Are you ready for a trip of a lifetime, with a charter specializing in deep sea fishing? Then join Santa Elena Fishing Charter today for an adventure you’ll never forget. When the fish start to bite you’ll get such a rush reeling them in.
Your captain Jose Miguel for the day will be a local who has fished these waters his whole life. All the staff on the boat speak English and Spanish, meaning you'll have no trouble communicating.
Step on board an American-built 42’ Mainship boat. This vessel can comfortably fit 7 anglers fishing at once. The twin 365 HP Yanmar engines will get you to the fishing grounds before you know it. The captain’s extensive knowledge of the area will do the rest, helping you land your next trophy-size catch!
The ride out to the fishing grounds will be in comfort – there are air conditioning and a multimedia system, as well as a restroom, kitchen, and beds. When the fishing starts, the flybridge and fighting chair will help you in spotting the fish and reeling them in respectively.
Deep sea trolling is the name of the game in Punta Cana! Depending on how far out you go, you’ll target Blue and White Marlin, Wahoo, Kingfish, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Barracuda, and Tuna. If it’s your first time deep sea fishing, the first mate will assist you and help you reel in catch properly.
Included in the price are top quality rods and reels. These won’t let you down when reeling in your dream catch. During each trip, you can use the free bar that's filled with soft and alcoholic drinks, and on longer trips (6 and 8 hours), you'll be provided with lunch.
Santa Elena Fishing Charter support team works 24/7 and will be assisting you from the first minute of your booking until the point you're back in your hotel. Book with them and experience the best fishing trip you've ever had!

3/4 Day Big Game Fishing
Elena and the crew were wonderful and especially great at communicating with us before the trip. We went on a 7 hour day toward the end of November and we weren't sure what the weather would be like, but Elena watched the weather closely and offered to be very flexible with us to make sure we would have the best experience. She was also very kind and helpful when one of our party got sea sick. We got into some mahi and the captain Miguel did a great job of keeping us on them. We also caught a good-sized wahoo. The lagoon experience at the end of the trip is not to be missed. They cooked our catch for lunch and we had a great time swimming and watching a storm come in. We have booked trips in lots of places but this was the best experience yet.

Half Day Big Game Fishing (AM)
The fish weren't biting but the crew tried their hardest and ended up with 2 mahi mahi and 1 barracuda. Loved the trip and would definitely go out with them again.

3/4 Day Big Game Fishing
We are a family of 5, with adult kids and 2 girlfriends. The water was a little more rough than anticipated, but everyone managed for the 6 hour excursion! The boat was big enough for our group and everyone caught at least one fish, so all went home satisfied. If you want to keep fish as our group wanted as we were able to cook at our vacation home, be sure to mention from the start. It seemed like it came as a surprise that we wanted to keep some of the catch, even though the website seems to make that obvious! All in all we had a great day and would recommend this charter and will certainly use Elena again when we are back in Punta Cana.

Half Day Big Game Fishing (PM)
We had an amazing time with this crew! We caught 4 barracuda in our short time on the boat and saw a huge pod of dolphins as a bonus! Can't say enough about how great they are with kids. They catered everything to our 8 year-old son and made sure he was having the best time! We all felt very comfortable and they even gave us a little extra time when our arrival transportation was delayed. Elena was always in communication leading up to our trip and answered all of my questions. All around excellent experience!

3/4 Day Big Game Fishing
I scheduled this trip for my Son, daughter in law and grandsons. Elena & crew were very friendly and informative. Elena took care of transportation to and from marina which made it that much easier. When we arrived she was there to greet us. Very attentive to get us aboard safely, including Papa (which is me) as I've recently had back surgery. They were very helpful to me,as well as my grandsons. We had a wonderful day, caught fish (barracuda) 8 in all would've liked to hook up on some dorado or wahoo but apparently they were elsewhere. They worked very hard to stay on fish and as a fisherman I know right time and right place is the luck of the draw. Afterwards Elena even walked with us talking about the trip and visiting until the shuttle arrived. Would definitely recommend them and use them again if we are fortunate enough to be able to return to their paradise!
