The bottom is mostly volcanic and the average maximum depth is 70 – 80 feet. Visibility, currents and conditions in general tend to change every day.

Fishing from Tamarindo is the perfect base for Costa Rica’s world class sport fishing. With the continental shelf a mere 10 miles offshore, blue water species, including blue, black, and striped marlin, pacific sailfish, dorado, yellow fin tuna, wahoo, fall within a short run of all of our captains. Right inside Tamarindo Bay are parked a variety of boats for every sports fishing option.

Also choose between half-day or full-day, inshore or offshore fishing Tamarindo truthfully boasts a 12-month fishing season, with certain months excelling for different fish. Here is a breakdown of the fish that can be caught:
Sailfish: Caught throughout the year, with May through August normally the top season. They may begin to thin out in September and the slowest months are from late August through November.
Marlin: Caught every month of the year, with mid-November to early March exceptional, then slowing a bit from April into early June when it picks up again, peaking in August and September.
Rooster fish: This fabulous species is caught all year, although there are more caught in the Papagayo Bay area from November through March. That may be because more boats in the northernmost area of this region are fishing inshore during those windy months.
Wahoo: The Guanacaste fishing first catches are about the time the rains start in May, peaking in July and August. Most are caught around the rocky points and islands, but you will pick one up occasionally fishing offshore.
Tuna: Guanacaste fishing tuna peak months are probably August through October, but when all else fails, there are always tuna, anytime of the year you want to look for them, and more often than not when you’d just as soon avoid them to concentrate on bill fish. The yellow fin and some Big eye tuna are often found well inside the Catalina Islands, 30 minutes or less running time from the beach.
Dolphin or Dorado: These colorful fish are most abundant from late May through October when the seasonal rains flood the rivers, carrying out debris that form trash lines close inshore that they like to lie under. Troll past a floating log and you’ll likely hook a Dorado.
