Private 4-Hour Fishing Trip in Cozumel for Up to Eight

The experience was excellent; they were attentive from the organisation onwards. The big difference from other tours I've done in Mexico is that Darwin's team, captain Mike and Richard weren't there to sell us anything but really to look after us and give us a good experience. Everything was clean, the food light and good, and they constantly offered us drinks. The captain drove properly, as in other places. It was all perfect.

Had a killer day with Emilio and Jose! Super-skilled and pleasant. Jose was a knowledgeable and patient guide. He knew exactly where to direct our attention to see the sea animals. We saw eagle rays, sharks, star fish, sea turtles, and numerous kinds of fish, all whilst Jose took pictures of us with his Go Pro. The photo package add-on was decently-priced. The boat was clean and organized. Had a comfortable, fun and safe day!

Boat Intrepid was great! Captain Miguel and crew Leonardo and Fernanda took great care of us. The food was fresh and tasty as well. The boat was solid and secure with enough power for to haul all the guests. They took us to a few snorkel spots and a beach stop where they made fresh ceviche. Hope to visit with them again in the future. One thing to keep in mind is that they don't have flippers onboard, so if you prefer swimming with those and have them, bring it along.

Fishing in Cancún and Cozumel: what is included and what the boat costs

Four hours of private fishing are $780 for the whole boat with Kianah's SportFishing in Cancún and 15,880 MXN, about $790, in Cozumel — one price for up to six guests, the other for up to eight. Both are per boat, so the useful number is per head: from six anglers the Cancún charter undercuts a shared seat, and the small print differs more than the price does.

Four years to board a boat on Cozumel, ten to snorkel in Cancún, three to sit in a speedboat, ten for a first dive, five for a parasail flight on one island and ten on the other: every threshold six operators print, with the supervision they require, the child rates and the three places where one page argues with itself.
