Fish Mexico's Marlin MadnessMarlin Magazine has ranked Mexico's Yucatan peninsula one of its Top 20 Billfishing Destinations, both for the light tackle fishing and the variety of species. For this reason hundreds of fishermen converge on the Yucatan each spring. Cozumel offers great open water fishing opportunities as well as Cancun. Both have numerous marinas and all the perks needed for those fun-loving sports fishermen who travel from Texas, Florida and the East coast of the United States. For those serious fishermen who do not need the discos and large restaurants of Cancun and Cozumel, Puerto Aventuras is the place to be. By mid April all slips are full and the party has begun. Located about 60 miles south of Cancun, Puerto Aventuras has the only full service harbor south of Cancun. The Dorado, Tuna and Marlin run thick just 200 meters from the shore here. Mexico Means Marlin (and other billfish too)You can expect to see tons of Atlantic sailfish with good numbers of white marlin mixed in from late March through June or even July. The prime months are April and May. The area of the Yucatan is similar to Venezuela's in its reliable production of billfish grand slams (one each of sailfish, white marlin, blue marlin). In addition to the good runs of sailfish and white marlin in the spring, blue marlin make a good showing from late April through June. Sail down and hook-up or fly into Cancun . There are numerous charter fishing boats available with salty captains who know these waters well. Contact the experienced captains of Puerto Aventuras Fishing or Tequila Sunrise to find the best places to go any time of the year. What is swimmin' in them thar waters?Sailfish, white and blue marlin, slammer dolphins, blackfin, skipjack,
yellowfin tuna, kingfish and wahoo are abundant in the waters near Puerto
Aventuras, depending on the time of year. Atlantic sailfish migrate from
late March to June or July. White marlin in May. June for blue marlin.
Dorado (mahi mahi), snapper, tuna, kingfish and wahoo can be caught year
round. Non migratory sailfish live close by throughout the year. Occasionally
we see broadbill swordfish or spearfish. Most of the billfish are average
size, but world records are set nearly every year so come try your luck!
