Fishing in Tamarindo

Fishing and snorkeling at Flamingo Beach drinks and appetizers

Lifelong memories and our favorite experience while in Costa Rica!

My husband and I had an incredible experience with Bad Boys Fishing Charters. Captain Byron, Chris and Emilio were fantastic, going above and beyond all day. We caught beautiful fish (mahi mahi and tuna, plus a barracuda that almost ended up on our line as it chased a tuna), snorkeled, and learned a ton. We loved it so much that we booked them again the next day. Captain Byron knows the water and the fish, has a great sense of humor, and is an incredible chef. Chris and Emilio taught us so much too, and their love for Costa Rica is contagious. This was our first visit to Costa Rica, and we’re already planning to return so we can take our family fishing with this crew. Brenda was also helpful and informative when I was booking. We had a positive experience from the very first interaction to the follow-up afterwards. My husband and I both highly recommend Bad Boys Fishing Charters!

Deep Sea Fishing Private Charter in Tamarindo - 35' Cabo Express

Good crew and fishing but not fancy and no air conditioning.

Good captain and crew. Very nice people. But the online pictures of the boat are not accurate. And there is No air conditioning! It’s been broken for awhile yet they still advertise it. It was extremely hot. One very basic sandwich for lunch. We did catch one sailfish, one mahi mahi , one rainbow running one yellow tail so pretty good! Viator would only give a 10% refund even though we only booked this boat as it said it had air conditioning.

Wonderful Fishing Trip!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable fishing experience! 🎣🐟 We had such an amazing time fishing in Costa Rica! The crew was fantastic, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience so much fun. We caught an incredible variety of fish, and there was plenty of excitement throughout the trip. One of the highlights was coming back with all of this beautiful fresh catch and having the crew prepare it into fresh ceviche right for us. It was absolutely delicious and such a special way to enjoy the fish we had just caught! 🐟🍋🌴 This was definitely one of the highlights of our Costa Rica trip, and an experience our family will be talking about for a long time. If you’re looking for a fun, memorable fishing trip with a great crew, we highly recommend them! 🎣🇨🇷
