Families in Tárcoles, on Costa Rica’s Central Pacific coast, have relied on small scale fishing for years—but this way of life is increasingly precarious. An alternative, fishing tours, has brought new opportunities.

A school that started in Guanacaste and is now located in Puntarenas seeks to integrate women into the workforce on tourist and sport fishing vessels.
