What is included in the price?
Each trip lists its own included items on the trip page. On most Puerto Vallarta charters that means the boat, crew, fuel, rods, tackle and bait, with food, drinks and fish cleaning varying by operator.
There is no single house standard, because these are independent boats. What there is, on every trip page, is an explicit list of what that captain includes — read it, because it is the honest answer for that boat rather than a generic one.
- Almost always included: the boat, the captain and crew, fuel, rods, reels, terminal tackle and bait.
- Often included: bottled water, ice, and a cooler for your catch.
- Varies by operator: food, beer and soft drinks, live bait, and fish cleaning.
- Rarely included: hotel transfers, and the crew tip.
