Our second visit to Yelapa and our second time of using Okley Activities for our fishing experiences(it would be rude not to)!! Fernando is such a wonderful host and he and his crew work so hard to make your experiences "the best". We decided on Friday to go fishing one more time. This one will be hard to beat and... More

I don't know if there'll be enough typing space for me to talk about the wonderful things Kendra and Fernando did for us while visiting Yelapa. Kendra went well beyond anything I would expect in helping us to organize our holiday. She knew that we were planning to go on a boating excursion with Okley but she extended herself well... More

Yelapa is a wonderful Honeymoon place. Romantic quiet destination. We did not expect that it would be so fabulous. Kendra and Fernando were great hosts, during our 10 day stay in February. We are both Northern Guys. The weather was perfect for our stay. We have found our piece of Paradise in Yelapa. Never went so far south. Enjoyed everything... More

Fernando took us on his boat early in the morning. He was really laid-back and flexible about the schedule. He prepared the whole fishing and snorkeling equipment. We were with an 11 year old boy, and Fernando made us feel safe and comfortable in the boat. He sped up at some point, which amused the kid a lot (Fernando knew... More

We went down to Yelapa for a much needed getaway with our three kids. During our time there we had the opportunity to head out with Fernando and Rodolfo for two fishing trips and a trip to the Marietta Islands. Everyone was very patient with my daughter (10) and my twin boys(7) for all the trips. On the island trip... More

My partner and I recently visited Yelapa, Mexico, and had a wonderful time all around. One highlight was a trip to the fishing village of Chimo (45 min boat ride from Yelapa) w/ hosts Fernando and his brother Rudolfo (Okley Activities). En-route we spotted a traveling pack of 5 giant whales and we followed them for a while. Hearing the... More

This boat excursion was a true highlight of our trip. Getting out on the water with Fernando and Rudolfo is a special treat as they are very experienced; I felt safe and secure the sntire time, not to mention they are simply lovely people to be around. We saw whales on our way to Chimo, which was a major highlight... More

My husband had one goal for our trip to Mexico - he wanted to catch a TUNA. When he spoke to Captain Fernando he was assured that he was in good hands. The boat took off as planned in the morning and, as promised, they came home with a great big tuna and also a big jack. We dined on... More

First, let me state that Fernando, who has received rave reviews on TripAdvisor, is no longer giving tours (at least that’s what he told us). He has opened a new restaurant, and his brother Rodolfo is leading the excursions. We weren’t told about this switch until we arrived in Yelapa and checked into Fernando’s casa. Two weeks before our trip,... More

Thank you very much for your comments. We appreciate your feedback. I think a great deal of this boils down to miscommunication and I'm terribly sorry about this. Fernando does still lead tours (he took a fishing trip out this morning). He and his brother both lead Okley tours; it is a joint business. Sometimes they even get to go... More

. Thanks so much Fernando for the boat trip. We learned so much about the area. Catching a fish was great and the ceviche you made was so yummy. More
