Big Ocean Fishing!

The villages of Melaqué and Barra de Navidad have a long history with the sea. Our favourite guide, Gerarrdo Kosonoy really knows the waters around the area. He'll take you out in his small boat into the open Pacific, where you'll see Dolphins, Whales, Porpoises, Sea Turtles, Sailfish, Dorado, and Marlin!

Recently one of our guests landed a monster Marlin, weighing in at well over 200 Kilograms (440+ lbs.!!!).

Maybe you'll break the record on your visit?

 

  Surfing, Fishing and Other Water Activities around Melaque, Mexico

The entrance of the Navidad Lagoon has the best surfing around Melaque. The vacation resort area provides the surfers with plenty of big waves and hours of surfing or boogie boarding every day. Down a couple of bays, you can also surf at El Ranchito or go north to La Manzanilla and Boca de Iguanas. Check the surfing reports every day to find out where the big waves are for some great adventures on the water.

If fishing is your sport, try fishing for red snappers, sailfish and marlins off the shores of Barra de Navidad. You rent the equipment and the boat from area fish houses for an all day excursion. If fishing happens to suit you, Melaque has many charters available with expert guides to help you land that big fish. Catch the fish and have your picture taken as you come off the boat with the one that did not get away.

Boating on the Pacific Ocean in a rented boat or one that has a tour guide to point out interesting sights and tell some interesting stories always leaves you feeling relaxed and content. If the ocean seems a bit large, try a boat tour at some of the Lagoons in the area. Beautiful waters and wildlife will surround you as the boat passes by some beautiful sights.

Snorkeling around the white coral reef located by Tenacatita is extraordinary as you swim around the water and see some of the marine life that stays close to the white coral reef. You have seen expeditions on television, and when you visit Melaque, you can experience all the great sights under water for yourself. Some of the most colorful marine life lives by the white coral reef.

Windsurfing has become a popular water activity in Mexico as people set their sails, glide across the waters, and experience the warm sea breeze that takes them from one side of the community to the other without stopping. Enjoy a day out on the ocean and enjoy a wonderful experience of wind surfing.

Whale watching is an experience of a lifetime as you set out on a boat to sit and watch the beautiful and intelligent Orcas jump and swim around in there natural habitat. The whales come closer to shore during the winter months and have been witness by many who come away in total amazement. When visiting this vacation resort community, you must see the Orcas.
