Fishing Day with Local Fishermen in Loreto: Fishing gear included

Cast for marlin and dorado alongside fishermen who've worked these waters for generations.

A full-day fishing activity in Loreto where you fish alongside local captains using their traditional methods and equipment. Summer brings dorado, marlin and sailfish ideal for fly fishing. Winter features yellow tail and deep-water species. The outing includes fishing gear, bottled water, snacks and ice, with a guide in English or Spanish.

The experience

Loreto's reputation rests on its fishing, and this day puts you on the water with the captains who built it. You'll cast for whatever the season holds: summer means dorado and marlin species (black marlin, Atlantic blue marlin, striped marlin) and sailfish, which take fly fishing well. Winter shifts to yellow tail and other species that hold deep in the sea rocks. The local fishermen bring the knowledge of generations to the work, and you practice what they do every day.

The outing runs seven hours and covers the marine life Loreto holds year-round. Fishing gear comes with you, along with bottled water, snacks and ice to keep the catch. A guide speaks English or Spanish throughout the day. Public transportation options are available nearby if you need them to reach the departure point.
