Why Fish In Tamarindo?

Simply put, we are closest to the fish. Our boats never run more than an hour (usually only 30-40 minutes) to look for bill fish. Spend your time catching fish, not chasing them!

The waters here are world famous for year 'round sport fishing.  While each year may be slightly different, the catch rate for all our game fish (Sailfish, Blue, Black and Striped Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Dorado, Wahoo, Roosterfish, Snapper) is fairly consistent all months of the year. There are no specific seasons here.

Traditionally, April through September are excellent for Sails, Marlin, Tuna and Dolphin. The seas are calm and it may rain in the afternoon. Our run time is very short as the fish can be found close to Tamarindo.  October through December sees the transition from rainy season to dry season here and we catch a variety of species, including billfish.  December through March are often windy so boats run up to an hour to the south to get to the good fishing out of the wind. Marlin and large Yellowfin Tuna are plentiful then, as well as Sailfish and dorado.
