H&M Landing

Status: active

H&M Landing has been a cornerstone of San Diego's offshore fishing scene since 1935, building nearly nine decades of expertise in reading the Pacific's pelagic migrations. The operation runs year-round trips targeting Bluefin Tuna in spring, Yellowtail at the Coronado Islands in summer, and seasonal opportunities for Yellowfin, Mahi-Mahi, and rockfish species. With access to multiple launch points across San Diego and regular expeditions to Guadalupe Island and Baja California, H&M Landing combines institutional knowledge of local waters with the infrastructure to support both day trips and longer-range adventures.

  "fishingSeasonsNarrative": "My year on the water is dictated by the incredible migrations and feeding patterns of the pelagic species that frequent the waters off San Diego. While we operate year-round, the true excitement kicks off in the spring with the arrival of Bluefin Tuna, often found in the offshore waters and providing thrilling battles. As summer approaches, the Coronado Islands become a hotspot for Yellowtail, offering fantastic opportunities for both local and longer trips. The fall and winter months can still bring excellent action, with opportunities for Yellowtail and other species depending on the conditions and bait availability. Each season presents a unique challenge and reward, from the powerful runs of Bluefin to the aggressive strikes of Yellowtail, ensuring an unforgettable experience for every angler.",

      "answer": "While many of the trips departing daily from H&M Landing fish in Mexican waters, a passport is NOT REQUIRED unless we are fishing near the Mexican coast or near any of their offshore islands. During the summer months, most of our trips are scheduled to fish OFFSHORE (well outside of 12 miles) where a passport is NOT required. If a trip is operating within 12 miles of the Mexican coast of any of their islands, a Mexican Tourist Visa (FMM) is required. Examples of the types of trips that require an FMM include Baja Long Range, Full Day Coronado Islands and Winter Coastal Rockfish. The H&M Landing booking website and/or H&M staff will notify you when you inquire about a reservation whether an FMM and Passport are required on the trip you have chosen. H&M Landing will issue the necessary FMM for trips on which they are required. The process for issuing an FMM requires that the applicant has a valid International or U.S. Passport Book or US Passport Card. Personal documentation requirements have become standard for both domestic and international travel. While the vast majority of our trips do not require a Passport, H&M Landing recommends that for the most flexibility and whenever practical our customers obtain a valid U.S. Passport Card or Passport Book.",

All necessary licenses are available to purchase at H&M Landing. Pricing for CA Fishing Licenses can be found on the California Department of Fish and Wildlife website. All Annual Licenses are valid for 365 days, NOT calendar year. Annual licenses require an Ocean Enhancement Stamp. You can purchase your California Fishing license upon check-in. Everyone fishing in Mexican waters needs a Mexican Fishing Permit. If fishing, whale watching or diving within 12 miles of the coast or offshore islands, Mexican Visa (FMM) is also required. Some trips include the Mexican Sportfishing License and Mexican Visa in the price of the ticket; some do not. An Excursion Permit is required instead of the Daily Fishing Permit for all trips of 2.5 days and longer. All required permits are available through H&M Landing for trips aboard H&M fleet vessels.",
