Here’s our fishing report for November at Los Sueños Resort and Marina, Playa Herradura, Costa Rica:
Offshore Fishing
November marks the start of the prime billfish season, with excellent opportunities to catch sailfish and marlin as they become more abundant in the area. Blue marlin is particularly active; some striped and black marlin may also be encountered. Mahi-mahi (dorado) fishing peaks during this time, with larger schools appearing thanks to floating debris brought by seasonal rains. Yellowfin tuna, especially near pods of spinner dolphins, remains a consistent target for anglers. Dream Maker reported that they had released Sailfish and a couple of Marlin, 30 Tunas and some Dorado
Inshore Fishing
Anglers can expect a productive inshore fishing experience closer to the coast. November is a great month for targeting roosterfish, a prized species known for its fight. Other species, such as snapper and grouper, can be found near rocky outcrops and reefs, offering opportunities for bottom fishing. Dream Maker reported some Rooster, Snapper, and rabbit fish.
General Notes
The Los Sueños Marina is renowned for its world-class facilities and experienced captains. November’s transition into the dry season often brings calmer seas and pleasant weather, perfect for novice and experienced anglers. Charter options range from half-day inshore trips to full-day offshore expeditions.
If you’re planning a trip, book your fishing charters early, as this is a popular time for anglers worldwide. Don’t forget to explore the marina’s amenities and local dining options after a day on the water.
