$400–$1,500
$400-1500 per person

The real cost of yacht charter in Cabo is $400-1500 per person. Here's how to get the best value without overpaying.

Most charters include all gear, bait, tackle, and drinks. The captain and crew handle everything — you just need to show up. Tipping the crew 15-20% is standard and appreciated.

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: check the actual boat, not just the operator's website photos.
