Skipjack by Amberjack Sport Fishing 

It’s been a long time personal dream to try to catch sailfish and we decided to make a family trip to Costa Rica and booked a couple days fishing while we were there. conditions were tough due to El Niño, super dry, hot and windy , but the captain Julio and first mate Brandon worked really hard to catch fish. Ended up catching four sailfish in all, my son also caught a tuna, and we caught a few other fish such as grouper and snapper. The crew really did a great job and pretty much did everything that we asked for. I’ve been on many different charters and this was by far the most full service one I have been on! Definitely recommend, excellent overall.

This fishing charter with Skipjack by Amberjack Sport Fishing was an absolute highlight of our trip and one we will not forget. We booked a half-day inshore trip and from the start, it felt like we were in great hands. The crew was experienced, adaptable, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. After an initial attempt at catching live bait, they quickly adjusted the plan, got us on skipjack, and turned it into an incredible opportunity. That led to a true bucket list moment. We hooked into a rooster fish that put up an unbelievable fight. The captain coached us through it and managed everything perfectly to make sure we didn’t lose the fish. It was an incredible experience from start to finish. We were able to get photos and safely release it, which made it even better. Beyond the fishing, the entire experience was top notch. The crew was friendly and attentive, providing drinks, snacks, fresh fruit, and even hummus and vegetables. The boat was clean and the perfect size for our family of four, with a shaded area up front that made it comfortable for everyone. The scenery along the Costa Rican coastline was stunning, with massive rock formations rising out of the water. Booking was easy, communication was clear, and everything was exactly as promised. If you are considering a fishing trip in this area, this is the one to book. We would absolutely do it again.

Amber was great to work with on booking, captain julio was great, Jose was awesome. Definitely recommend to anyone. my 3 boys and I had a great time! they have a good contact for transportation also, just dont wait to arange a ride

Amber, at Amberjack Tours, is super easy to deal with and accommodating. Willy was a great boat captain with tons of local knowledge. Three sailfish within the first hour, including an unheard of double, was more than anyone could ask for. If English is important Amberjack Tours is a great option.

Nice crew. Nice equipment. Live bait. Didn't taget tuna or rooster or Jacks. Bottom fished first in very deep water (250+ft) w/ 22 oz sinkers. A tug and then a strenuous 5-7minute reel up (the groupers give up after about 2 seconds) then it's just a chore getting them up. Trawled for the last 90 min. Caught 2 needle fish (about the weakest fighitng fish ever). Boats all around us were on the tuna bite. Nice grouper/tile fish meal after.
