For anglers looking to experience world-class fishing in Cozumel, Sea Candy offers private offshore charters designed for guests who want top-tier action for Mahi-Mahi, Wahoo, Blackfin Tuna, Barracuda, and seasonal White and Blue Marlin. Captain Manny Pool has been fishing his entire life and comes from a proud family of lifelong fishermen. With more than 25 years of experience running boats and competing in tournaments, Manny is known for his expertise, hospitality, and ability to guide both first-timers and seasoned offshore anglers.

Trips are private and customizable, with 4, 6, and 8-hour options. Shorter trips keep you close to productive local waters, while longer trips open the door to deeper offshore routes toward Punta Sur on the south side, Punta Molas on the north side, and even toward Playa del Carmen. Tuna fishing is one of Captain Manny’s specialties thanks to the rich offshore currents around the island. One of his most memorable days on the water came when he located a large school of big Tuna and guests landed multiple fish in quick succession — a story he still loves to tell.

Sea Candy is a custom 22’ Prowler powered by twin Yanmar engines with a cruising speed of 28 knots. She accommodates up to 12 guests and is equipped with GPS/fish finder, radio, and an onboard toilet for comfort. All fishing trips include premium rods, bait, and tackle along with drinks such as cola, beer, and water. For 8-hour trips, guests are treated to ceviche and sandwiches as well. Manny is accommodating with all skill levels and families often choose this charter because kids and beginners are welcomed.

Guests may also choose to combine their experience with snorkeling. Cozumel is known for crystal-clear visibility, vibrant marine life, and safe shallow reefs ideal for children and new snorkelers. Snorkeling trips are available as 4 or 6-hour private outings, and Manny can even arrange hotel pick-ups for convenience.

Peak season for offshore species runs April through June, but fishing remains productive the rest of the year. From July through March, guests can still target Tuna and other pelagics, making this a solid year-round fishery. A $200 deposit is required to confirm a trip, and if canceled within 48 hours the deposit is forfeited.

If you’re looking for a private fishing experience that blends local wisdom, tournament-level expertise, and family-friendly hospitality, Captain Manny Pool and Sea Candy deliver one of Cozumel’s standout charter experiences.
