Package Details
-
Day One
Fly into San Jose, Costa Rica where you will be met inside the airport and taken right to your waiting private transfer. We will take you down the Pacific Coast until you reach the popular beach town of Manuel Antonio. Known as the ‘fishing capital of Costa Rica’, this is also the home of the world famous Manuel Antonio National Park. Here you’ll stay in your own luxury bungalow at the Tulemar Bungalows hotel. Situated on the 33 acre Tulemar property, you’ll be surrounded by lush rain forest while having access to three pools, a restaurant & bar, and your own private beach.
-
Day Two
Try something different today and head out on one of our fresh water rivers for a day of fly fishing in the middle of the jungle. Your guide, originally a fly fishing guide from Colorado, will float you down the Savegre or Naranjo Rivers while you cast towards the shoreline and in eddies in hopes of landing roncador, grunts, machaca, and even snook or snapper. Nicknamed “the float of 1,000 casts”, the natural beauty and diversity that you’ll see will be an unforgettable experience.
-
Day Three
Now it’s time for your next challenge – billfish. Today you’ll run off-shore for a full day of fly fishing for marlin and sailfish. Being able to even have the opportunity to present your fly to a billfish all depends on having a capable and experienced fly fishing crew, and we have just that. With over 30 years of experience and 4 IGFA records under their belts, our guys will be sure to give you the chance to cast to a trophy billfish – but landing it is up to you!
-
Day Four
Relax and enjoy the beach or let us take you on the canopy zip-line tour! Fly through the canopy of the rain forest on 13 cables and try not to scream on the Tarzan swings!
-
Day Five
Head back out for another day of fly fishing for marlin and sailfish. Our boats participate in the annual fly fishing tournament in Quepos so they know where to find them and how to tease them close to the stern so you can present them your fly. If you find a trash line for floating trees you might have the opportunity to fly fish for dorado as they are notorious for congregating under floating objects.
-
Day Six
Relax and enjoy your free day! Enjoy the wildlife and three pools on the Tulemar property or head down to spend the day swimming and napping at your own private.
-
Day Seven
You will be picked up in the morning and taken 30 minutes south to the Savegre River for one more day of fly fishing. This class II-III river starts high up in the mountains and empties out into the Pacific. In addition to a beautiful waterfall and gentle rapids, the river also offers six different species of fish to fly fish for. All fly gear and flies will be provided for you, but you are welcome to bring your own 5-6 wt rod if you like.
-
Day Eight
With tired arms, slight sunburn, and hopefully a camera full of pictures we will fly you 30 minutes back to the SJO International Airport for your flight home.
