Super professional crew that works really hard to keep the lines tight I’m sure not everyone is always successful but I was amazed at how many large sail fish we caught the crew didn’t lose any. Great lunch clean boat super organized. And most important of all the air conditioner was awesome for a family event you got to be able to duck inside and cool down occasionally. You can find newer more expensive boats in the harbor but it’s not worth the extra money this is the one to get. Thank you!!!!!

My Wife and I visited Quepos a second time, this time on our honeymoon. Both times we did an offshore fishing excursion. The first fishing trip in 2019 was also with Carribsea and was such a fantastic experience, we decided to re-book them for our most recent trip. Just like before, the boat was great, the crew was amazing and the fishing was some of the best we have ever had only short of our last trip with them. We started out on Tuna and everytime we got a fish on the boat, another one would hook up. We took in the biggest Tuna I personally have ever caught. We spent some time bottom fishing just to rest our arms a bit before trolling out for sailfish. Even though it isn't really the best time of year for fishing, we still were able to hook up a sail. We would highly recommed Carribsea, both boats and both crews are well worth it if you plan on fishing.

I was a little nervous because we were going out with 9 guys out that all traveled down from Florida, but I wanted to make sure everyone got a fish and it happened! Brought 9 sails to the boat and another 4 got off the line. It was a perfect day. The boat is very nice and spacious. Crew was nice. The AC also kicks which is great when a break from the sun is needed! I noticed Caribsea had the most sailfish on the board for the previous day and I think we got the most at the marina the day we went out. They exceeded all of my expectations. Perfect experience. Book with these guys!!!

We spent the day fishing on "Sunny 1 ". A small boat but we caught fish and had a good day non the less. The Captain was friendly and accommodating. We tipped 35% of the Charter fee to the first and 2nd mates. Unfortunately the first mate, William was brutish and dismissive and since while fishing, we actually spend most of our time on deck with the first/second mates, it was a bit off putting. In addition, the first mate filmed ( with the boats camera) our catch and overall high points of the excursion. He assured us that he would send us the link to obtain the pictures and never did as promised. Next day I visited the doc and left word requesting that he forward us the link and still no reply from William or the Captain. Our pictures' of the day, apparently gone now! This boat is a little less expensive that most but I would consider looking at another charter. It would be money well spent.

Captain Brian and the Mates, William and Marlow are great! We caught Blue Marlin, Striped Marlin, Yellow Fin Tuna, and three Sailfish at the same time. Everyone works hard to make sure it is an exciting fishing experience. They provide drinks, adult beverages, and a very tasty lunch! We booked four days with the Sunny 1 Team and are already talking about planning a trip to come back and fish with them again.

Had an AMAZING first fishing trip to Costa Rica! The fishing was unbelievable. I caught my first sailfish (10 feet long). We caught several Sailfish, Mahi-Mahi and Tunas all in one day. The crew was very nice and loved teaching you all about fishing and things to do in Costa Rica. I've fish in many different areas and this crew was top notch. They really knew what they were doing. The water was very calm, so this is a great activity for all ages. The boat was awesome! too! The main cabin has air conditioning, which is a must have when you're out on the water all day.

Fishing with the Sunny 1 has been far beyond anything we ever expected! Captain Brian, mates William and Marlow are off the chain fisherman and are a hard working crew determined to ensure your fishing experience is above and beyond all your expectations. Two Marlins, three sails and a beautiful yellowfin tuna on our first trip. Second trip was two crazy large Bull Mahi, a blue marlin and a sailfish. We are already planning our next trip! Much thanks and appreciation to the crew of the SUNNY ONE!

The whole experience was amazing ! Captain Brian and the mates William and Marlo went above and beyond to make our fishing trip on the Sunny 1 a perfect day . We caught two bull Dorado , one huge sail fish and a big blue marlin . We saw any least a thousand spinner dolphin. If you are staying at Los Suenos resort in Costa Rica you should book a day on the Sunny 1 !!

Capt Pepsi and First Mate Gilberto were awesome. The first weren’t biting due to the weather but these two guys did everything they could to make sure our experience was top notch. Would highly recommend caribsea sport fishing for your next Costa Rican fishing trip

Had a great experience with the CaribeSea on March 26 with Jacob, Kenneth and Alex. Headed off shore and about an hour in started to see birds and Spinner Dolphins. Started jigging for tuna and quickly caught a few in the 15-20 pound range, one in the 50-60 lb range that we lost at the boat, 7 in total. Hooked a nice sailfish too! Then headed out looking for sailfish the rest of the trip. Ended up bringing 6 more to the boat. What a day! Had a delicious homecooked meal made by Alex to top off the experience. Kenneth was easy to communicate with and always willing to answer any questions we had. The one negative we had was that the A/C stopped working over the course of our trip. It was VERY hot on board and very little air moving even with the bow windows open. All in all a very successful trip that I would recommend to anyone looking to go offshore fishing in Quepos.

Hey Folks, I will be in Quepos from 2/11/19 through 2/15/19. Looking to split a charter with a couple of anglers. Let me know, Gino
Written January 18, 2019
Hey Gino,
Thanks for the message. At this time, we don't have any split charter request for your dates. However, I will make a note and if someone else expresses interest and your dates overlap, we would love to have you aboard. We do have the 14th available, if you would like to book a private charter and not worry about finding another shared party.
