Avid fisherman and amateurs alike will love sport fishing in Lake Arenal with a breathtaking view of the volcano. Many people say this is the best way to see what volcano aficionados have declared to be the third most perfect volcano cone in the world. Arenal is one of the world's most active volcanos. The two most commonly sought after fish are the Guapote and the Machaca. We use private boats that allow only two anglers per boat.
Fishing is good year-round.
We are offering boat trips across Lake Arenal from January through July as another method of getting from Monteverde to Arenal or visa versa. This is a fun boat trip with a spectacular view of the volcano. Reservations are required. The waterfall rises 70 meters from the rain forest's floor. You will descend and hike through the dense rain forest where you will see amazing specimens of flora.
