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!”

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
