Costa Rica Fishing

Where the World Comes to Fish™

Crocodile Bay boasts the largest professional sport fishing team in Central America with in-house captains and mates able to cater to all skill levels. At the helm stands Todd Staley, Director of Fishing, expert fisherman, writer and conservationist. Todd and his crew are dedicated to providing education and training to make your Costa Rica fishing trip the experience of a lifetime. Offshore, inshore, and now all-new kayak and shore fishing excursions are available, each uniquely challenging and equally rewarding. Are you ready to strap in and reel in a yellowfin tuna that can reach up to 300 lbs? Do you think you have what it takes to beat the roosterfish resort record at 106 lbs? The upwelling caused by the offshore winds to the north and south moves bait fish into the area and leaves a flat ocean with one of the highest concentrations of sailfish in the world. What are you waiting for?

Costa Rica and Central America’s Largest Private Fleet

Our fleet of Boston Whalers and Strike Yachts is easily accessed from our 800-foot private pier and includes 24’ center consoles, 27’ offshore center consoles and our 33’ and 35′ tower boats. Crocodile Bay Resort offers world-class catch and release bill fishing in the Pacific Ocean for sailfish, striped, blue and black marlin, dorado, tuna and wahoo.

Fishing in Costa Rica’s Golfo Dulce (Sweet Gulf) for roosterfish, cubera snapper, jack crevalle, bluefin trevally, sierra mackerel, tripletail, and grouper is excellent throughout the year.
