Crocodile Bay Costa Rica - "Talented captains with dependable boats; an untapped sail fishery; scads of roosterfish with an inborn hostility to live bait and popping plugs."

Babe Winkelman: Good Fishing

“This is much more than arguably the world’s best saltwater fishing. I’d recommend Crocodile Bay Resort to anyone purely on the merits of their exotic tropical setting, scenic beaches, and eco-tours”.

 

Robert Montgomery: ESPN/BASS Magazine

“Crocodile Bay Resort, Costa Rica is my favorite place for fishing, enjoying nature, and just plain relaxing in Costa Rica. Accommodations, meals, and service are first class, and the setting is a tropical paradise. I can’t wait to go back again.

 

Steve Pennaz: North American Fisherman

“We raised dozens of sailfish a day, tangled with roosterfish to 50 pounds and enjoyed the best in accommodations, scenery, and service. My recommendation? Fish Crocodile Bay Resort!”

 

”Flip Pallot: Walker’s Cay Chronicles

“Crocodile Bay Resort, Costa Rica is without question, one of my favorite fishing locations on the planet! Unsurpassed fishing combined with eco-activities for non-fisher folk, make Crocodile Bay Resort the perfect destination. I’m packed and ready to leave in the morning!”

 

Rusty Chinnis, Outdoor-Travel Productions, Inc.

"I wanted to write you and let you know how impressed I was with your fishing operation at Crocodile Bay Resort, Costa Rica. As a traveling Outdoor Writer I have visited many Resorts in South and Central America. Few measure up to the standards you have set in Costa Rica. The rooms, service, grounds and most importantly the Sport fishing are all first class. I landed my first, second and third sailfish on the fly my first day out, what an experience! I would gladly recommend Crocodile Bay Resort to the most discriminating angler."

Bob Newman: Bob Newman's Outdoor Zone

I don’t return to many Resorts because I have to visit so many in my line of work. Crocodile Bay Resort is one of the handful I do return to. If you are planning a fishing trip for saltwater species, you must put Crocodile Bay Resort among the top five fishing Resorts in the Northern Hemisphere.

Mark Sosin: Saltwater Journal

“Crocodile Bay boasts exciting fishing for billfish, roosterfish, and dozens of other species along with spectacular eco-tours and premier accommodations in one of Costa Rica’s prettiest locations. You can’t ask for more. The comfortable accommodations of Crocodile Bay overlook some of Costa Rica’s best fishing opportunities for countless species that include roosterfish, sailfish, and cubera snapper. Add exciting eco-tours and you have the perfect spot for outdoor adventure at its best!”

The Spa at Crocodile Bay Resort

"I have traveled the world for the past 20 years as the wife of a Major League Baseball player. During that time I have visited spas throughout the United States, Canada and Japan. I have found the Spa at Crocodile Bay Resort to be right up there with the best."
