Review of Cabo’s private eight-hour fishing trip, with boat, bait, licenses, lunch, drinks, scenic stops, value, and practical cautions.

“We took my oldest son, who just graduated high school, on this all day fishing tour, thinking that he was gonna have a blast because he loves to fish. I read the reviews and majority of them had an awesome time. It was very disappointing to hear my son and my husband story when they got off the boat. It’s not a cheap tour and when I booked it for them as a graduation present, it said food and drinks included, but they didn’t tell my husband or my son anything about food and drinks, they didn’t touch any food because they didn’t know what was for them. They didn’t…”

2.Pacifictime Sports Fishing in Cabos san lucas

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 197 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $799Top rated

Review Pacifictime Sports Fishing in Cabo San Lucas, with pricing, catch details, boat notes, extra costs, timing, and booking advice.

“What an amazing fishing trip! The crew was great and helped my boys get into some pretty big fish. This is NOT a trip where you are casting out your pole yourself. They are trolling big line and driving the entire time to catch large fish. We did ask if we could stop and let the boys cast out with some jigs and they were more than happy to set that up for them. I would highly recommend Paolo, his crew and his boat! Again it was an amazing experience and will use Pacific Time when we come back next year!”

“Diego & Jorge were awesome! Local guys - 3rd generation fisherman. Met us at pier , & walked n talked with us to his boat. His boat was just a basic fishing boat with a cover for shade they provided a cooler with bottled water and cokes and beer. The captain and his assistant took care of all our set up for a successful day! They bait your hook and everything while driving you out between the pier and Isla Mujeres. Be careful of motion sickness sometimes the ocean can be a bit rough one of us got a little sick so we ended our trip before the six hours.…”

Had I taken some motion sickness medication I would have been fine. The captain (Felix) and his first mate were amazing. we requested a partial refuned and were granted such. This is a great company to work with for that very reason”

Review of Cancun’s private 48-foot fishing charter, with marlin, sailfish, tuna, and dorado, plus costs, boat details, and practical tips.

“This was an awful experience. I have tried to forget it because it was the worst fishing trip I have ever been on. I was told we would catch big fish or my money back. We took home no fish. It is the only trip I've been on with no fish. I was told it would be 4 foot waves. The waves were 8 to 10 feet and the port was closed, but they took us out any way. I had told them I get sea sick and they assured me the waves were small and lied to me. They give us NO life jackets to wear. It was the…”

8.Local Fishing Plus Snorkeling Tour in Isla Mujeres

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 57 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $408

Fish Isla Mujeres waters, then snorkel a quiet reef with a private guide, included gear, family-friendly fun, and strong value for up to five.

“We had an amazing time with Island Adventures on the private snorkeling and fishing tour. Snorkeling near a quiet reef with no other boats around was incredible, and our guide Juan pointed out so many fish and even a stingray. He also walked me through how to bait the hook during the fishing portion, which was fun to learn. Theo, our captain, kept everything smooth and relaxed from start to finish. The water in Isla Mujeres is bluer than any pool I’ve ever seen, and with calm seas and sunny skies, it was the perfect day. Highly recommend!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 38 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $428

Review of Costa Maya’s private four-hour fishing charter, with boat details, catches, weather policies, cruise tips, price value, and booking advice.

“The day of our excursion, the weather was not great. After arriving via taxi from the RC port, we were met quickly by our guides. They explained that the weather conditions made the trip unsafe. We were sad for sure, but they quickly and easily refunded the price of the excursion. They also took the time to connect us with Alex who walked us down to a beach area where we were able to still have a great afternoon in Costa Maya!! I am very thankful to have worked with this group and would not hesitate to do so when we return!! Thank you!!”

Review of Cabo San Lucas private deep-sea fishing: boat details, costs, catch odds, crew, timing, licenses, and who should book.

“You're risking your life if you get on this boat!! The diesel exhaust fumes made us sick! This was NOT the boat pictured! There were NO life preservers, NO radio, NO fishing equipment except for 6 fishing poles and 2 plastic chairs on the back of the boat! Although Capitan Ronny and his mates kept 5 rods in the water the only chance to catch a fish was when they saw a Marlin fin above the surface! We did hook a shark but it got off when I was handed the pole. We saw Marlin, Tuna and plenty of other fish on other boats when we got back to the…”

13.Half Day Private Fishing Charter in Cozumel

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 30 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $899

Review of Cozumel’s private four-hour fishing charter, with fishing, snorkeling options, boat amenities, pricing, value, and practical tips.

“Just got off and had a good time! Husband went snorkeling and loved it. Kids and I stayed on boat but loved the beautiful blue water, coral and fish- we could see everything. Fishing was disappointing. My kids enjoy fishing and it’s not the typical “fishing” we are use to - there was no control and not mich to do- which I loved but the kids love the thrill of “doing it.” Guacamole was awesome. Drinks were ok- bring your own as no beer and little variety.”
