We had a great time on our fishing charter! Jose booked everything for us and was so helpful in the process. His son was our captain and the crew took really good care of us out on the water. 10/10 recommend Papagayo Fishing Charters to anyone coming to the area.

We went out on March 20th - Tuna Fish 32ft and had a great time. The first mate was awesome and everyone on the boat reeled in at least 1 Mahi Mahi. The Captain knew just where to go and expertly steered the boat while spotting our fish. We enjoyed fresh ceviche for dinner and talked of the experience all night long.
