I would do it again - More than excellent, enjoy the beauty of nature by boat, for fishing it takes a little to take you the idea but now you can enjoy (Important to ask the instructor to help you fish to feel the technique), Cape Catoche incredible, a small place where we could buy some drinks and where we ate the aguachile, Ronnie a great and warm guide, 100% recommended

Great day out - Well organised and captain was lovely. Saw lots of wildlife and snorkelling was awesome - saw big manta rays. Cabo Catoche has a beautiful beach - couple of beers at the bar and ceviche made with the fish we caught. Loved the captain’s music. Special thanks for letting us go even though I turned up a day early!

Great tour with stellar guide - The fishing was a blast but the highlight was definitely the stop at the gorgeous Cabo Caboche, where we had a white sand beach to ourselves and a moment to enjoy it. The ceviche and fried fish tht we enjoyed there from what we had caught was also delicious. Lastly, our guide Alex was amazing! He was super knowledgable and switched seamlessly between Spanish and English so that our whole group could understand. Highly recommend his tour! We were not able to snorkel because the visibility was low, so we went into the mangroves instead. Not as ideal, but it was still a cool stop and we made the most of it.

Spectacular - The best way to learn to fish, I agree with the comments, the best ceviche in Mexico. Without a doubt, the only tour worth taking, yes or yes.

Glad we booked this!! - We had a great time meeting other travelers and being out in the water. The trip out to snorkel spot was choppy and I have a bad neck so it was rough but that's just incidental to being at sea in a small boat. The captain navigated as well as he could have. The fishing is by hand line and different but it was enjoyable, husband caught two!! The visibility was poor at the snorkel spot so I didn't snorkel up but swimming felt great. The ceviche was really good!! We even spotted flamingos on the way back 🦩

Have a nice boat day - Pleasant boat day, fun and prolific fishing, nice snorkeling although a little basic and quick, fishing tasting on a heavenly and deserted beach (out of season). Be careful though, the boat can be unpleasant for your back if there is swell. Overall a great experience for less than €100 per person, unbeatable for a boat day.

Traditional fishing, remote island time, and the freshest ceviche you’ve had - The guys welcomed us with an overview of our trip (spoken in Spanish); they both knew some English, but without some knowledge of Spanish, we would have been lost. Our fishing was fun, with a great mix of surprise (related to the fish) and tradition (literally using your hands as the rod and reel). The snorkeling could vary a lot in quality/quantity from day to day, but we had a lackluster experience, with pretty cloudy water and little/nothing to see. Cabo Catoche, an island inhabited by six people, was magical, with a bar to serve up yummy bebidas. Also, the ceviche made by the guys, presumably from the fish we caught, was the freshest we’d ever eaten. Additionally, they paused for some bird sightings, including flamingos, on our way back to the dock. We recommend this, but if you snorkel frequently, don’t expect much.
