Fish & Stay Packages
Mad Marlin Sport Fishing’s all-inclusive fish & stay packages are affordable on almost any budget. We offer offshore fishing charters in Guatemala at great value without cutting corners. On head-to-head comparison with any other big game fishing charter service in our area, Mad Marlin will meet or beat any published pricing for equal services.
Day Charters | Sailfish Guatemala
For clients who want to fish with us but make their own provisions for transportation, food, beverages, and accommodations we offer economical day charters. Our fishing charters are the same for everyone but these fishing-only plans are popular because these clients do not pay for services that they do not need. We offer the best rates in the Guatemala fleet and will beat or meet any offers for comparable services.
Guatemala Tours
The Mad Marlin staff can also arrange optional non-fishing activities and tours during their fishing vacation. Trips to Antigua with guided tours and fine dining are among the favorite things to do for anyone visiting Guatemala.

TARGET SPECIES
Target sailfish, blue marlin, striped marlin, black marlin, dorado (mahi mahi), yellowfin tuna as close as 6 miles from the beach. Inshore, catch roosterfish, spanish mackerel, jack crevale, and more. We catch mostly blue marlin and striped marlin in Guatemala. We do release several big black marlin each year but they are much more rare than the blue marlin and stripe marlin.
Conservation practices are a big deal in Guatemala so all sailfish, marlin, and roosterfish are protected species and 100% catch and release.
