Bob Marlin Sport Fishing offers a high-quality charter experience out of Playa Herradura, one of Costa Rica’s most productive fishing destinations. With a captain who grew up along the Costa Rican coast, every trip reflects true local insight and a deep connection to the water. Guests step aboard a comfortable 35’ boat outfitted with trusted gear, shaded seating, and a bilingual crew focused on providing a smooth, enjoyable day from start to finish.
The waters off Playa Herradura are known for consistent action throughout the year. Strong currents and a rich offshore ecosystem attract marlin, sailfish, tuna, mahi, and roosterfish, giving anglers a wide range of opportunities no matter the season. The crew uses their experience and awareness of local patterns to position you in the most productive areas, making each trip feel rewarding and well-paced.
Trip options include full-day, half-day, and VIP island tours for up to six guests. Full-day offshore trips give you time to explore deeper waters, while half-day excursions offer a flexible choice for families or travelers wanting a focused outing. The VIP island tour combines fishing with scenic coastline views, calm anchor spots, and a relaxed tropical atmosphere that many guests consider the highlight of their visit.
Peak season brings high demand when marlin, sailfish, and mahi are especially active, paired with calm seas and steady tourism. Shoulder seasons, however, offer outstanding tuna fishing and fewer boats on the water, creating an excellent setting for guests looking for a more peaceful and personalized experience.
Service is where Bob Marlin Sport Fishing truly stands out. The team handles the details so you can enjoy the day, ask questions, learn techniques, and soak in the surroundings. With clear communication, reliable equipment, and a friendly approach, the crew creates an atmosphere that keeps guests returning year after year.
Whether you’re planning your first offshore trip or returning to Costa Rica to explore new waters, Bob Marlin Sport Fishing delivers a dependable and memorable experience built on skill, hospitality, and lifelong passion for the ocean.
