The “Rodeo de Lanchas Mexicanas” Cozumel's Annual Fishing Tournament


The “Rodeo de Lanchas Mexicanas” is going to be held from May 13th and May 16th, 2022 on its 51st edition. On May 13th there will be an inaugural dinner, 14th and 15th are for catching the winners, and on the 16th there will be trophies and prizes handed out. Fishermen come from all over the country to participate on it. Boats from Cancun, Puerto Morelos, Puerto Aventuras, Mahahual, Chetumal, etc also come to Cozumel.


It has to be a Mexican Boat but non-Mexican fishermen are allowed.

You can charter a boat with Aquadventures! The cost is $2,000 USD for 2 days and that will include the inscription fee. Don't wait to Reserve!!!



The captain and crew will work hard to get you on the fish and make sure that you are well taken care of while on board. The boats are rigged with Penn, Shimano, and/or Okuma fishing gear, as well as downrigger and outriggers that allows us to have 5 lines in the water plus teasers. Our crew is very experienced and has fished the area since they were kids.


The obvious target is Blue Marlin which gives you the most points but White Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo and Tuna are also good catches to get you on the score.


Well over 100 boats participate. And they will be fishing for about 10 hours each day (Saturday and Sunday) Besides the big tournament, there are others in Cozumel, Playa del Carmen, Puerto Morelos, Mahahual, Punta Allen, etc that are going to be held almost every weekend during May and June. Some of them are only for women, others are for a specific species (The “Golden Mahi Mahi Tournament” for example).


The inscription is $7,000 mxn, you'll get a welcome cocktail and Beach Pool Party! If you book a charter with us it is included in the price.


There is more than $350,000 mxn in prized in CASH!


Trophies for the top winners!
