Fishing · ISLA HOLBOX FISHING TRIPS
Every trip has one spare morning. These 4 isla holbox fishing trips justify it, priced and timed so you can decide over breakfast and still make the boat.
Spend about six hours with a private crew from VIP Holbox Experience, traveling to Cabo Catoche for fishing, shallow-water snorkeling, dolphin watching, a beach walk, and fresh ceviche. Captain Pablo, David, Gorge, and Willy are among the crew names associated with this experience.
“Safe, fun, and the very best ceviche you’ll ever eat. Thank you Gorge and Willy for a wonderful day.”
Meet your captain at VIP Holbox Experience, fish private local spots by hand line, and learn to make Holbox-style ceviche with your catch. Captains Eddie, Willie, and Rojo have led memorable outings, though fishing time and boat space can vary. The tour includes gear, drinks, ceviche, and guacamole.
“The fishing trip was great for the most part. There were two couples and the captain and we caught LOTS of fish. The 13-gallon pail was so full, the last few fish caught kept jumping out of the pail onto the floor of the boat. Afterward the captain took us to a secluded beach to explore while he made fresh ceviche. The only problem we had is the captain did not offer us any fish to take with us. It was ackward to ask when we were leaving because the fish were nowhere in sight. He had transported to a different cooler. When I went back an hour or so…”
Spend about four hours fishing around Holbox with a private captain and local guide. Learn traditional techniques for corvina, grouper, snapper, blonde, chac chi, and mojarra, then prepare ceviche from the catch. Pickup is available at your Holbox reception, and dolphins may appear along the way.
“Gran experiencia con una muy buena compañía no esperes pescar peces muy grandes pero si pasar un buen rato”
Head 20 to 30 miles offshore from Holbox with a private captain and crew, trolling for tuna, dorado, marlin, barracuda, snapper, and amberjack. Andres, Josmar, and Jonny have guided successful trips, with music on board and fresh ceviche made from the catch.
“We had a great day of fishing with our captain Andres and guide Josmar. We were out longer than we expected and they went to several spots to try to get us on fish. We caught 16 fish in total! Dorodo, Snapper and Amber Jack. The boat had Bluetooth speakers so you can play your own music, but make sure to download a playlist ahead of time as you won’t have service out at sea. At the end of the day, our crew made us a delicious ceviche and surprised our friend with a birthday candle in a cupcake. It was awesome!”
Pick a coast, a lake, or a hole in the ice.
