Catch the Big One in Cabo! All-Inclusive Fishing Experience
Imagine spending an entire day on the water in Cabo San Lucas, chasing after the region’s renowned big fish, with everything taken care of for you. This all-inclusive fishing tour offers a private, personalized experience that caters to both seasoned anglers and those eager to try their luck at catching something memorable. For $500 per person, you get about five hours of cruising, fishing, and relaxing, with transportation, licenses, bait, beer, and lunch included (though COVID-19 guidelines might alter the lunch offering). It’s a setup designed for convenience, comfort, and a real shot at landing your dream fish.
What makes this tour stand out are a couple of key features. First, the private nature means your group can enjoy the day uninterrupted, with a crew dedicated to your experience alone. Second, the fleet of boats—ranging from cozy 26-foot cabins to larger 38-foot cruisers—ensures the right size vessel for your group, whether you’re a pair or a full crew. A casual, flexible approach paired with knowledgeable guides makes this a top choice for anyone wanting a personalized fishing outing.
One potential consideration is the lunch policy. Due to new guidelines, lunch may no longer be provided, so bringing your own snacks or meals might be necessary. Also, the tour is usually booked about a month in advance—so planning ahead is wise if you want to secure your preferred date.
This experience is especially well-suited for travelers who value authentic, hassle-free fishing with expert support. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just want to enjoy Cabo’s waters with friends, this tour offers a perfect blend of comfort, adventure, and local expertise.

Setting Off from the Marina
You’ll meet early in the morning at D Dock, Marina in Cabo San Lucas, ideally around 7:00 am. The convenience of pickup options means we found that transportation is generally arranged or available nearby, so you won’t have to worry about how to get there. Once aboard, you’re greeted by your seasoned crew, who will go over safety and fishing protocols.
The boat chosen for your trip depends on your group size, with options from a cozy 26-foot cabin cruiser for a small party to a 38-foot vessel capable of accommodating up to ten anglers. This flexibility is great because it means your private experience can be tailored not just to your fishing ambitions but also to comfort and space.
The Journey and the Fishing
After departure, you’ll cruise out into Cabo’s famed waters, where the chance of hooking a sizable fish is high—whether it’s marlin, tuna, or dorado. The crew’s knowledgeable guides use their local expertise to find the best fishing spots, and reviews confirm they’re great at getting you on the fish. As David_E mentioned, “Alonso the captain was super cool and got us on the fish!!” Good guides make all the difference, especially when you’re in unfamiliar waters.
The tour includes all fishing equipment, licenses, bait, and cold beer—the last being a nice touch after a few hours fighting a fish. Expect a laid-back atmosphere, with plenty of time to focus on the thrill of the catch, whether it’s your first time or you’re a seasoned angler.
What About Food and Drinks?
While the package generally includes lunch, recent guidelines due to COVID-19 might mean you need to bring your own snacks or food. The beer provision remains consistent, which adds to the relaxed, fun vibe aboard. We appreciate this because it gives you the flexibility to choose what you eat and drink, and it can help keep costs low.
