The island of Roatan is situated smack-dab between Honduras and the deeper waters of the Carribean Sea, allowing for amazing offshore fishing right off the coast. RoaTide takes full advantage of that and invites you to join them on an exciting fishing adventure that only an island as bountiful as Roatan can offer!

Climb aboard their 23' Bayliner center console, fitted with a bimini top and perfectly suited for the diverse waters of the Caribbean Sea. She's equipped to help anglers battle large sea predators, with downriggers to extend your reach when trolling and a live bait tank, to keep your bait alive and kicking. She can develop a maximum cruising speed of 50 knots, thanks to her Yamaha Enduro engine, providing 200 HP worth of thrust.

She can hold up to 6 anglers, with 4 being able to fish at any one time.

Your guide and instructor for this exciting fishing adventure will be Captain Lewis Gough. He'll take you after a variety of gorgeous fish species that inhabit the area. You can head to a number of secret spots around the island where you will battle the famous Silver Kings, as well as Permits and Bonefish. Alternatively, you can head out into the blue, where you will be up against a wide array of species like Kingfish, Groupers, Amberjacks, Barracuda, Mahi Mahi, Mutton Snappers, Wahoos, Blackfin Tunas, and Sailfish. Wherever you go Captain Lewis is ready to give you a hand so you have as much fun as possible on his trips!

Alternatively, if Captain Lewis isn't available, another highly-qualified local captain will take his place and make sure your trips become excellent memories.

Children under the age of 10 are not allowed on board, the charter will provide life jackets in all sizes. Snacks and drinks are all provided and included in the price. The first mate will clean, fillet, and bag your catch – he works for tips exclusively so gratuity is greatly appreciated.

The One, The Only - ROA TIDE
Half Day Deep Sea Fishing 32' Panga on September 25, 20252 adults2 children

My goodness, to start, the water and forestry in Roatan is absolutely beautiful! We got the best views from our Captains' boat! We started out our adventure by catching Tuna, and Skip Jack, our bait. Honestly, we were looking forward to the Tuna and the captain actually made us Sashimi with it and sided it with delicious local pineapple (best we've ever had). Our start was slow but our crew never gave up on fidung the fish and putting forth their best efforts to get us some local catches! We caught a Barracuda which was veyond exciting and mesmerizing watching it attack the tuna at the surface in the clear water. Then, we hooked up with a Grouper, which was an immense feeling from 200ft down! Our captain and his first mate were exceptional and very very knowledgeable. Our family hopes to return to Roatan to do more tours with them such as the pirate tour they offer. They arranged secure transportation for us from the port to the dock and back. Everyone was on time and very efficient and friendly. We appreciate the whole experience and hope to share future adventures woth Roa Tide!

Reported catch:
Great Barracuda
Black Grouper

Must do excursion in beautiful Roatan!
Half Day Deep Sea Fishing 32' Panga on March 24, 20264 adults2 children

Our family had an incredible time out with the Roatide crew for a morning fishing trip. Captain and crew worked so hard to ensure we had a great time. We had some big fish on the line and ended our day snorkeling which was absolutely breathtaking. We definitely recommend booking with Roatide and will again. Our transportation to and from the port was with Kendall Thompson and his service alone was 5 star worthy. He's a gem!

captain worked hard for pelagic without much sucess. so we changed gears and did some snapper fishing before a snorkeling stop. Had a fabulous lunch at a local restaurant where they cooked up our snapper. It was delicious. My daughters and I had a great time.
