Escape to the jewel of Central America for a mid-summer getaway packed with at-sea thrills and unparalleled natural beauty. The world-class Los Sueños Marina is the ultimate departure point for a premium fishing charter on the Pacific, and this July is proving to be an exceptional time to be on the water.

The Bite is On: Your Mid-July Catch List

While some may talk about a "slowdown" after the spring season, seasoned anglers know that July in Los Sueños offers some of the best variety and action of the year. This month is a phenomenal time to target a colorful array of hard-fighting species, both inshore and offshore.

The hunt for big meat fish is excellent right now. In addition to a consistent bite from **Dorado (Mahi-Mahi)** and **Cubera Snapper**, we are seeing impressive **Grouper** being pulled from the rocky reefs using bottom fishing techniques. These brutes offer both a challenge and a fantastic dinner.

Hold tight to your rods! The inshore action for **Roosterfish** remains world-class, providing a thrilling fight for those seeking a catch-and-release trophy. Offshore, the **Yellowfin Tuna** are schooling up and putting on a powerful show. While Roosters are for the photo, Tuna are for the table—our crews can prepare fresh sashimi right on board.

We’re also seeing a strong showing of billfish. This is a prime month for **Blue Marlin**, and our experienced captains know to target them around the flotsam washed out to sea by the green season rains. Baitfish like small Tuna and Bonitos congregate near this debris, drawing in the majestic Marlins you've been dreaming of.

July Weather & Conditions in Jaco, Costa Rica

As is typical for mid-July in the "green season," you can expect a beautiful mix of tropical weather. Mornings are generally bright and sunny with calm seas, creating perfect conditions for heading offshore. Daytime temperatures average in the mid to upper 80s (°F), cooled by a steady ocean breeze that feels like paradise aboard your charter.

Expect scattered rain showers to develop later in the afternoon. These tropical rains are what keep the coastline so lush and vibrant, and they rarely disrupt a full day of fishing as our charters depart early to take advantage of the prime morning bite.

Choosing Your Charter: What Size Boat to Book in July?

With all the casting, reeling, and wrestling on board, you'll need some elbow room. Carefully consider what size boat is right for you and your fishing party.

For smaller groups of up to four people, a boat of at least 25 feet provides comfort and maneuverability. Our popular Shamrock Express is a excellent options for those who want an affordable, action-packed day of Costa Rica fishing.

For seasoned sportfishers, a bigger boat allows more room for advanced techniques. A vessel like the 38' Custom Sportfisher holds up to six anglers and uses state-of-the-art technology to find the fish.

Looking for a world-class experience for a larger group? Luxury charter boats like the 50' Maverick or the 52' Hatteras offer space for up to eight anglers. These air-conditioned yachts with luxurious amenities guarantee your time on and off the reel is unforgettable.

Whatever your party size, our charters provide the tournament-grade gear, an experienced captain and crew, and a home base at Los Sueños Marina—the best location in the world for year-round sportfishing. Book your adventure today!
