From Huatulco, we access undoubtedly one of the most marlin-friendly area in the world.

Sailfish fishing action at Huatulco can be quite intense, with double-digit shots per day, and “offshore” fishing can begin within a mile or so of the beach, as steep drop-offs are present in several areas.

 The cooler water winter months are peak for yellowfin tuna and dorado, or mahi-mahi, from December through March.

The warm water summer months are good for sailfish and blue and black marlin offshore.

Huatulco’s billfish productivity is unbeatable!

Black, blue and striped marlin, sailfish and swordfish run in high concentration just few miles off the nine Bays of Huatulco on Mexico’s Pacific Coast.

Tidal rips close to the mainland, southeast of Huatulco in the direction of Guatemala, Rio Copalita and Bahia de Conejos form the confluence of a river and a bay which attracts large blue and black marlin and a good bunch of inshore species such as roosterfish and snook. Well-defined tide lines and color changes can be found each day, which draw schools of bonito, tuna and dorado which, in turns, attract large predators.

Inshore fishing for jacks, roosterfish, sierra, and black skipjack picking up in April and May.

Sailfish are present most of the year with peaks occurring April thru mid-September and November-February if the rain season in October-November cooperates with abundant rains. During these peaks months, 15 to 25 sails raised is common.

Dorado are available year round. Cubera grouper, Roosterfish, and snapper prefer the warmest months of April thru August, while Spanish mackerel and Amberjack are plentiful October thru March. World record-size Snook are present between May-June and August-November.

Black marlin have a very excellent run between November and May and the big girls show up in August. Huatulco’s blacks usually average 450 pound in the high season, while fish around 700 pound are more realistic in August. Blue marlin show up between April and September averaging well over 450 pound. Stripe Marlin can be present in March and April averaging 150 pounds, but are unpredicable. Swordfish are present year round with a peak in activity between April and August.

 Yellowfin Tuna are abundant between October and June. Dorado are available year round. Cubera Grouper, Roosterfish, and Snapper prefer the warmest months of April thru August, while Spanish mackerel and Amberjack are plentiful October thru March. World record-size Snook are present between May-June and August-November.

 From the end of November until March is the yellowfin tuna season and big dorado (mahi-mahi, bull-dolphin) season due to the coldest water during the year. From March until the end of May the fishing is very slow, some dorado, some wahoo, some small yellowfin tuna. Beginning in June is the sailfish season and this peaks in July and August. July is also good for blue marlin that you can catch just 5 miles from shore
