Sportfishing at Puerto Vallarta
When you arrive to our location you will be expected. One of our fleet managers will find and greet you and take care of any balances due and make sure you have everything you need to go fishing. They will ask about your fishing goals and don’t be shy about being honest with what you are looking for (an easy day inshore or a hardcore..get me the biggest fish on the planet kinda day). You will be introduced to the crew as you board.
You might need to purchase a fishing license and wait in line to purchase it. This service is provided by the Mexican authorities and we are not involved in the process. Many times, because most charters leave around the same time, there can be a longer than usual wait. To avoid this, ask us about purchasing your license in advance.
Our start times are approximate. Every morning we have people show up early and some show up late. We understand, this might be your first time in Puerto Vallarta, you might get lost, you might have had 1 too many cervezas the night before, no big deal you are on vacation after all. However, we help people as they arrive, we do our very best to get everyone out as close to the time they requested as possible. Most of the time we are very efficient, but if you are the type of person who likes things to be perfectly timed, let us know, show up a little early and we will do our very best, I promise!
You may also want to get something to eat and drink before heading out, there are convenience stores located near our gate or the captain will take you over to the fuel dock where they sell sandwiches, snacks drinks etc. You are welcomed to bring anything you like with you, the boats have coolers and ice on board. We will wait until you are ready to go, so don’t stress about the start time, we promise the boat won’t leave without you. Crews pack their own lunches amigos, no need to bring them food.
