When you go deep-sea fishing in Costa Rica you can expect to catch Marlin, Sailfish, Snapper, Wahoo, Tarpon, Snook, and many more. There is no way you can spend a day out on the sea and not catch something exotic and large. The deep-sea fishing boats are large enough so everyone has enough room to fish from any location on the boat they choose without feeling cramped by other anglers. Generally, these types of deep-sea charters only take out a maximum of 10 people at a time so everyone can enjoy this excursion.

It is a good idea to have your fishing trip chartered because there are many different hot spots throughout the area of Costa Rica and your fishing guide will know them and help make sure you catch something amazing during your fishing adventure. As beginner anglers, they can teach you how to cast your line, set up your lures, and reel in those big game fish that are constantly putting up a fight.
