Riviera Maya Deep Sea Fishing Charter near Cancun

I thought I would share a little more information about our new sportfishing location at Puerto Morelos, in Quintana Roo State, Mexico, about 15 minutes south of the Cancun International Airport. The all new, El Cid Caribe Hotel and Marina facility is an extension of the world-famous, El Cid Mega-Resort, in Mazatlan. Everything is literally new, the sportfishing operation, the marina, the hotel, (300 five-star luxury units) and is located on a white, sandy beach, midway between Cancun & Cozumel, (approximately 20-25 miles in either direction).

The sportfishing operations and marina are under the guidance of General Manager Armando Gutierrez, (Armando went to the Maritime College with Geronimo Cevallos, the GM of the Marina El Cid, in Mazatlan).

Armando has a genuine interest in the services provided aboard the various sportfishers and sincerely cares about the success of your charter fishing arrangements. Customer satisfaction has become his personal goal, which has long been the standard for all El Cid Marinas and hotels. Armando is English fluent and enormously responsive to providing a superior sportfishing entertainment operation.

The Cancun Puerto Morelos sportfishing fleet consists of four top-notch sportfishing cruisers, (a 29' Bertram, 29' Californian, a 29' Phoenix and a 31' Uniflite) all rigged with outriggers, downriggers, Penn fishing tackle, twin diesel power, required safety equipment, ship tto shore radios, sparkling clean bathrooms and more..... Additional sportfishers for larger groups are available and can be added as the need requires.

Captain Kalusha and his crew welcome you aboard for your fishing day and will look forward to the privilege of your company.

This fast Bertram sportfisher (cruises at 25-knots) is the latest addition to the Puerto Morelos sportfishing fleet from the Marina El Cid and allows for up to 8 passengers in an air-conditioned setting. The fishing cockpit is open and spacious and provides two fighting chairs, outriggers, downriggers, tackle locker and more. The salon cabin is fully air-conditioned and provides a small sofa and small refrigerator. A sparkling clean enclosed head (bathroom) is just forward of the interior salon. In addition to the rods and reels aboard, "Hammer" has radar, fathometer and ship to ship to shore radio capabilities increasing her fishing capabilities.

Charters are inclusive of boats, crew, fuel, Mexican fishing licenses, all fishing tackle, rigged baits, beer, soft drinks, water, dispatch fees, ice, value added taxes and round-trip ground transportation from any Cancun and local hotels.

The sportfishers come well equipped, using Penn Senator 4/0's, with 30-40 lb. line, terminal tackle, down-riggers, outriggers and fighting chair(s). Most of the blue water fishing is accomplished using rigged ballyhoo as trolling baits. Electronics consist of Fish Finders, GPS navigation and VHF ship-to-ship/shore radios on both, the cruisers and super pangas.

The distance to the fishing grounds is incredibly close and begins within 2 miles of the Marina entrance, allowing for much more fishing time for each charter. All-in-all, we, expect this new addition to our charter service to enhance sportfishing opportunities for our angling customers traveling to the Cancun-Cozumel area.
