How does Puerto Vallarta Fishing & Tours work?

We list trips run by local captains and operators across Bahía de Banderas. You compare trips, send a request for the date you want, and the captain confirms it. You pay the price shown on the listing — there is no separate booking fee added at checkout.

Every trip on this site belongs to a working captain or operator in Puerto Vallarta and the surrounding bay. We are not a boat owner and we do not run trips. What we do is put the practical details in one place — boat, duration, departure point, group size, what is included, and the captain's own cancellation terms — so you can compare properly before you commit.

We only cover Puerto Vallarta and Bahía de Banderas. Nothing on this site is in Cabo, Cancún or Florida, so the trips you are comparing are all genuinely available in the same bay on the same dates.
