Curious what kind of fish you can catch while sportfishing in Costa Rica? Check out our Costa Rica Fish Identification chart.
Why is it that Costa Rica Sportfishing is so popular?

That is an easy answer if you don't already know. We offer one of the largest assortments of fish to choose from in the world. From small mountain lakes, streams, and rivers, all the way down to the Pacific and Caribbean Coast. Don't take us wrong, the United States, Canada, and South America all have great fishing also, but they don't have the perfect weather and low wind conditions that Costa Rica offers its fishermen.
Tarpon Fishing on the Colorado River (Rio Colorado)

If it's Tarpon you're after you might want to take a look at the Caribbean side of the country at a place called Barra del Colorado. It is the home to some excellent areas for these very large silver fish. Costa Rica Tarpon fishing is second to nothing on the planet according to some sport fishing fans.

How about 1/2 day trip for $200? Maybe you have something more in mind for the family and need a week on the water. Now we are talking a really good time.

There's a challenge for sure that awaits everyone on these types of trips.

You will start your morning out from one of Costa Rica's 5 Star world class resorts. The marina alone is an experience that can only be matched by some of the hottest fishing on the Pacific.
