How to pick. The 9 inshore boats take 3 to 4 anglers, and the lowest price is the 23ft Panga at $498 for a half day. The 8 mid-size sportfishers take 4 to 6 anglers; the 6 in Cabo San Lucas run $879 to $1,444 for a half day. The 17 premium sportfishers take 6 to 10 anglers. The largest boat in the fishing fleet is the 60ft Hatteras at 60 ft, taking up to 10 anglers.

Per-angler math. Charter pricing is flat regardless of headcount, so a boat gets cheaper per head the more people you bring, right up to its angler limit. Split the 23ft Panga at $498 across 3 anglers and it is about $166 each for a half day. Each boat page shows its angler limit.

Always included. A professional captain and crew come with every boat.

Also included on every boat. Premium rods, reels and tackle, one Mexican fishing license, dock and marina fees, ice and bottled water, fresh or live bait when available, and all taxes.

Never included: the tip. 15 to 20 percent is standard in Cabo.

Tax. Nothing is added at checkout. The rates on this page already have all taxes, dock and marina fees, tackle, ice, bait when available and one Mexican fishing licence inside.

Our sport fishing charters leave from two marinas in Los Cabos: 23 boats from Cabo San Lucas and 11 from San José del Cabo.

The Cabo San Lucas boats sell a half day or a full day.

The San José del Cabo boats leave from Marina Puerto Los Cabos and run one trip of 6-7 hours at one price, from $600 to $2,200. That marina is closer to the Gordo Banks, about 15 miles offshore from San José. See the San José del Cabo boats.

Offshore charters in Cabo San Lucas go after billfish and tuna, and offshore days usually run on boats of 32 ft and up, on a full day.

Big game fishing has a calendar. Striped marlin peak from November to May. Blue marlin, the trophy fish, run from June to December, and 300 to 800 lb is common. Sailfish run from June to December too, and yellowfin tuna from May to November.

21 of our 34 boats are 32 ft or longer, and 17 of them are premium sportfishers. The premium boats start at $1,121 for a half day and $1,308 for a full day. See the deep-sea boats or the marlin charters.

Payment. Trips over $500 take a $500 reservation deposit at checkout, with the balance settled before your trip. Anything at or below $500 is paid in full at booking. No IVA is added · these rates are already all-in.

Cancellation. More than 72 hours before your trip: 75% refund. From 48 to 72 hours before: 50% refund. Under 48 hours, a no-show, arriving late, seasickness or heading back early: no refund. If the port is closed, or the captain or tour team cancels for weather or safety, we move you to a new date. If no new date works for you, you get a full refund. Light rain or choppy water that the captain calls safe is not a cancellation.

What to bring. Reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, polarized sunglasses, a light layer, whatever you take for motion sickness, and snacks. Ice and bottled water are on the boat.

Three ways to start. Browse the 34-boat fishing fleet and book online, message us on WhatsApp, or tell our concierge your dates, group size and target fish.
