The waters of Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo are particularly appealing and exciting to fish since there is a traditional rich history of tremendous sportfish stocks as well as a lack of angling pressure.

Offshore species such as Pacific Sailfish, Blue & Black Marlins, Yellowfin Tuna, Dorado, and Wahoo as well as an assortment of inshore species including Roosterfish, Snapper, Grouper, Spanish Mackerel, and Yellowtail Jacks are available throughout the year.
