Your boat. Your fishing day.
A better way to choose your charter.
The right boat starts with the people coming aboard and the trip you have in mind. A smaller group may prefer a compact fishing boat, while other guests prioritize space and comfort for a longer day.
This page brings the Los Sueños boat options together so you can compare the practical details before you inquire. Tell us whether your priority is inshore fishing, offshore waters or a relaxed first fishing trip.

Prices and passenger counts come from the current boat listings. Request a quote to confirm availability, taxes, inclusions, extra-passenger charges and each boat’s approved capacity. Departure point is confirmed separately for each boat.
Bringing more than six guests? Ask about larger-group options rather than assuming an extra-person fee allows more passengers on every boat.

Questions about
your charter?
Send us your preferred date and boat. We’ll help with the details you need to decide.
Are these private fishing charters?
Yes. The boat is for your group only. Include every guest in your passenger count, whether they plan to fish or just enjoy the ride.
Which boat is best for my group?
Start with capacity, then compare trip length, budget and amenities. Boat length alone doesn’t set passenger capacity or guarantee specific facilities.
Can I book the boat at the price shown?
These are published listing rates. Contact us to confirm the current rate and availability for your date, along with taxes, inclusions and any extra charges.
Do all boats leave from Los Sueños Marina?
No. Some boats board from Herradura Bay. We’ll confirm the departure point with your boat recommendation.
Can non-fishing guests or beginners join?
Yes. Share the ages, experience and needs of everyone coming and we’ll help you choose a suitable trip. All guests count toward the boat’s capacity.
How do I request availability?
