BEST SPORTFISHING CHARTER IN LORETO BAJA CALIFORNIA SUR
FISHING CHARTERS FROM LORETO B.C.S.
Welcome to Loreto's best sport fishing charter company. Loreto Baja California Sur is an excellent place for sport fishing. You can fish year-round for resident species such as Snapper, Grouper and even Yellowtail. The summer is a great time to target migratory species such as Marlin, Dorado, and Rooster Fish. Never a dull moment. Our fleet of fishing pangas can accommodate groups large and small.
Fantastic Fishing All Year
We have a resident population of yellowtail, and the largest ones that make it to the boats can run up to 40plus pounds. The summer season is super exciting, with colorful big fish flying out of the water(and many landing in a frying pan)! Year-round fish include the bottom fish: Pargo (snapper), Cabrilla(sea bass), Pinto bass, Yellowtail, Amberjack, Whitefish, etc. In the summer months, we enjoy fishing for; Dorado, Striped and blue marlin, Sailfish, Roosterfish, Sierra, and occasionally, Wahoo and Yellowfin tuna.
Be Sure To Bring
Sunscreen, Sunglasses, Sarong or Towel, extra snacks, Camera, batteries, and warm layers in the winter and Spring months.
Frequently Asked Questions
Short answer “Yes”. Long answer, if the fishing is often better to the North of town, we’ll suggest meeting in Loreto and can assist with transportation to the Marina.
In order to catch the big guys, we need bait first. The optimal time to catch bait is early in the morning as dawn is breaking. Yes its early, but just remember, it will make that afternoon siesta that much better!
As someone who gets their Christmas cards at Easter I would say “No”. The safest way to get your fish home is to fly back with it. You can come down with a cooler or buy one while you are here. We’ll freeze it for you and pack it up, ready to fly home.
Yes! Tipping (in cash not fish) is a standard practice and very much appreciated.

Family Fishing tours
GET THEM HOOKED!! This trip doesn’t go out very far, and the goal is not to catch something that will drag your child overboard (or maybe it is?). Instead, the purpose of this trip is to make kids happy and hopefully catch dinner. We leave at 9:00 am from the Loreto Marina. From there we head for Isla Coronado to see the sea lions, look for dolphins and visit the white sandy beaches. Along the way, we stop at a few different fishing spots and fish for bottom fish or troll for rockfish. This excellent introduction to fishing will definitely “hook “ the whole family.

“Thanks no tanks!”. It’s true that spear fishing is not allowed with the Loreto National Marine Park. That’s fine with us because we love to dive with Snappers and Cabrillas as well as fish for them.
