Some of the best fishing I have ever experienced was out of Quepos on the Pacific. Black marlin, blue marlin, Pacific sailfish much bigger then the Florida variety, roosterfish, cubera and many other species inhabit the waters very close to shore. A lot of beautiful resorts with fabulous views in the area. Manuel Antonio National Park is spectacular. The famous "white faced monkeys" were easy to find and photograph.

Los Suenos Resort, a few miles North, is also a good fishing port. I believe Marriott has a golf resort there as well. Beaches in the area are beautiful especially near Manuel Antonio. Did not enjoy San Jose especially after dark. One of our fishing buddies was mugged in the park going back to his hotel from a restaurant. He was beaten severely.
