In late February 2023, we (2) bought spots on a 6-hour shared charter. There ended up being two other people with us. Beginning to end, with dock fees and lunch included, we paid about $400 ($200/each). Very reasonable price.
The lunch is like a good gas station sandwich, small bag of Doritos, and a juice. Just right if you’re feeling kindof lazy and don’t wanna worry about bringing food, but know you’re gonna need a decent snack over the 6 hours you’re out.
Remember two important things: Sun glasses and sunblock. Do the Dramamine thing if you’ve never been out to see. Stay calm. These guys are capable professionals, and they do this every day.
💯 Recommend. Will use this service again. Everyone we interacted with, beginning to end, were professional and capable, friendly and fun.

Great fishing, I have been deep sea fishing numerous times in the Cancun Area and this was by for our most successful outing. Crew was very experienced and VERY hard working. Also very willing to relocate when fish were not being caught. Numerous times where we had (2) fish on at once and the crew was consistently rigging up new lines while we reeled in the fish to assure there were a minimum of 5 lines in the water at ALL times. Loved the experience and will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful experience! My boyfriend loves to fish and he had always wanted to go deep sea fishing. We went with his mother (early 60’s) and his daughter (13). He and I did most of the fishing and we caught 7 large fish. 4 Mahi Mahi, 2 yellow tail snapper, 2 treager fish, 2 barracuda and one huge blue fin tuna!
Our captain was amazing and his mates worked hard to make sure we had a great time.
As our fishing ended and we headed back to the marina, they made us fresh cerviche. It was delicious!
When we returned to the marina the restaurant served us beers and chips and salsa while they cooked some of our catch. Wonderful service. Smart reliable people. A good value.

This was hands down the most unorganized tour I have ever been on. The only reason I gave it a 2 is because the actual fishing trip with Ramon and Jose was enjoyable. According to the itinerary: we were suppose to get our fish filleted then we were to be dropped off at the Coco Beach Club to have it cooked. Absolutely no one (fishermen or hotel that we met at) knew about this, everyone was clueless! We wasted at least 45 min trying to find help, we were getting sent back/forth. Finally, a man was kind enough to call the reservation number from our confirmation printout. The man who answered was not apologetic and told us it was close enough to walk. I was very upset because this was to be included. After 10 min we made it to the beach club and FINALLY they knew why we were there. The "beach club" itself was not impressive...not really a beach at all. My advice is to get a good deal on a fishing trip somewhere and take your fish to whatever restaureant you want because this particular "club" was not impressive. Oh and avoid any business with this company...they will not take care of you.

I am sorry for the confusion. The smaller boats are actually at a different marina, 2 doors down. That is where the Cocos Beach club and restaurant are. We recently had to move the smaller boats over to make room for the bigger boats as some catamarans have moved in and that made everything quite tight. I am sorry that our crew did not walk you there, but when we got the call the person had already left the boat and our crew at the boat with no knowledge they wanted the fish cooked. Hopefully future customers will ask the crew before they leave the dock and we can better assist them. Thank you for fishing and hopefully we will see you again in the future.

We booked a three person fly fishing trip with cancunfishing.com while we were vacationing in Cancun. We were picked up at the hotel and taken to their property where the boats were stored. It looked like a boat graveyard with garbage everywhere and the first impressions were very poor. They had set the boat up with four spin casting rods, no fly fishing. They had forgot this in the SUV. So we waited for it to come back. They came back with two rods, one setup for left and one for right hand use - they were low quality and didn't work great. For some reason the guide had to switch the floating casting line from one reel to the other so we could use the one rod. The boat was well used, the engine ran rough and was hard to start.
The guide said he had 30-years of experience but did not appear to be an expert in fly fishing. This was our first ocean fly fishing trip and he was not very helpful, could not communicate well in English and was very critical of our abilities. His biggest concern was losing a fly or lure. Fishing was a challenge (we caught a few small fish) and he never changed the fly once that day.
Do to high winds we could not fish the salt flats so we went into the mangroves and even bushwhacked with a machete to get through one almost impassable section.
Lunch was poor. It contained a sandwich, water and Coke; loose ham & pieces of cheese and fruit for those with Celiac. Luckily we brought lunch too. Although beer was promised, it was not brought.
This trip was a Christmas gift for my son (age 33) and son in-law (age 32). We were all super excited for this trip. I was very embarrassed and disappointed in entire day.
I would not recommend this company for a fly fishing tour at any price! I am sure there are more professional companies and guides with better equipment. It was far below the standard in comparison to the companies and guides we have used in Alberta and BC.

The website stated a certain price and when i went to check out, it was $100 more. In addition, the website gives you an addition to add transportation for $15. Once we arrived at the docks, they told me it was an additional $90 for transportation.
Once on the boat, the first thing the captain said was if we catch a marlin or sailfish, we can choose to pay $1500 dollars to keep it and have it shipped to our home. They clearly had their opinion on if we were going to pay the $1500 if we caught one to have it shipped. After about 30 minutes of trolling and catching multiple 5-8 bonito, they told us we were going to bottom fish. They trolled for the bonito to use it as bait, then saved their gas from trolling because they didn’t think we would pay the $1500 to have the fish shipped.
We paid for the 34ft “air conditioned cabin” trip. We were out on a 1980’s-1990’s boat which didn’t have an air conditioned cabin. It was 90 degrees plus on the water and my son and i were sitting in the extreme heat.
I would not recommend this company. It was a constant hustle from beginning to end

Hola! Yes, there is a 3rd party transport service available for $15 round trip in the hotel zone. The marinas also charge a docke fee per person which we try to keep updated on site and state in our confirmation we send our customers. I am sorry the a/c was down. It is difficult for us to get parts here lately but we continually try to keep them up and running.

Very positive experience. Good guide. Hooked three tarpon, landed one, on flies, in very challenging windy conditions. I cancelled my second day because of the conditions, and Cancún Fishing refunded my deposit, which they certainly were not obligated to do.

Very happy for the money spent! Finally caught 2 bigger fish after 15 years trying! The economy boat was out of orders so we got a bigger nicer boat (still old and used but more comfortable with restroom) for the same price! Very competent staff and interested in fishing! Thank you!

Had a great time, it was just 2 of us on a private charter, with captain Hector, first mate Paco, and deck hand Tony. Paco is the best, he took great care of us, made sure we had beers when we wanted them, and cooked one of the Barracuda that we caught making us some Fish Tacos, and ceviche. Water was a little rough, but we had a blast.

It was awesome, this is the second year we have booked a fishing trip with y’all and both times have been awesome. The crew was great with my special needs son and they let us help do something’s and not just took over every thing. We caught three amber jacks, one mahi and one tuna. We also had a huge fish but it was so massive that it broke the line. Shout out to the crew on the Zelda boat.

Hi I am coming to Cancun on the 21st October for 2 weeks, I would like to go on a fishing trip on a boat. We are not very experienced fishmen, what trip would you recommend on what would be the cost?
Thanks
Tim
