in Cozumel, and I have to say that it was one of the best experiences I've ever had. I embarked on a four-hour trip with an experienced guide and a small group of other fishermen. From the moment we set sail, I knew we were going to have a great day

The sea was calm and the sun was shining. The guide took us to a couple of different spots where he knew we could find fish. It didn't take long for us to start catching fish, and soon everyone had caught several

Mahi-mahi and Wahoos!

I was lucky enough to catch a couple of mahi-mahi and a wahoo. The mahi-mahi were beautiful, with their shiny golden scales. The wahoo was a fierce fighter, but I finally got it. The guide cleaned and filleted the fish for us, and we took it back to the dock to have it cooked.

A perfect day

It was a perfect day. The weather was perfect, the fishing was incredible, and the company was great. I highly recommend this Cozumel fishing tour to anyone visiting Cozumel

What type of fish can I catch on a Cozumel fishing Tour?

Fishing calendar

Cozumel is an excellent place to practice fishing as it is an island surrounded by sea. There are different places where we know where there is a higher probability of catching something. Share your expectations with the crew as we have all levels of experience.

Some of the most popular fish species that can be caught in Cozumel are

• Sailfish: The most coveted fish by experienced anglers, it is a large and powerful gamefish found in deep water, renowned for its incredible fighting prowess
• Blue Marlin: Another highly sought-after deep-dwelling monster, renowned for their speed, strength, and immense size
• Tuna: Found in deep waters and nearshore, renowned for their spirited fights and delectable flavor
• Swordfish: A Deep-Sea dweller with a long, slender beak, known for its speed and agility
• Mahi Mahi: A fish that delivers an exhilarating and adrenaline-pumping fight, renowned for its explosive bursts of speed, sudden direction changes, and acrobatic leaps out of the water. Prepare to summon all your skill and endurance to subdue this powerful fish.

These are the most popular, but there are other good species like

• Wahoo
• Amberjack
• Grouper
• Yellowtail
• Bonito
• Barracuda

While fishing is possible year-round in Cozumel, there are migration seasons when catching larger and better-quality fish is more likely. The best time is between April and June when the weather is warm and dry

Sustainable Fishing

You choose to employ the Catch & Release technique, considered a responsible fishing practice where, after catching and carefully handling the fish, you release it back into the water alive

This practice contributes to species conservation and the protection of marine ecosystems. Fish play a critical role in marine ecosystems by controlling prey populations and maintaining ecological balance. Releasing fish helps maintain the health and function of these ecosystems

Catch and release fishing promotes a more ethical and responsible form of sport fishing, where the goal is not merely to kill fish, but to enjoy the fishing experience and respect marine life

The world of fishing is constantly evolving, and we're at the forefront of this exciting journey. We offer a comprehensive range of fishing techniques, ensuring you have access to the most suitable methods for your angling pursuits.

Throughout our endeavors, we maintain the utmost respect for the delicate marine ecosystem, ensuring our practices align with sustainable and responsible fishing principles.

We assure you that we will do everything possible to meet your fishing expectations

It goes without saying that we can change the fishing technique at any time the customer wishes; we are at your service and disposal

• Pesca Ligera: It's a technique that uses lighter rods, reels, and lines. It's characterized by focusing on precision and sensitivity, making it a more delicate and interactive form of fishing

• Spinning

What payment options do I have for my Cozumel Fishing Tour?

We have two payment methods

• Pay on the day of the excursion **Restrictions apply**
• Pay a deposit to secure that boat

I want to fish in Cozumel, but I'm coming from elsewhere. What options do you have?

