Captain Rogel Sanchez
Captain Rogel Sanchez
Unearth some of the gems of the Caribbean with Suya Tours. Head out from San Pedro and discover a world of diverse fishing. From inshore fly fishing to reef fishing offshore, and even the chance to go snorkeling, there’s no end to the fun you’ll have – all the while learning about the stunning nature of Belize.
Captain Rogel Sanchez is a native to the area. A passionate fisherman and Belizian, he promises to show you an authentic local fishing experience. He’ll take you to all the best fishing spots, and will even help you cook up your catch on a full day trip.
Light and nimble, the 25’ custom-built center console will carry you comfortably across the shallow waters, and she can take on the choppy waters, too. There’s plenty of space for up to 5 guests, while 2 people can engage in fly fishing adventures. Capt. Rogel will provide plenty of drinks and there’s a toilet on board, so you won’t worry about getting caught short.
When it comes to fishing, you’ll use the latest rods and reels along with live bait and a range of artificial lures. The shallow waters are home to some of the world’s most sought-after inshore fish. Test your skills on the fly against Tarpon, Permit, Bonefish, and more. These tough-fighting monsters will be a challenge for any angler, so make sure to bring your A-game.
Head out to the reefs and discover a range of exciting and delicious fish. Bottom fish these productive waters and land yourself a tasty treat for dinner. From Snappers and Groupers to Jacks, Barracuda, and even Mahi Mahi, there’s no end to what you can catch. Get ready to fill the boat!
On full day trips, you’ll break up the day by heading to the beach and grilling up your catch. Make sure not to fill up too much, though, as an afternoon of snorkeling lies ahead, and you’ll have some fish left over for dinner. Your captain will clean and fillet your catch, so head to a beachside restaurant and devour the fruits of your labor.
Hop aboard Suya Tours and hunt for treasure!

Full Day Beach Cook
A blast in the Caribbean!
Super fun trip began immediately as we watched the crew catch bait to start us off. Then it was off to snorkeling in the beautiful crystal clear waters. We fished for some time to catch our lunch and we seemed to have bites on almost every cast. We then got taken to a secluded location where we got to swim for a while. Had to come back and end early because a storm was rolling in but the crew came back to our place to cook for us and it was delicious! Captain Rogel and "Burger" were excellent and really took care of us. We all had a great time!

It doesn't get better than Capt Rogel and 1st mate Burger
It would be hard to imagine two more fun and fish filled days on the water than the ones Captain Rogel and his first mate Burger gave us. They're friendly, entertaining, first-rate teachers and experienced professionals who know the water and put us at ease immediately. On day one the 4 of us boated more snappers and mackerel than we could count, which Burger turned into a delicious beach BBQ lunch, and the captain gave me and my son a flyfishing lesson for the hundreds of bonefish cruising the flats just off the beach. We ended the afternoon taking our time at a great snorkeling site. We had so much fun we had to book again, this time for a day of snorkeling with lunch in Caye Caulker. Burger picked us up early and got us to the popular snorkeling sites before the crowds showed up and we then headed for Caye Caulker. A gorgeous day in and out of the water. I also have to mention that my son left his watch on the boat and the captain went out of his way and drove back into town to get it back to us that evening. Book Captain Rogel, you will not be disappointed.

Half Day Trip – Fly Fishing (MAX 2)
My favorite guide
First trip with Rogel was flyfishing for bonefish. I'm an intermediate flyfisher, friend beginner. This was a physical and mental challenge for us Colorado girls not used to distance casting /ocean. He was an excellent teacher and extremely patient and supportive. He worked hard to give us chances and some hard fought success. :) I had so much fun I booked him again with another friend for half day reef fishing/lobster spearfishing later in the week. Again i appreciated how he sized us up/pushed us. I think it was our best day in Belize. Conch, lobster and snapper --more than we can eat. Lots of smiles and laughs. Thanks Rogel, I will be back. Book without hesitation.

Half day reef fishing trip with Rogel and Burger
Had a great half day reef fishing trip catching plenty of snapper and Spanish mackerel with Rogel and Burger. They were very entertaining and we started catching fish right away at the first spot they picked. I'd definitely recommend them for reef fishing and I'm now going to try fly fishing with Rogel in a couple days!

Half Day Spearfishing
Best Captain and Crew.
Second trip with Rogel. We reef fished one day and spear fished on the second trip. We caught over 30 snapper on a half day trip. Rogels knowledge and experience separates him from other charter Captains we used in the past. He did a great job teaching my two boys how to spear fish and each of them we able to get fish. His first mate Burger (nickname) was very entertaining and made sure we comfortable on the boat. Anyone that books with them will not be disappointed.
