Costa Rica

Take Your Travel Experience Further: The Hosted Trip Difference Unparalleled Service and Knowledge Every Step of the Way Dear Traveler, Rarely do you find a lodge that can put you into great inshore and offshore fishing, provide superior accommodations, excellent cuisine and a level of hospitality that makes you feel right at home. Zancudo Lodge is “the whole enchilada.” It is also the perfect place to take a nonfishing companion to enjoy all that this magnificent country has to offer. Eco tours, wide sandy beaches, incredible sunsets and a fleet of boats and captains that are unmatched; all combine to make Zancudo the ultimate Pacific Coast getaway. We’ll be focusing on a variety of species inshore and offshore, including marlin, sailfish, roosterfish, dorado and tuna. Of course, there are a number of other species as well. Our 5-night / 4-day stay will have us fishing two days on their 32’ Contenders and two days on their custom built 28’ center consoles – all with first class gear.

Sincerely,

Derek Hathazy Costa Rica Program Manager

What to Expect

• Get to blue water quicker than anyone else in Golfito. The Contender has twin Yahama 300 engines powering the way to get you fishing in half of the time than any other boat in the region.

• Zancudo is great for fishing, but also accompanies the whole family’s needs.

While you’re fishing, the rest of the family can relax by the pool or beach, or get more adventurous with paddle boarding, surfing, zip lining, hiking and plenty more.

• The service at the lodge is worldclass. From the time you wake up to the time you go to bed, almost every need can be met by the staff that is working around the clock to make your experience unforgettable.
