The waters surrounding Manuel Antonio National Park are among the most productive fishing grounds in Costa Rica. The mangrove estuaries of the Damas Island system — just north of Quepos — provide exceptional habitat for snook, one of the most prized inshore game fish in the world, along with roosterfish, cubera snapper, and jack crevalle.
Unlike the open ocean fishing from Quepos Marina, Manuel Antonio mangrove fishing is an intimate, quiet experience — casting into the channels and pools within the mangrove system where the fish lie in ambush. The combination of stunning natural scenery, extraordinary wildlife (crocodiles, monkeys, and birds surround you as you fish), and excellent fishing makes this a truly unique experience.
