Ensures the customer is safe and well informed while maintaining a fun environment! Would recommend to all skill levels and ages !Posted on Google louis lacapere4 May 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ryan is an amazing fishing guide. If you let him know the fish you want to catch he will do everything in his power to help you to catch them. The fishing gear and setup was great and his knowledge of fishing techniques was super helpful, so much so that we were already hooked on the second cast! The area is very pretty and his fishing spots are very close to Playa Mantas so you can start fishing right away. I strongly advise you to go on an early morning with him!Posted on Google Christopher Burley16 March 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

This trip was incredible. Ryan was fantastic and very knowledgeable on the area. We went right to one of his spot and started hammering the fish. This was my first time kayak fishing in the ocean, and with his help, quickly caught on to the correct tactics. I was not real sure what to expect and to my suprise, caught two dandy fish before 7 in the morning. Highly recommened Ryan and I will be back to do it all over again, except next time, I will book a few different mornings with him. The coconuts and mango were on point as the sun started beating down on us. Thanks for everything Ryan!! Tight lines!!Posted on Google Jakob Österman3 February 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was a great day! It’s not every day you get to be guided by a member of the US national kayak fishing team who is a true expert at his craft. Ryan knows what he is doing and he is a good teacher. We caught a bunch of large Jacks and an eel. Need to come back for a rooster thought :)Posted on Google Bob3 February 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Posted on Airbnb Oxana27 April 2025Verified I had an incredible time on this kayak fishing tour! Rayan was knowledgeable, friendly, and put me right on the fish. The thrill of battling a powerful roosterfish from a kayak is something.I also landed a hard-fighting jack crevalle. Rayan made sure I had a safe and successful trip. Whether you're an experienced angler or new to kayak fishing, I highly recommend this tour.
