Crocodile Bay Resort, located on the Osa Peninsula on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica, was recently highlighted in Marlin Magazine. This is an area and a fishery that offers very consistent action for sailfish, marlin, roosters, tuna, wahoo, dorado, and more. Whether you’re looking to fish hard every single day or trying to combine a fishing trip with the numerous, fantastic ecotour activities and options offered in this part of the world, Costa Rica and Crocodile Bay have long been a Central American favorite.
Read an excerpt below:
"Crocodile Bay sits just a stone’s throw outside the town of Puerto Jiménez, somewhat in the middle of Golfo Dulce. From the moment guests arrive on the property, there is an atmosphere of laid-back luxury. The resort itself is not enormous but rather intimate, with a collection of modern, comfortable rooms set in lush landscaping. There’s a private 700-foot pier stretching into the gulf, a fleet of well-maintained boats bobbing and ready, a sparkling pool, and even a spa for a post-fishing massage. What guests love most about Crocodile Bay is how immersed in nature it feels despite offering modern comforts.
The entire lodge and experience at Crocodile Bay has transformed recently with the expansion of the hotel in partnership with the Hilton Curio Collection. Whereas in its early history, guests were primarily attracted to the lodge’s world-class fishing, the Botanika resort now emphasizes a balance between families seeking to explore the natural wonders of the Osa Peninsula as well as those interested in the marine recreational activities in and around Golfo Dulce."
