How far offshore will we go?

• Inside the bay — reef and inshore fishing, usually four to six hours, calmest water.
• The Marietas Islands and Punta Mita — roughly an hour out, a common full-day target.
• El Morro and the outer bay — longer days, bigger water, better bluewater chances.
• Corbeteña and El Banco — the deep offshore marks, typically ten to twelve hours or more, and the reason serious anglers come to this bay.

The far marks are a long run in each direction, so a trip advertised as twelve hours may include four hours of traveling. That is normal, and it is the trade-off for fishing water most visitors never see.
