Your trip includes high-quality snorkel gear for all ages, professional fishing rods and tackle, and fresh snacks or meals prepared on our onboard grill.

Is snorkeling included in private boat charters in Playa Flamingo?
Yes, snorkeling is a core part of our private boat charters in Playa Flamingo. We provide professional-grade snorkeling equipment for adults and children, and we take you to secluded volcanic reefs and hidden coves where the water is clear and teeming with tropical fish and sea turtles.
What is the best time of year to fish in Playa Flamingo?
Fishing in Playa Flamingo is excellent year-round, but your targets may change with the seasons. The dry season (December to April) is the best time for Sailfish, while the "green season" (May to November) often brings high numbers of Yellowfin Tuna and Dorado (Mahi-Mahi). Nearshore species like Roosterfish and Cubera Snapper are available throughout the year.
Do I need to bring my own fishing gear for an Aqua Vida Sailing trip?
You do not need to bring any equipment at all. Aqua Vida Sailing provides top-tier professional fishing gear, reels, rods, and a variety of lures and bait. Whether you are a seasoned angler or a beginner, our crew handles the setup so you can focus on the catch.
Is cleaning and filleting included in the fishing trip?
Absolutely. Professional fish cleaning and catch preparation are included in your charter. If you land a keeper, our crew will expertly fillet your catch and bag it for you to take to a local restaurant in Playa Flamingo, where they can cook it fresh for your dinner.
Are Aqua Vida Sailing charters family-friendly for young children?
Yes, we specialize in family-friendly trips. Our 38-foot Gemini catamaran is stable and spacious, providing plenty of shade and safety for children. From easy-to-use snorkeling gear to helping kids reel in their first tropical fish, we ensure guests of all ages have a memorable and safe experience on the water.
How much does a private sunset cruise or fishing charter cost in Playa Flamingo?
Pricing for our private charters depends on the duration of the trip and the size of your group. Because we offer custom boat tours, we provide competitive rates that include all gear, food, and drinks. Please contact us directly for a personalized quote for your specific date and group size.
What should I bring on my Playa Flamingo boat charter?
While we provide almost everything, we recommend that guests bring towels, eco-friendly sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, and a camera. If you are prone to motion sickness, we suggest taking a preventative remedy before departing the marina to ensure you stay comfortable throughout your adventure.
Where do we meet for our Aqua Vida Sailing departure?
Our trips conveniently depart from the Flamingo Marina in Playa Flamingo, Guanacaste. Once your booking is confirmed, we will provide you with specific instructions on where to meet our crew and Captain Craig at the docks so we can get your private excursion started on time.
