Overview

We offer water, sodas, beer, fresh seasonal fruit and homemade guacamole to enjoy right on the boat!

After your tour, feel free to relax on the beach in a hammock and use our kayaks and paddle boards. Our area of beach is right alongside Hotel 40 Cañones. You can also spend some time at the Barba Negra beach club for some food and drinks.

Our family business focuses on sustainability and experiences that provide a lasting impression. We work hard to make sure our guests feel comfortable while creating a connection with the natural world. We also have over 50 years of experience in Mahahual!

We use Penn fishing equipment and skirted ballyhoo to visit the areas with the highest probabilities for a great catch. We also use semi-professional snorkeling equipment to make sure guests are comfortable while snorkeling, which is crucial for a memorable experience.

Our experiences are provided in Spanish and in English in order to always provide clear, smooth communication.

What to expect

Are you interested in a blend of what a day in Mahahual has to offer? Join us for a Caribbean fishing and ECO snorkeling experience here in Mahahual Costa Maya!

We’ll begin the trip at our booth in front of Hotel 40 Cañones, where we’ll board one of our 25ft pangas. Our fishing charter offers three hours of coastal trolling and/or bottom fishing (at depths of 60 to 120 meters). Trolling catches may include barracuda, spanish mackerel, jacks and, if we get lucky, wahoo, mahi, kingfish and billfish. While bottom fishing we may catch different types of snapper, including “huachinango” or red snapper, amberjacks, or caribbean reef sharks. When children are part of the group, we can shift our focus to smaller catches in shallower areas with casting equipment when requested.

After fishing, we will enjoy one hour of snorkeling among the local flora and fauna of the Great Mesoamerican Reef, right here in Mahahual Costa Maya. The area is populated with many Caribbean fish and coral species (French and Gray angelfish, Damselfish, Bluehead and Yellowhead wrasse, Stoplight parrotfish, Grunts, Puffers and more). If we’re lucky, we may even see a spotted eagle ray or green sea turtles.
