Costa Holiday Catch

 

During the holiday season you are always on the hunt for deals. Look no further than the Costa Holiday Catch Sweepstakes where you can enter to win one of two fishing trips. Adventure one, a trip to Casa Vieja Lodge or Adventure 2, the Florida Keys.

Two lucky anglers will be guided by Costa Pro Captains and spend a day reeling in billfish, and a day helping coastal areas in need. Both rewarding opportunities in much needed regions.

After you register for the sweepstakes, give the gift of Costa sunglasses to a loved one to help them spot billfish quicker than the CVL crew!
