Capitan Duran and crew are a pura tico enterprise, in the best sense.  I caught a 60+ lb sailfish, a 5 foot mahi mahi, and a small mahi mahi.  We caught snappers also.  Upon his suggestion I had postponed the trip one day and it turned out perfect: clouds breaking up the sun, light cool breeze, calm water.  Only one or two other fishing boats.  You may be able to pay for better accommodations, but will you have more fun?

Great experience **hidden content** way beyond our expectations! Guide was great and good vibes the whole time. We caught HUGE fish- Mahi mahi & tuna. Saw 150+ dolphins, sharks, sea turtles. We took our fish to a local restaurant he recommended and it was the BEST FISH we ever had! Thank you sooo much! Pura vida!

Could not ask for better captain and crew great experience and beautiful day! 10/10 great value would go again!

Eliare and Anthony were a perfect captain to mate fishing was very slow that day but I do a lot of all shore fishing and sometimes it happens. It was not for lack of work from the Captain. They change Bates every 20 minutes and did all they could. They even stayed out an extra 30 minutes and tried to catch me a fish they were great .

My hubby & I had an amazing fishing trip yesterday with Capt Elier & his mate, Anthony! They were very experienced & helpful, trustworthy & friendly. Never stopped looking for fish until the very end. We kept 5 mahi which we grilled last night for our family. Yummy!!!
