BEST SEASON (WHEN TO COME)

The deep sea fishing can be quite good the whole year, but our peak time, especially in terms of how many boats are here is December through June. The months of January and February tend to produce the most significant amount of marlin, but the sailfish, dorado, and tuna are found year round sometimes in amazing numbers. It's not unusually to catch Yellowfin Tuna that push the 250 pound mark, although under 100 lbs. is more normal. We are primarily a billfish destination, as the thousands of anglers that flock to Costa Rica each year will attest to. The prolific blue waters of this small country holds host to over 18 IGFA billfish records alone.

WHY COSTA RICA

Costa Rica plays claims over 84 different IGFA records, many of the billfish records caught in our area. We have the calmest waters, day in, and day out for this type of deep sea fishing than any other area in the world that I am aware of.

The waters here make even those most prone to feeling queasy want to stay out all day. Flat calm waters are the rule, not the exception. Although this point is arguable, we think we have the coldest beer of any boat in the fleet, and that is important on those hot and sunny days. There are other reasons as well, but we hope you will come down and discover them for yourselves.

THE CLIMATE

Typically this area of Guanacaste has a wet season and a dry season. The wet season starts around the end of May and continues through the month of October.

The rains, which normally occur in the morning or late afternoon are short in duration for the most part, and turn this part of the country into a beautiful lush tropical setting. September and October seem to be the months that produce the most rain.

The flowers can be spectacular!

The dry season quickly follows, normally seeing the last of the rains by the end of November.
