Off & Inshore Fishing
World Class Costa Rica Fishing Packages
Located on the Golfo Dulce, one of the deepest gulfs in the world, and minutes from the mouth of the Pacific Ocean, Playa Nicuesa Rainforest Lodge is perfectly located to enjoy both world class off-shore and in-shore (i.e. deep sea) fishing adventures!
Offshore fishing days are spent with the area’s best captains and boats. You will be picked up each morning right at our dock for sportfishing. Fish for Sailfish, Marlin, Dorado and Tuna.
Inshore fishing days are spent on the calm waters of the Golfo Dulce and the area’s rivers. Fish with Playa Nicuesa’s team of local guides that have years of first hand experience fishing all the Gulf’s best spots. We fish on the lodge’s local panga boats – 24 foot boats with 115 horsepower four stroke engines. This is an excellent opportunity to catch a variety of fish including Snapper, Snook, large Jack fish, and with some luck the prized Roosterfish.
