Charly`s sailing and sport fishing - 48354 Puerto Vallarta

For nearly five decades I have been fishing. For as long as i can remember I have been trying to catch a marlin. I have been on over two dozen fishing trips or excursions. I have been on boats where we caught the limit and where we have caught big fish. I have been on boats with great crews and captains. But I have never been on a trip like this. When we started talking to Serafin outside the office, I knew we had the right crew. They worked with us on the price and helped pick out a great boat and crew for us. Serafin took the time to make sure we understood everything about the trip. Then he took us down to the deli and ordered lunch for us for the next day (it was delicious). He reminded us to bring beer, pop, and snacks. They took care of the water and ice. From the moment we set foot on the boat, Pablo and his mate were great. When it started to drizzle, they had foul weather gear for us. When it came time to eat we all shared our food. When I realized my dream and caught a marlin, we had a cerveza or two. When my son then caught a bigger marlin we had a cerveza and a laugh or two. All in all, great crew, great trip, and the best time I have ever had on a fishing boat. Muchas gracias to Serafin, Pablo and our first mate (whose name I am embarrassed to say I forgot). Take my advice and go with Charly's, you will have a great time.

We didn’t actually get to go out on the boat we rented, but I wanted to give them five stars for being super accommodating and kind. We made a last-minute reservation to take a boat to Sayulita. When we woke up the next day and drove over to the marina, my friend started puking (travel sickness, I guess). They were very understanding about the cancellation and even let her camp out in their bathroom until she was ready to get in a car again. Will be back sometime in the future hopefully! Thanks Omar and friends

Jose and Juan took us out today and it was absolutely amazing, hands down the best birthday gift ever! I would highly recommend Charley's Sport Fishing to anyone who is an expert fisherman to someone who has never fished before! We will definitely be back again!

Awesome fishing experience. We went out with Jaime who was super experienced and a local fisherman that has been fishing for three generations. Our trip was 10 hours and boy are we glad he was our guide! ended up catching an 8ft Blue Marlin. Highly recommend these guys! Had the fishing experience of a life time! Will be back in a year!

We had an awesome time ! Way better than doing the Vallarta Adventures things, and also cheaper Thanks to Raphael and the whole team :) highly recommended

We decided to do a fishing outing while on vacation. There were 3 of us and we did an 8 hour trip with captain Gabi on the new rooster superpanga. The boat was a beaut, Gabi and the deckhand worked hard the entire time and got us on some jack crevell, blackjack, and needlefish. Kind of unexpected for it being early December, especially when all the other boats came back empty. The crew was great, spoke good English, was honest and fun the entire time. Everything was as described and I will definitely only be using Charly’s for my fishing needs. Thanks guys!

We booked about six weeks in advance, Charly was on time waiting for us at the dock, he also was at the dock waiting for us when we returned. Great customer service. Sergio was our captain and Jesus was our deck hand, we did not do well fishing , but they were great and worked hard, fishing is slow in July. We may try again in November. I will use them again.

These guys know what they're doing! We had a great trip, and caught about 20-25 fish in about 4 hours. We decided to go with the 38' ship. The captain and crew were awesome! Probably the best tasting ceviche I have ever had, made fresh on board!
