Fishermen cast their nets from the shore and rarely pull it back empty. Dorado, tuna, sailfish, marlin, jack, pampano, and hundreds of other kinds of fish are plentiful in Puerto's sea, which makes it an ideal spot for sport fishermen. Both are well attended. Puerto supports all types of fishing. People who prefer to stalk fish beneath the water will want to rent snorkeling gear along with a spear gun.
Fishermen can either take a boat out to deeper waters or swim from shore.
Even when the water is darker fish can be seen swimming by. For the more experienced and daring, there are small rock caves on the bottom of the sea that often draw large fish. Fishermen who prefer to use rods will not be disappointed with Puerto's waters. There are many different privately-owned boats that are available for charter trips. Upon returning, the day's catch can be taken to a palapa and prepared to specifications, taken home, or simply given away.
