Great Mother-Son Time!
I took my 14-year-old son on his first deep-sea fishing trip, and it was a memorable experience! If you’re expecting a large, luxury fishing charter, this probably isn’t the trip for you. It was by far the smallest fishing boat I’ve ever been on, but honestly, that didn’t matter to us. One thing to be aware of is the meetup process at the dock. While it’s fairly straightforward, there are many people around who will approach you offering to help you find your boat or trying to sell additional trips, often expecting a tip in return. It’s best to politely decline these offers and wait until you connect with the actual crew you’re booked with. Captain Felipe worked hard to get us on fish, and we caught several throughout the trip. We had a great time on the water, and it was a fun first ocean fishing experience for my son. A couple things to know before you book: because the boat is small, you’ll get splashed quite a bit, and it can feel chilly, so I’d definitely recommend wearing extra layers. Also, while Captain Felipe was friendly and knowledgeable, there were times when it was difficult to understand his instructions. At one point, I think we may have lost a marlin simply because we weren’t sure what he wanted us to do. Overall, I’d recommend this company if you’re looking for an authentic, laid-back fishing experience rather than a fancy, high-end charter. We had fun, caught fish, and I made great memories with my son.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. We truly appreciate your honest feedback, and we’re especially happy to hear that your son’s first deep-sea fishing experience was such a memorable one. Knowing that you were able to make great memories together means a lot to us. We’re glad Captain Felipe was able to put you on the fish and provide an authentic day on the water. We also appreciate your comments about the meeting process at the marina and the communication during the trip. Your feedback is valuable, and we’ll continue working to make the experience even smoother for our guests. Thank you again for choosing to fish with us. It was a pleasure having you and your son on board, and we hope to welcome you back to Los Cabos for another adventure in the future. Hopefully, next time we’ll land that marlin!

Great solo experience if you want to fish in Cabo!
This was a great experience for my son! We celebrated his 23rd birthday in Cabo and he wanted to fish, but the rest of us don’t fish, so he went solo, just him & the captain! He caught some good fish!! The half day was perfect because he still got to do other activities with the family!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re honored you chose to celebrate your son’s 23rd birthday with us. We’re thrilled he had a great time fishing and caught some nice fish. It means a lot to hear that the half-day trip was the perfect fit for your family’s plans. We hope to welcome him back for another adventure in Cabo soon! 🎣

Amazing Charter with Captain Neil and Carlos
My first fishing charter was an unforgettable experience thanks to Captain Neil and Carlos! From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone on board had a great time. This was my first charter and every fish I caught was a Personal Best from all the fishing in my life. The fishing was incredible—I ended up catching 12 fish total, including 5 skipjack, 1 needlefish, 2 roosterfish, and 4 mahi-mahi. I even hooked another fish that was stolen by a seal, which made for a pretty memorable story! As someone new to charter fishing, I really appreciated how patient and helpful they were throughout the trip. They took the time to provide guidance, kept us on the fish, and created a fun and exciting atmosphere the entire day. If you're considering a fishing charter, I highly recommend Captain Neil and Carlos. They helped make my first charter experience a huge success, and I can't wait to book another trip with them in the future!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure having you on board. We’re thrilled that your first charter was such a memorable experience and that you landed so many personal best fish. The seal stealing your catch definitely gave us all a story to remember! We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to fishing with you again on your next trip to Los Cabos. Tight lines and see you soon!

Outstanding sport fishing charter.
This was the greatest fishing experiences I’ve ever had. I’ve been on several other fishing charters in Cabo but I actually caught some fish on this one. I caught on Marlin and a Wahoo. The captain was very knowledgeable about the water. We were catching fish immediately. I’m definitely booking this fishing trip again
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear this was the best fishing experience you’ve had in Cabo. Congratulations on catching both a Marlin and a Wahoo, that’s an incredible day on the water! Our captain will be very happy to hear your kind words. We truly appreciate your support and can’t wait to welcome you back for another great fishing adventure in Los Cabos.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Half-Day Sport Fishing in Los Cabos: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Los Cabos.
How much does Private Half-Day Sport Fishing in Los Cabos cost?
+
Prices start at $245 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Los Cabos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Half-Day Sport Fishing in Los Cabos take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Los Cabos is not rushed.
Is Private Half-Day Sport Fishing in Los Cabos worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 89 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Los Cabos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Half-Day Sport Fishing in Los Cabos?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Half-Day Sport Fishing in Los Cabos suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Half-Day Sport Fishing in Los Cabos?
+
Around 31 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Los Cabos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Los Cabos and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Half-Day Sport Fishing in Los Cabos start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Los Cabos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Los Cabos?
+
On Outty we rank every Los Cabos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cabo 4x4 ATV Tour with Tequila Tasting and Mexican Buffet Lunch, Ziplining and UTV Desert Adventure from Los Cabos, Cabo Beach Camel Ride, Mexican Buffet and Tequila Tasting. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Los Cabos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Los Cabos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
