Package Details

Day One

Fly into Liberia, Costa Rica where we will meet you and take you to your waiting private transfer. We’ll take you to the popular town of Tamarindo, located less than 1.5 hrs from the LIR Airport. Home to some of the best nightlife, local restaurants, and shopping you’ll be sure to enjoy the local culture in Tamarindo. You’ll stay at the beachfront Capitan Suizo, which is located at the southern end of Tamarindo so you’ll have the luxury of feeling secluded if you want to or take a short stroll on the beach into town.
Day Two

Take this day to relax and explore Tamarindo. Enjoy the beach directly in front of your hotel or walk into town to check out the local restaurants, ice cream parlors, and shopping.
Day Three

Let’s go fishing! Walk from your hotel directly to the beach and board your sport fishing boat moored off-shore. You’ll spend today fishing off-shore for marlin, sailfish, dorado, wahoo, and yellow-fin tuna on your private sport fishing boat and our legendary local captain.
Day Four

Enjoy a different kind of adventure today as you head inland to the Rincon de la Vieja National Park. Your combo tour will include the canopy zip-line, tubing down a jungle river, fresh local lunch, horseback riding, and a soak in the thermal hot springs. This will be a true highlight of your trip!
Day Five

Let’s go fishing! Head back off-shore for another day of fishing for pelagic species like billfish, dorado, tuna, and wahoo. Keep your eyes open for floating debris or trash lines where dorado love to hide or watch out for huge schools of spinner dolphins that tend to hide yellow-fin tuna below.
Day Six

Let’s go fishing! This is your last day of fishing so we’ll show you something different today and bring you in-shore to try your hand at snapper, grouper, jacks, and the trophy roosterfish. Or if you want to fight with true heavyweights we can go bottom fishing for snapper, grouper, and amberjacks.
Day Seven

This is your last day in Costa Rica – relax and enjoy it before heading back to the real world!
Day Eight

We will pick you up and transfer you to back to the LIR Airport for your international flight home.
