Fishing Charters in Cancun

Yes. All our Cancun charters have instant booking: pick your boat, trip and date, pay a 25% deposit online and your charter is confirmed instantly. The remaining balance is paid at the marina on the day of your trip.

The balance is paid directly to the captain at the marina on your trip day. Cash in USD or MXN has no extra charge; credit and debit cards carry a 5% processing fee.

Prices are per private boat, not per person. A 4-hour half-day trip starts around $380 USD, 5–6 hour fishing and snorkeling combos run $445–$765 USD, and 8-hour full-day or 3-in-1 trips go from $580 to $865 USD depending on boat size.

Our boats range from 24 ft (up to 4 guests) and 29 ft (up to 6 guests) to 34 ft (up to 8 guests). Every charter is 100% private, so the price covers your whole group.

Private boat with captain and crew, rods, reels and tackle, lures, live bait, fishing license, drinks (beer, soft drinks and water — quantity depends on trip length) and cleaning and filleting of your catch. Fresh ceviche is included on 8-hour trips.

A mandatory dock fee of $8 USD per person, paid at the marina; transportation to the marina; optional box lunches ($15 USD); and gratuities for the crew. Extra beer and on-board ceviche can be added when you book.

4 hours is ideal for reef fishing and first-timers. 5–6 hours lets you combine fishing with reef snorkeling or head farther out. 8 hours is best for offshore species like sailfish, mahi-mahi and tuna, or for the 3-in-1 tour: fishing, snorkeling and a stop at Isla Mujeres.

An 8-hour private trip that combines sport fishing, snorkeling on the reef and a stop at Isla Mujeres — the most complete option for families and groups who want more than fishing.

No experience needed. Cancun captains are patient instructors who will show you the basics on board. Experienced anglers are equally welcome — longer offshore trips offer more advanced techniques and bigger game.

Yes. Our charters are private and family-friendly. For young children we recommend 4–5 hour trips or fishing and snorkeling combos in the calmer reef waters near Cancun.

Yes. The crew cleans and fillets your catch and packs it so you can take it home or to a restaurant near the marina to have it cooked. Billfish (sailfish, marlin) are typically released per conservation protocol.

Reef fishing targets the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef 1–5 miles offshore in calm, shallow water — great for snapper, grouper, and barracuda. Deep sea fishing heads 20+ miles out to the Cancun Bank for billfish, tuna, and mahi-mahi in open ocean.

Sailfish peak from March to June, when warm Caribbean currents concentrate them near the Cancun Bank, though they are caught year-round. Mahi-mahi are abundant from May to September and tuna in summer.

We recommend booking as early as possible, especially in high season. Depending on the boat, you can book with as little as 10–24 hours of notice if the date is still available.

Cancel 72 hours or more before your trip and your deposit is refunded minus a 10% administrative fee. Cancellations made less than 72 hours before departure are not refundable.

Safety comes first. If conditions are unsafe, the captain will suggest rescheduling at no extra charge. In the event of cancellation due to weather, we offer a full rescheduling or refund.
