Cabo Fishing Reports
Current Fishing Report Spring 2020
A word about the Coronavirus and your Cabo Trip;
The health of our family, employees and clients is our utmost importance right now. Fortunately Cabo has had very little impact from the Corona Virus with to our knowledge only a few cases in Cabo and only a few in the entire Baja. We do remain open as well as the Hotel to support the community and the few tourist that are still coming in. Some Airlines have canceled flights until the middle of April, 2020, however some like, Alaska, American & United continue to still have flights arriving to Los Cabos daily - even today. We have taken all of the precautionary measures to clean & disinfect the boats each day, as well the Hotels, transportation are taking the same necessary precautions. However, with the current situation still unknown, along with the travel concerns and advisories, our fleet & resort are currently working together rescheduling clients that don't want to travel or can't travel, to any future date without any fees etc. You can wait until up to the date of the trip or charter to let us know and you do not need to know your future dates at this time - that way you can just wait until we get closer to your trip or charter dates to see how things are going and if there is any improvement. This also applies to any new booking for the remainder of 2020, should you book a trip for this summer or fall & things change again we will allow you to reschedule and move your booked Charter or Hotel-Fishing package to any future date.
As you know the travel industry is one of the industries most affected by this situation, so we appreciate your patience and support during this as we continue to wait for more answers and improvement, Gracias, David & Carols, Fiesta Sportfishing & Los Dorados Fleet
