FISHING REPORTS
TAMARINDO - CARRILLO
Tamarindo and Carrillo are located in the northern part of Costa Rica, Guanacaste, which can be very windy during the winter months. But, Tamarindo is on the edge of the windy area and fishing there can often run to the south to get in the lee of the mountains that will block these winds. Carrillo is about thirty miles south of Tamarindo and is out of the wind zone.

Most of the charterboats in this area operate out of Tamarindo, but will move to Carrillo for three day or longer bookings. As in the rest of Costa Rica, most are aimed at parties of four or less, but a couple can carry up to six passengers. Full day charters include all bait, tackle, lunch & drinks, but not the fishing license ($24, good for a year), which you may or may not need depending on whether the agent who sells them is around on the day that you
fish. These boats are only a few of the boats that are based here, and in addition, during the winter months other boats that are normally based in Flamingo, further to the north, migrate to Carrillo to escape the northerly Papagayo winds.

These are only a few of the many hotels in the Tamarindo and Carrillo Beach area. Tamarindo is the largest village and as well developed tourist facilities. Carrillo is a smaller and more laid back village.
The international airport at Liberia is only around an hour away by road, so it is a better choice than San Jose for the intrnational traveler.

Tropical Fishing Adventures can arrange as much or as little of your trip that you want, including the hotel, fishing boat as well as the international travel and transportation between the airport and the coast, or any other part of Costa Rica.
