Fishing takes place aboard a 25-foot authentic Mexican Panga, comfortably outfitted for up to four guests. The boat comes equipped with downriggers and all necessary gear to ensure a smooth and enjoyable day on the water. Rods, reels, tackle, and lures are all provided, with live bait available at an additional charge.
Families are warmly welcomed, and children are encouraged to participate in the fun. Before setting out, be sure to obtain a local fishing license—this can often be arranged online or with assistance from your captain. Keep in mind that some fish species may be protected or require special permits, so it’s wise to review local regulations beforehand.
To fully enjoy your day, bring along sunglasses, non-aerosol sunscreen, and bottled water. Complimentary beverages, lunch, and light snacks are included. While moderate alcohol consumption is permitted, please avoid hard liquor and glass containers.
Your adventure begins promptly at 7 a.m. with departure from Loreto’s Downtown Marina. After gathering live bait, the boat will head out into the sea in search of the day’s best catches.
