Southern Coast of Costa Rica

Costa Rica, considered the "Switzerland of the Americas", is a safe and peaceful country, and the premier destination for sportfishing and eco-travel in Central America. Mar Huron Sportfishing is based in Puerto Jimenez, on the Osa Peninsula, considered the 'last frontier' of the country and by far one of the most exotic, adventurous jungle destinations.

Puerto Jimenez is quickly becoming the more favoured of the Gulfo Dulce fishing villages (Golfito, Drake's Bay, Zancudo). Our location offers the shortest run to offshore grounds, and although remote, there are plenty of fun things to do and see in town. The fishing fleet consists of 40 boats.

The town has a population of 3000 and is remote, enjoyable and laid back. Once home to a prosperous gold mining trade, it now serves as a central location from which to enjoy the record-class sport fishing that is drawing anglers from all over the world.

The flight from San Jose to Puerto Jimenez is a scenic 55 minute ride along the pacific coast.

Two blocks from the Fishack Villa and pier, is the center of Puerto Jimenez. There are numerous restaurants, bars, stores, hotels, tour agencies and a bank. The town comes alive in the evening with locals, ex-pats and visitors alike, enjoying the famous Mango Margaritas at Juanita's Bar or icy cold Imperial beer at the Iguana Iguana Bar.

A remote and exotic area, the Osa is home to the prolific Corcovado National Park. Named by 'National Geographic' as one of the most biologically intense places in the world, a number of protected corridors run from the park and into Puerto Jimenez. Monkeys, Scarlet Macaws, Toucans, Crocodiles and more can be seen close by...often from the balconies at The Fishack!
