$400–$1,500
$400-1500 per person

Here's what yacht charter actually costs in Cabo: $400-1500 per person. The range is real — cheapest isn't worst, priciest isn't best.

Pangas (small open boats) start cheaper and work great for inshore fishing. Bigger sport fishers with cabins are better for full-day offshore trips. Private charters give you the run of the boat.

Cabo sits where the Pacific meets the Sea of Cortez, making it one of the top sport fishing destinations on the planet. Marlin, tuna, dorado, wahoo, and roosterfish are all in play depending on the season.

Pro tip from locals: book direct with operators - saves 15-25 percent.
