Costa Rica is one of the most visited sport fishing destinations in the world. This is primarily due to the ready availability of three of the most popular sport fish species, the presence of significant infrastructure, and the fact that Costa Rica is already a tourist destination. People flock to Costa Rica from all over the world for a uniquely wonderful sport fishing experience.

As an added bonus, it is common to see sea turtles, dolphins, and whales during fishing trips.
