About the tour
We introduce one of the most popular excursions and a true treasure at Iguana Tours. This tour in the Damas Island Estuary is a unique experience leading you to discover the flora and fauna of the tropical rainforest and the delicate mangrove ecosystem, while you cruise quietly in one of our vessels through the numerous water channels.
Once your guide has spotted the perfect location, you will stop and begin fishing. You will be able to catch snook, roosters, seabass, mackerel, red snapper, and black snapper. This activity is perfect for an experienced fisherman or a family.
Capture the magic of the mangrove waters and learn about trolling - the spectacular local art of yoyo fishing. Your specialist guide will prepare live bait, assist with the equipment, and nourish you with refreshments and more.
Don’t leave Manuel Antonio without having experienced the beauty of the mangroves and this unique fishing adventure.