I want to fish in Cozumel; however, I am arriving on a cruise

Cruise companies offer cozumel fishing tour through their sales system and use various strategies or tactics to encourage customers to purchase through them

These cozumel fishing tours are more expensive because the cruise earns a hefty commission that the customer ends up paying for; in other words, they don't do it for free

The 2 most effective techniques are

• Fear of the unknown: Many cruise passengers, especially those traveling for the first time, may feel some apprehension about exploring an unfamiliar destination on their own. Cruises capitalize on this fear by presenting their Cozumel fishing tour as a safe and reliable option, backed by the reputation of the cruise line
• Time pressure: Cruise itineraries are often tight, which can create a sense of urgency among passengers to book their cozumel fishing tours in advance. This, combined with marketing tactics employed by cruise lines, can lead some passengers to make hasty decisions without comparing prices or seeking alternatives

It's important for cruise passengers to be aware of these tactics and conduct their own research before booking any cozumel fishing excursions. There are many local companies (like ours) in tourist destinations that offer high-quality excursions at more affordable prices. By comparing prices, reading reviews, and seeking recommendations, passengers can make informed decisions and make the most of their cruise experience

If it's your first time on a cruise, I recommend buying the cozumel fishing tour on board the ship. However, if you've been on a few cruises already, you can save money and have more flexibility by booking fishing excursions on land on your own. Just make sure to research thoroughly, compare prices, and read the terms before booking

If you book with us and you're arriving on a cruise, we offer the following

• We know the arrival and departure times of your cruise, so we always finish the cozumel fishing tour at least 3 hours before the departure of your cruise. Therefore, we guarantee that you will not miss your cruise
• More competitive prices: Cozumel fishing tour operators you can contact directly on the internet are much more motivated to provide you with the best possible experience. In such a competitive market like the internet, they know they must strive harder to stand out and secure your booking

You are coming on a cruise and have already booked with us

If you are arriving on a cruise and have paid a deposit, we can pick you up from a nearby dock at the cruise terminal where your ship is docked

That meeting point is a 5-minute walk from the terminal, so there's no need to take a taxi and deal with the stress of finding a boat in a large marina

I want to fish in Cozumel, however, I am coming from Cancún, Playa del Carmen, or Tulum

If you have paid a deposit and are not in Cozumel but in Playa del Carmen, we can pick you up at the dock where the ferries arrive from Playa del Carmen, and the boat will be waiting for you at an alternate dock ready to set off on the fishing adventure in Cozumel

I want to fish in Cozumel, and I am in Cozumel:

If you have paid a deposit and are staying in Cozumel, we can pick you up directly from the comfort of your hotel. If you are in a house or Airbnb, just share your location on Google Maps and the time, and we will gladly pick you up at your specified time

I want to pay on the day of the excursion

We understand that some customers may not feel comfortable paying a deposit to a stranger. We are sensitive and understand your concerns. With us, you can make a reservation and pay on the day of the excursion; however, these conditions must be met

• Maintain constant communication via WhatsApp, text message, or phone call
• Client must notify in advance when they are on their way to the marina
• Client must arrive at the marina where the boat is docked

But send us a message telling us your expectations, and I'm sure we can tailor to what you're looking for. We are a 100% flexible family-owned company

Needless to say, we will always stay in touch via WhatsApp, text message, or phone call

It's a private Cozumel fishing excursion, Flexibility

Check out this common example to get an idea of our flexibility and one of the advantages of a private fishing excursion in Cozumel

A fishing adventure in Cozumel with an unexpected twist!

My wife and I decided to embark on a fishing tour in Cozumel. While I am an experienced fisherman, she had never tried this sport before. Despite her initial doubts, she was excited about the experience

At first, everything was going wonderfully. We enjoyed the sun, the sea breeze, and the thrill of casting the rod into the sea. However, after half an hour, my wife started to feel seasick. The crew, attentive and understanding, helped her return to the dock so she could rest

Despite her discomfort, my wife didn't want me to abandon the fishing tour. She encouraged me to keep fishing and to enjoy the experience. So, with her support and that of the crew, I continued fishing for a few more hours

At the end of the day, I returned to the dock with a good number of fish and a memorable story. Even though my wife couldn't accompany me for the entire excursion, we enjoyed the experience together and shared unforgettable moments

I want to thank the crew for their professionalism, kindness, and understanding. They did everything possible to ensure that my wife and I had a positive experience despite the unexpected circumstances.

If you're looking for a Cozumel fishing tour, I highly recommend this company without hesitation. They are professional, attentive, and dedicated to providing their clients with a memorable experience
