    An unforgettable fishing adventure with Captain Henry!

    Half Day Fishing Excursion on June 23, 2026 • 2 adults

    My wife and I had an absolutely amazing time fishing with Captain Henry in Tamarindo! From the moment we got on the boat, we could tell we were in great hands. Captain Henry was incredibly friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable — you can really see how experienced he is and how much he knows about fishing and the area. What made the trip even more exciting was that we caught a sailfish just 5 minutes after arriving at the fishing spot! It was such an incredible moment and something we will never forget. Even though the ocean was quite rough and the waves were strong on the way out, Captain Henry stayed calm, confident, and in control the entire time, which made us feel safe and comfortable. It was definitely a little scary at moments, but also part of the adventure — and we absolutely loved the experience! This trip was one of the highlights of our time in Tamarindo, and it gave my wife and me such a fun and unforgettable memory together. If you’re thinking about booking a fishing trip in Tamarindo, we highly recommend going with Captain Henry. You won’t regret it!

    Thank you Henry !

    Half Day Fishing Excursion on February 2, 2026 • 4 adults

    Henry was amazing from the very beginning. Despite difficult conditions — it was extremely windy — he did everything he could to make sure we had a great time. We only caught one fish, but given how unfavorable the conditions were, we were still very happy to have landed that catch. Afterward, Henry took us near a beach so we could enjoy the shoreline and do a bit of snorkeling. He prepared sashimi with the tuna we caught earlier, along with fresh pineapple and various refreshments. It was such a nice touch and allowed us to enjoy the experience even more. We did have a small payment issue due to a miscommunication on the app, but Henry was very understanding and flexible. Sorry again for the inconvenience, and thank you for everything, Henry! Pura Vida 🌴🐟

    Great Day of Fishing!

    Half Day Fishing on July 16, 2026 • 2 adults

    Henry was a great captain, he listened to us and was trying to get us hooked up on fish all day. We eventually hooked up on a nice yellowfin tuna & got to have it for lunch. I 10/10 recommend him and when I eventually come back to CR I will be booking him again!

    Half Day Fishing Excursion on December 31, 2025 • 2 adults

    Great day on the water with Henry, very knowledgeable and helpful. Caught some nice Skip Jacks and Mac Tuna. Hooked up twice on monster fish ( of skip Jack bait), but fish broke the line both times (must have been a big one).

    What a GREAT Day!

    Half Day Fishing Excursion on May 1, 2026 • 2 adults

    Henry works his tail off and puts you on the fish! He’s a human fish finder, no fancy equipment or sonar….just a lifetime of knowledge. Don’t hesitate booking a day with Henry.

    Yellowfin Tuna Paradise

    Snorkel Tour -3-4 beaches on October 11, 2025 • 2 adults

    My girlfriend and I had a great time going out on the water with Captain Henry. We originally wanted to do fishing + snorkeling, but the weather didn’t cooperate (heavy storms overnight = murky water), so we just stuck to fishing. We hooked up pretty quickly - Captain Henry knew exactly where to go to catch some nice tuna. We caught a total of 13 fish over 4 hrs, including 9 yellowfin tuna, 3 skipjack tuna, and 1 rainbow runner. My arms got tired after reeling in fish after fish. We also saw some cool wildlife including sea turtles, dolphins, and sea snakes. Overall was a great experience, Captain Henry is a funny guy with a good attitude. Would highly recommend!
