2.5-Day Offshore Spearfishing & Sport Fishing Expedition

Three days. One boat. Endless bluewater.

Journey deep into the Pacific for an immersive offshore expedition combining spearfishing, sport fishing, bluewater hunting, open-ocean camping and fresh catch cooked over the grill.

The expedition

Days measured in distance, not hours

This isn’t simply a fishing trip. It is 2.5 days completely immersed in the Pacific — offshore pinnacles, deep drop-offs, bluewater hunting, pelagic fish, spearfishing, sport fishing, sunsets, open-ocean nights and fresh fish cooked over the grill.

Instead of leaving at dawn and coming back at dusk, the boat stays out, which changes the whole character of the trip — you follow the fish rather than the schedule.

Departure
Marina La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, Bahía de Banderas, Nayarit. Meet the crew at the marina — the boat departs from there, with parking on site and about forty minutes by road from downtown Puerto Vallarta.

Itinerary

Three days offshore

Day 1

The journey begins

The expedition begins at 5:00 AM with departure from Marina La Cruz de Huanacaxtle. We travel roughly 30 miles offshore to reach our first offshore pinnacles.

The morning starts with either sport fishing or spearfishing. We drift over the pinnacles and work the pelagic species holding in the surrounding bluewater.

After that first session we push farther out toward the drop-offs, searching for productive water around 50 to 60 miles from shore.

As the sun drops we finish with a final rod-and-reel session on the open ocean. Back onboard, the grill comes on and dinner is made from the day's catch before we settle in for the night.

  • 5:00 AM departure
  • Offshore pinnacles
  • Spearfishing or sport fishing
  • Sunset fishing session
  • Catch & Cook dinner
  • Overnight offshore

Day 2

Bluewater & the tuna grounds

Day two starts around 6:00 AM with breakfast while the lines are already in the water, so there is a chance at fish on the way out to the drop-offs and tuna grounds.

Once we reach the productive areas it is time to get in the water. Depending on conditions the morning may be spearfishing along the drop-offs, bluewater diving, or working pelagics with rod and reel.

We keep at it until around midday, then take a break onboard to eat, hydrate and recover. In the afternoon we go back in around reef structure or out in open bluewater, adapting to visibility, current and fish activity.

We finish at sunset and return onboard for another Catch & Cook — fresh fish on the grill, stories from the day, and rest before the final morning.

  • 6:00 AM breakfast
  • Offshore drop-offs
  • Tuna grounds
  • Bluewater diving
  • Morning and afternoon sessions
  • Sunset Catch & Cook

Day 3

Final session & the catch comes home

The last day opens with breakfast and one more morning session on the water, taking advantage of the best conditions available for a final push.

At approximately 2:00 PM we leave the offshore grounds and run back toward La Cruz.

After arriving, the expedition comes full circle. The catch is filleted, portioned, vacuum-sealed and prepared for transport, so you take the experience — and the fish — home with you.

  • Final morning session
  • Departure around 2:00 PM
  • Return to La Cruz
  • Professional fish processing
  • Filleted and portioned
  • Vacuum-sealed for transport

Questions

Before you ask

Where does the expedition depart from?
Marina La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, on the north side of Bahía de Banderas. There is parking at the marina, and it is roughly forty minutes by road from downtown Puerto Vallarta.
Who runs the boat?
We run these expeditions with our partner Marla's Sportfishing, a third-generation Banderas Bay family operation run by the four Osuna brothers, aboard Pacific Slayer or No Tuna No Chinga.
How is a multi-day trip different from a day charter?
A day charter has to turn back. A multi-day expedition keeps you offshore, so you can reach water that is simply out of reach when you have to be home by evening.
What experience level do I need?
Tell us where your group sits and we will shape the trip around it. Long offshore days are physical, so we would rather set expectations honestly before you commit.
What does it cost?
Multi-day expeditions start at $13,670 USD all inclusive and scale with the boat, the number of days and your group size. Send an inquiry and we will come back with an exact quote.
