Famous for huge blue marlin as well as thrilling, hard-fighting
black marlin, these Mexican fishing destinations offer the
biggest fish and best variety of species of any Mexican resort
area. Besides blue marlin and black marlin, the Sea of Cortez
near Baja's East Cape is a spring spawning ground for striped
marlin. These magnificent gamefish thrive all year in these
waters. Although smaller in size when reaching adult size than
the blues and blacks (striped marlin grow to 200 pounds here,
while blue and black marlin approach 1000 pounds),
the stripers are renowned as the hardest-fighting marlin
species, pound-for-pound. Other billfish found near Baja's East
Cape include swordfish, as well as numerous Pacific sailfish.
The Baja Peninsula juts into the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific
Ocean, providing anglers quick access to the cobalt blue ocean
depths, which are home to numerous pelagic gamefish species.
Much more than a billfishing destination only, the Sea of
Cortez
also offers anglers huge schools of yellowfin tuna, including
fish that exceed 200 pounds. The tuna roam the open ocean along
with thousands of porpoises, sharing mutual food sources and
working in tandem to hunt for prey. Acrobatic dorado (also known
mahi-mahi in Hawaii and dolphin fish in the United States) also
are available in significant numbers.
The stretches of sandy beaches ringing the "Bahia de las Palmas"
(Bay of the Palms) is known as the "Roosterfish Capital of the
World". Inshore grouper species like roosterfish commonly exceed
50 pounds in the Sea of Cortez. Plus, you'll find literally
