awesome trip!
6 Hour Trip on June 16, 20262 adults

What an incredible day on the water! Huge thanks to Russell, Lucero, and Juan for putting us right on the fish from the start. These guys worked hard all day to keep us on the bite, and it paid off big time. We ended up catching a pile of bonito, a nice grouper, and two great snapper to top it off. What really set this trip apart was the service and hospitality. On the ride back to the marina, the crew prepared fresh sashimi from our catch, and it was absolutely outstanding. It doesn't get much better than enjoying fresh fish while cruising back after a successful day on the water. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, hardworking crew that knows where the fish are and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone has a great experience, I highly recommend fishing with Russell, Lucero, and Juan. We'll definitely be back!

Great trip!
6 Hour Trip - 1:00 PM on May 24, 20263 adults

We started off the trip catching bait fish, reeling Bonitas in three at a time! The water was a little rock-n-roll in deeper water and my teen got a little sick! The Captain made a suggestion to go back to shallow water and this was a good option. The water was calmer and we started catching Barracudas! My son reeled in a big one that measured 58" and probably sixty plus pounds! The Captain kept us on the fish and the deck hands worked their tails off keeping lines in the water! There were times when we were reeling in more than one fish at a time! They had plenty of cold drinks and made sure we felt welcome onboard! We used Uber to and from the marina which was around $55 round trip total and about 25-30 min from the North Central end of the Hotel District. Cell Phones work once you get back to the marina gate! There is a security gate to get into the resort/marina, don't let them try to drop you off outside the gate, its still a 1/4 mile to the marina! We will definitely be back and in search of a Mahi-mahi next time! Just no ice cream for the kid pre-trip next time!

Amazing Crew, Beautiful Boat, and a First-Class Fishing Experience in Cancun
8 Hour Trip on February 21, 20262 adults

Here's a polished review you can use (feel free to adjust tone or length): --- We had an absolutely fantastic experience on our fishing charter in Cancun! From start to finish, the captain and crew were incredible — professional, friendly, and clearly very experienced. The boat was beautiful, extremely clean, and well organized, with top-quality gear that made fishing comfortable and exciting. Even when some of us started feeling a bit seasick, the crew went above and beyond to make sure we were okay. They were attentive, supportive, and constantly checking in, offering helpful recommendations and anything we needed to feel better. Their care and hospitality truly stood out. Overall, it was an amazing day on the water. We couldn't have asked for a better team or a better experience. Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a great fishing adventure in Cancun! 🎣🌊

Great experience with Samaki II Charters Cancún! From start to finish, the crew was professional and knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to land one tuna and three sailfish. The captain and crew worked nonstop—great communication, excellent teamwork, and they made sure everyone onboard had a chance to be part of the action. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, and the crew made the trip both exciting and safe. Whether you're an experienced angler or a first-timer, this charter delivers. If you're looking for serious offshore fishing in Cancún, Samaki II Charters is the way to go.

Best Fishing Adventure!
6 Hour Trip - 1:00 PM on December 26, 20252 adults3 children

We highly recommend Enrique and his team. It was very easy to chat with Enrique prior to the trip with any questions and he responded immediately. The boat had everything you need for a good day of fishing. We weren't able to bring food and I asked Enrique if he could supply us with sandwiches and he put together an excellent lunch for us. We asked to fish for barracuda and caught 7! It was so exciting and everything we were hoping for. Thank you to Entique's team for an amazing memorable experience! We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an ocean fishing experience.

Capt. Enrique has been fishing since he was a kid. For him, being on the water feels like a second home. He's started chartering 16 years ago but has been an avid angler for over 2 decades. Today, the captain loves to share his skills and experiences with other people by taking them fishing himself. The captain also loves participating in tournaments and has over the years had a lot of success competing. Nowadays, he enjoys taking people out on trips and helping them fall in love with fishing and Cancun.
