What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Coco, Guanacaste for the first time?

Over priced and not very friendly. We went fishing the next day with a guy (the annoying ones that try selling you everything under the sun) from the beach at our resort for $1200 less for the exact same boat and actually caught fish and they cut it on the boat and made ceviche! Save your money and find a guy on the beach!! I figured paying more would get us a better experience but oh was I wrong!

We saw many schools busting on the surface. Weather was great. We were not successful, so I can't relate if the fishing is good or not. As they say, "Fishing is not necessarily catching". The day was fun, the scenery was beautiful. The captain and crew were great. The boat was clean and reliable.

Book with seastar all the guys are very professional and absolutely great friendly people who went above and beyond to please us with not just the fishing but catering and great conversation . I shall be booking with these guys next year as they made me want to visit Costa Rica again as soon as I can

Una opción es seguir las indicaciones del capitán sobre cuál es el plan de pesca más adecuado. En mayo puede ser más recomendable un Roosterfish.

Just get out there and give it a shot. It’s a great spot to fish if not the best and this crew will put you on fish!

For the money, a full day offshore trip gives you the best opportunity to target several species without feeling rushed.

Communicate with your captain what fish you want to target. Make sure the boat/weather lines up with what you want to do.
