Cancun Deep Sea FishingCancun and the peninsula of Yucatan is often referred to as"the privileged location on the Mayan Riviera for Sailfish migration"It is in these waters off Yucatan, between Isla Mujeres ("the Island of Women" in front of Cancun) and the bio-preserve Isla Contoy, where the big game fish love to lurk. Fresh runs of blue and white Marlin, Dorado, Sailfish, and Yellowfin Tuna tempt anglers all year around. View our sports fishing calendar below and gamefish description. Due to the unique topography, the area is virtually perched on the edge of an underwater valley. The sandy ocean floor plunges dramatically down into deep blue darkness, bringing the hunting ground for monster-sized game fish practically to the shore. Sports fishermen also praise the southern beaches of this area for their abundance of Dorado, Wahoo, Barracuda, Jack Crevalle, Red Snapper, Grouper, Spanish Makarel and other minor species. There are tales of the seasonal Marlin runs that offer up giants as large as a 500 pounds, "once you see that sail jumping out of the water, you're hooked".
