One of the top places to catch fish in the Mexican Caribbean is located in Cozumel. The vast number of sport fish available make it a Mecca for anyone who would like to land the catch of a lifetime. You may want to do a little research to find the best Cozumel deep sea fishing charters for your trip.

If you are traveling on a cruise ship to get there you will find that the ship offers bookings for their passengers with specific charter companies. This can be very convenient and will absolutely guarantee that your excursion will return before the ship leaves port for the next destination. They may also be over booked and crowded dependent upon how many others from the cruise plan to fish while in port.

Most private charter boats carry no more than six passengers with them. The crew is prepared to help you with your gear and set ups for catching fish. The captain will supply a number of extras when you come aboard with no extra charges.

When hiring a charter you can expect to be supplied with all of the gear needed for the day, a license allowing you to legally fish the coastal waters, and to have all taxes and fees taken care of for you. On the full day cruises you will be supplied with drinks and snacks as well as lunch. Most will clean and fillet your catch and many will prepare your catch for your dinner when you return to the harbor.

Some charter companies have the capacity to bring you and your catch to a near by night spot to have your fish prepared by a professional chef. The meal consists of your fish prepared any way you choose, sides, drinks and dessert. There is a charge for this service but it is minimal for the meal you receive.

Many charter companies also supply snorkeling gear for those who want to split their day and enjoy both activities. The crews are well versed in teaching their clients how to safely participate in both activities. Arrangements should be made in advance if you want to do both because they take place in different parts of the ocean.

The best time to arrive if you would like to fish for marlin or sailfish is during the months between March and July. This is also the best time of year for tuna fishing. The year round fare can consist of grouper, barracuda, mackerel, snapper tarpon and many others. The variety of different sport fish available is because of the many different currents that flow through this area and the food sources they provide for the different species of fish.

The charter companies in this area want their customers to return for a second trip so they set their service levels high and are continually trying to improve on their service to the clients. They seek to maintain their reputation of the largest catches and the best service available in this Caribbean paradise they occupy.
