TriplettoPunta de Mita · Vallarta
Multi-day tuna fishing

Stay out for the bite.

Private 2.5, 3.5 and 4.5-day yellowfin expeditions from the Vallarta coast, built around real time on the offshore grounds.

Some trips are measured in miles. This one is measured in chances to be there when the yellowfin finally turn on.

The offshore banks beyond Banderas Bay reward patience, good decisions and time on the water. A multi-day trip gives your crew room to search, change the plan and fish another window without racing the clock back to port.
For the tuna obsessed

The fish are moving. So is the plan.

Yellowfin are powerful, highly mobile predators. They follow food and move through the water column; they do not stay on a bank because it is marked on a chart. The question offshore is rarely just “Which spot?” It is “What are the fish doing right now?”

You go for the moment when the clues come together: bait gathers, birds work a patch of water, a mark appears, and the captain makes the call. The next few minutes can be quiet concentration or a reel giving line faster than you expected. That uncertainty is the draw.

01 / Read the water

Current, bait, bird activity and fresh crew reports help shape the search. The captain decides whether to stay, change presentations or cover new water.

02 / Fish the moment

Ask about live bait, trolling, casting, jigging or kite fishing if one method is on your bucket list. Available techniques depend on the boat, equipment and conditions.

03 / Fight the fish

The rod loads, line leaves the spool and the whole cockpit snaps into focus. You manage pressure and line angle while the crew clears the other lines, watches the fish and talks you through the endgame.

Life aboard

Your base offshore

Work the lines while the fishing is on. Step inside to rest when the day slows. Sleep aboard, then wake with the boat already where another fishing window can begin.

The right overnight boat matters as much as the range. Tell us how many anglers will actually fish, whether you want room to rotate at the rail, and how your group feels about sleeping at sea. We will match the available boat to the trip before asking you to commit.

You set the pace. We handle the rest.

Want to show up, enjoy the ride and lift a finger only when it is time to reel in a fish? Perfect. Our team handles the planning, and your crew takes care of the boat and tackle so you get the fun without the hassle.

Prefer to get involved? Even better. Talk tactics with the captain, follow the setup and jump in wherever the crew invites you. This is your fishing trip, whether you want to work every chance or simply be ready when the rod goes off.

Before you arrive, our team checks the boat’s cleanliness, prepares fresh, high-quality linens and adds a restrained touch of styling for your group or occasion. Those details change how the whole trip feels.

The Tripletto standard

Fish hard. Rest well. Feel looked after.

We go beyond the fishing plan to make your time aboard as clean, comfortable and easy as we can. Our team prepares the boat and trip details with the same care we expect from the crew offshore.

01 / Clean from the start

Ready when you step aboard

We arrange a thorough clean before departure and check the cabins and shared spaces. Your first impression should be a boat that feels cared for.

02 / Better rest

Fresh linens, made beds

We prepare high-quality linens for your group and pay attention to the sleeping setup, because the next fishing window is better when everyone can rest.

03 / Real fishing effort

The crew keeps working

The captain and crew stay alert to bait, bird activity and changing conditions. If one approach is quiet, they can rethink the presentation or move rather than let the day drift by.

04 / Thoughtful hospitality

Let us handle the details

We organize the boat, departure, guest needs and written inclusions before you travel. Aboard, you can get involved or leave the work to the crew and be ready when a rod goes off.

Choose your time offshore

How many windows do you want?

A longer charter buys fishing time and flexibility, never a guaranteed catch. Choose the trip that fits your appetite for the search; your captain recommends the grounds and departure plan around your dates and the conditions.

The run is part of the story

Leave the coast behind and watch the horizon open up. The captain chooses the first grounds from the latest reports, the weather and what the water is showing on the run. Corbeteña and El Banco are familiar names to offshore anglers, but the day’s plan belongs to the conditions, not a fixed pin on a map.

Earn the next bite

A quiet first pass is information, not the end of the trip. The crew can look for bait, bird activity and changes in the water, then adjust the presentation or move. When a yellowfin commits, the mood changes in a second: clear the other lines, settle into the fight and listen to the captain on the deck.

A night that resets the clock

When the fishing pauses, the boat becomes your base offshore. Eat, trade theories about the day and get real rest. The reward of sleeping out there is another fishing window without starting the next morning with the full run from shore.

