Good to know

Fishing license

A Costa Rican fishing license is required and is not included in the charter price. Your captain will take you to purchase one on the morning of your trip — $17 per person, cash only. You can also order online in advance; we’ll send the link when you book.

What to bring

Sunscreen, a hat, and polarized sunglasses. Cash for your fishing license and for the crew. A light rain layer between May and November. If you’re prone to seasickness, take something the night before rather than the morning of — it works better that way.
