Capitan Pablo's Fishing Tours in Sayulita, Mexico

I made arrangements for a fishing charter months in advance of our stay. I thought we had confirmed our plans, but when our travel dates came, I was unable to reach anyone regarding our reservations despite multiple attempts. I understand things happen, but I expect more from business owners. There are so many reputable fishing charters in Sayulita, I recommend trying a different one.

Me and 3 friends went fishing with Captain Pablo and had a great time. The captain and his son were really knowledgeable about the area, and tried their best to answer all of our questions. Since we don't fish often, we were worried about not catching anything, but they took us to various spots when one was too busy, or the fish weren't biting in the others. We also took a brief side trip to check out some whales and dolphins, which was an added extra.
When we got back to shore, they cleaned the fish (free) and cooked them for us at Captain Pablo's restaurant (70 peso per person) which was a great end to the day. Would definitely recommend.

My boyfriend and I have used their services 5 times and each time is so much flippin fun. I don't fish, just go for the beautiful boat ride. You are missing out if you don't get on a boat to check out the ocean and hopefully catch some whale action like we did. The Captain and crew are so nice. I can't say enough how much I dig this business. Can't wait until next year!

I took my fiancé on the sunset trip for his 40th birthday. It was just the two of us, plus Hector & Lalo, the crew. Everything was perfect. Hector & Lalo were fun, informative and have a true love for the sea and fishing. We even stopped for snorkeling. We were out for 2 hours but could have easily stayed longer. On our way back to shore, we watched the sunset. A beautiful end to a wonderful experience. Ask for Patty at Captain Pablo’s on the beach and she will give you all the information you need to book the perfect trip. I can not recommend this place enough!

We signed up for a snorkel tour and got soooo much more!!
Patty was wonderful to work with, she took our names and email and put us together with a few other people, to keep our cost reasonable. The day of, we took the boat along the shore and were able to see the lovely beaches and the beautiful big homes and resorts. The location of our snorkelling was impressive!! We saw so many colourful fish and a tremendous variety. We even saw a huge mantaray, 3-4' from tip to tip, of it's wings. Stunning, so graceful to watch.
Our guide Arturo and driver, Hector, were personable, friendly people and were very knowledgable about the area and the fish we were seeing. Arturo, snorkelled with us and taught my 17 year old son how to use the sling spear. He speared a fish and both he and Arturo were rather excited with his accomplishment. Later that night, Arturo filleted the fish and Captain Pablo's restaurant cooked it for our dinner.
On our way back, we slowly trolled and cast a line. Arturo taught me how to correctly use the rod. Good fun. We also spotted a few humpback whales, so majestic! Hector followed them, with a respectful distance, so we saw them surface 4 separate times. So beautiful to see!!
We booked a snorkelling trip and go so much more out of our day with Arturo, Hector and the wonderful others on the boat. Many thanks to Patty for making it so easy to create such a memorable experience.

Captain Pablo,WOW! What an amazing adventure and group. My wife and I spent a number of days in Sayulita and had to try some fly fishing. We found Captain Pablo and walked over to their shop to book an adventure. worked directly with Patty who set us up for the following morning. We arrived a bit late, sorry, and they promptly took us out on the sea. We spent all morning trying our best to catch fish with a fly. Nothing. The captain and crew would throw a line in and pull up all kinds of fish. We really suck but thats ok. We had so much fun on the water and practicing that it made the rip worth it. They even took the fish we caught a cooked it for us. The crew was so nice they told everyone in the restaurat that it was "our" fish however we couldnt take credit. They did the work. We tried and brought in nothing lol.

What a great organization!!!

We booked two separate trips on short notice. Captain Pablo Fishing made it happen. They were very responsive and receptive to our group and the type of fishing we wanted to do. The guides tried hard and we were rewarded with a great catch. The second day was also great. We were able to find some Dorado on the fly! I would use Captain Pablo again and recommend them to others.

Patty was easy to work with and made the whole experience easy. Williams was our Captain and Lalo was our guide...both were knowledgeable and very hard working with great humor. I will request them by name when I come back. And I will be back. I went out a second day after a very enjoyable first day. Caught a large (and fight-worthy) Jack and some Spanish Mackerel. Lalo filleted the Mackerel and Pablo's cooked them for us. Some fo the best fish tacos I ever had. You cannot go wrong with this outfit.

We went fishing and whale watching with Captain Pablo on Jan 3 and had a great experience from start to finish. Patty was very responsive and helpful with planning information and our captains were also great out on the water. We saw multiple whales up close and had good luck catching a Mahi Mahi, numerous Spanish Mackerel and a big Jack fish. Back on land, their restaurant cooked us up the freshest ceviche and fish lunch you can have, and we had plenty left over for later that night. Overall, great experience and we’d definitely recommend and do it again. Thanks!

I took my boys fishing with Captain Pablo's crew, and we had a great time. We caught fish, saw, dolphins, and enjoyed both rain and sun. The crew were helpful, professional, and kind. We also rented boogie boards from Captain Pablo, and they were willing to flexible with us about drop off and rental hours. I highly recommend Captain Pablo!