The questions worth asking

Are Corbeteña and El Banco guaranteed stops?

No. They are well-known offshore grounds, but your captain chooses where to fish based on your dates, safe conditions and the best current information. A fixed route is less useful than a good decision on the day.

Can we choose how we fish?

Tell us what you want to try. Live bait, trolling, casting, jigging and kite fishing each call for the right setup and conditions. We will confirm what the proposed boat can actually support before you book.

What is the overnight setup?

These trips are planned around sleeping aboard, but cabins, berths, meals, drinks and fish handling vary by vessel. Your written quote spells out the boat and the exact arrangements for your group.

Does more time guarantee a tuna?

Not necessarily. More days mean more chances to adjust and fish another window. The fish, weather and sea still make their own rules. The value is having enough time to play the long game properly. Check our fishing chart for seasonal information.

Straight answers

Anything else, message us on WhatsApp. A person replies, usually within the hour.

Where do trips depart?

Marina Vallarta, Nuevo Vallarta, La Cruz and Punta de Mita are possible departure areas, depending on the chosen boat and route. We meet you at the designated departure port for your charter. Your confirmation includes the exact meeting point and arrival time. Pickup from a different port may be possible, subject to the boat, route and conditions, and may carry an additional charge. We confirm any additional charges before you book.

How long are the tuna expeditions?

Our listed private expeditions run for 2.5, 3.5 or 4.5 days. More time offshore lets the crew work with changing conditions and stay with the bite. Tell us your dates and we will help you choose the right length.

Where do we fish for yellowfin tuna?

El Banco and Corbeteña are our offshore fishing grounds. Your crew recommends the grounds and departure plan for your dates, with the route shaped by weather, sea conditions and the fish.

What does a fishing charter include?

Each fishing boat has its own inclusions. Check the boat listing for fishing gear, bait, licenses, refreshments and onboard facilities. We confirm everything included with your chosen boat and trip before booking.

How is the boat prepared for our group?

Tripletto arranges fresh, good-quality linens and restrained styling before you arrive. Your written quote confirms the exact boat, sleeping arrangements, crew, meals, drinks, fuel, fish handling and all other inclusions before you pay a deposit.

Is the boat shared with other groups?

Never. Every trip is private to your group, and the crew plans the day around what you want to do.

Can you arrange a custom trip?

Yes. The trips and routes shown are starting points. Tell us your dates, group size, budget and ideas, and we can tailor a yacht day, fishing trip or full coastal itinerary with accommodation, flights and private transfers. We confirm the options and inclusions with you before booking, with routes planned around weather and sea conditions.

What if we don’t catch anything?

Nobody can promise fish. What we can do is put you on the right grounds for the season with a crew that fishes these waters every week. On multi-day expeditions, the extra time is what lets the crew stay with the bite.

We’ve never fished offshore. Is that a problem?

Not at all. The crew rigs, baits and coaches, and many of our guests are first-timers. Experienced anglers can fish their own way.

What if the weather turns or the sea is rough?

The captain makes the safety call. If a trip can’t run, we move it to another day of your stay or refund it.

Can you pick us up from our hotel or villa?

Private hotel, villa and airport transfers can be arranged separately, subject to availability and a tailored quote. Share where you are staying and we will confirm the options, meeting details and any additional charges before you book.

Can you book our hotel, flights and transfers too?

Yes. Send your dates and group size, and we put the whole trip in one itinerary: where you stay, how you get there and your days on the water. You deal with one person, on WhatsApp.

How do we reserve, and how do we pay?

A 50% deposit confirms your dates, with the balance before departure. Every trip is fully insured. Card payments carry a 5% surcharge, so transfer is the better value.

Can we keep the fish?

Yes, within Mexican fishing regulations. The crew can clean and bag your catch, and we can arrange for a restaurant to cook it that evening.

Can you arrange hospitality for a larger group or celebration?

Yes. We can arrange open bar, premium spirits & champagne, catering, a private chef, private transfers, event styling and corporate or celebration coordination. Optional arrangements are quoted separately and depend on guest count, duration, boat and availability. Refreshments and equipment are confirmed in your quote; any listed inclusions remain included. Any limited margarita service is not a full-charter open bar. Share your dates, guest count, occasion and desired add-ons. We confirm overnight guest capacity and sleeping arrangements separately from day-trip capacity.
