Head offshore aboard Balihoo Boat and experience some of the best fishing the Caribbean has to offer. There's a whole other world underwater, so leave the hustle and bustle of the resort behind and come see for yourself. With Captain Ramirez, you'll be in the hands of a true professional. Having run charters since 2004, he says he knows just what's needed for a successful fishing trip, and he can't wait to take you out.
Head offshore aboard a 27' Super Panga saltwater fishing boat. There's plenty of space for a party of 6 to come aboard and fish, and there's enough cover for you to shade away from the blistering sun. Powered by twin 50 HP Yamaha engines, she's a serious fishing vessel. You'll have the edge over every other boat as you make use of the onboard livewell, tuna tubes, outriggers, and fighting chair to maximize your fishing potential.
There's great fish on offer year-round. In the summer, head up to 6 miles offshore and the fish are just monstrous. You'll troll the water tops for huge Billfish like Marlin and Sailfish, and catch a few delicious Mahi Mahis on the way. In the winter, the reefs are where it's at. Bottom fish by jigging to entice the bite of stunning Snappers and Yellowtails, Wahoo, and many more. If you'd like it a bit more hands-on, just let the captain know and you can try spearfishing.
Snorkeling equipment is already on board, so you'll have the opportunity of cooling off in the water while studying the clear, exotic underworld up close. With drinks provided, all you need to do is bring your own snacks, probably some sunscreen, and settle in for a memorable day exploring the Caribbean. The Balihoo Boat is calling you aboard to experience these waters as they deserve to be seen.

We had an awesome time on this fishing charter! We ended up catching 3 mahi mahi, and the whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. The crew was excellent—friendly, knowledgeable, and worked hard to make sure we had a great day on the water. They were helpful throughout the trip and made the experience fun and enjoyable. If you’re looking for a great fishing charter with a professional and friendly crew, I definitely recommend booking with them. We had a great time and would absolutely do it again!
good communication and super good guides really did a great job of trying to accommodate our wishes. From what we heard, Fishing wasn’t great for anyone in the area which is no fault of the guide but they knew what was biting and where the action was. We landed a couple nice Baracuda’s and a medium size grouper so not the trophies we were hoping for but we didn’t get skunked either! we had nice fresh bait caught in a net that morning and as fast as a hook was brought up our guide was already there baiting it up. it was a great time and would use these boys again!
Crew were great and a lot of help, they took us too a few different spots targeting different species of fish. We caught 2 barracuda & 1 Spanish mackerel … got bit off by a monster mahi 😭 lol Took us too a beautiful spot to snorkel which we seen so many fish , a huge friendly stingray and 2 smaller ones too, they really didn’t disappoint. I don’t think you’ll get a better worth of money for what you pay with these guys 100% recommend, especially if you’re looking to do a bit of both (fishing & snorkelling) .
We went out today (late September) and had a great time with Captain Balta and Willy. They told us that fishing has been slow but had a game plan to help us catch some fish. Started out the morning right off the bat with a nice barracuda! My wife got sea sick and they took us to a beach to help for a bit. Got right back on the water and caught two more barracuda! Captain Balta cut us some filet’s to take home. It was a great relaxing time!
We appreciate you taking the time to write a review. Thank you very much.
Had an absolute blast. We were celebrating our honeymoon and they made the trip easy and fun. We started morning off bottom fishing and caught tons of red snapper in under an hour. They fixed us up probably the best meal of the trip with amazing ceviche! They surprised us with a little bottle of bubbly to celebrate too! We spent almost an hour checking out the reef with them guiding us and showing us amazing spots. We saws tons of conk, fish, a stingray, sand dollars, starfish, and so much more. Did a tiny bit of trolling but weren’t catching much then due to weather. Hands down the best day and 100% recommend them for your fishing trip!
