High Seas Charters is owned and operated by Capt. Robbie Atwell, a local of Barbados who has been fishing the local waters since the age of 5 has since competed successfully in many local fishing tournaments. He encourages you to come on a charter with him and promises that although you may come as a guest, you will leave as a friend.

You will be fishing aboard the Ocean Hunter, a 42' custom-built sportfishing boat that can easily accommodate up to six anglers. The boat has a spacious cockpit and is equipped with all you need to catch some massive fish, with a range of marine electronics, a fighting chair and outriggers for effective trolling.

Whether you are a complete beginner or a seasoned pro. High Seas Charters will work with you to build the perfect fishing trip.

Very good experience booking this trip . easy to book , very good communication .. efficient pick up and drop off . Felt safe on the boat with Robert and Hatch who know their stuff ! unfortunatley we only caught one small mackerel fish which was dissapointing but this was despite their best efforts ! There are some things no one can control ! Lovely to see barbados coastline from the boat . Thanks Robbie and Hatch .

Full Day Charter 8 hour
Full Day Trip on May 14, 20262 adults

Hi folks! I always recommend a full day charter. This is fishing they may bite in the morning or afternoon but your captain needs time to get you the fish. Captain Robbie and Hatch worked very hard all day and managed to landed a couple of nice Mahi Mahi. The sandwiches Mrs. Atwell made well delicious, thank you to her. I would be honored to recommend Captain Robbie and Hatch on the Ocean Hunter anytime!

Reported catch:
Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)

Awesome family fishing trip
Half Day Trip (PM) on July 8, 20252 adults2 children

Had an awesome fishing trip with Captain Robbie and Hatch. Brought my wife and two children (9yo boy and 6th girl) and everyone got in on the action! Captain Robbie and Hatch took great care of us as we trolled up and down the west side of the island. Caught two ~30+ pound wahoo and several small tuna. Return taxi service was provided which removed any stress from finding the launch point. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxed in shore trip with family or friends. Will definitely sail with Captain Robbie again when we return to Barbados!

Reported catch:
Wahoo
Yellowfin Tuna

Great time fishing
Half Day Trip (AM) on January 17, 20262 adults

Captain Robbie and First Mate Hatch were both top notch. As soon as we got on board we felt welcomed. They explained how the trip would go, described the processes and let us know where to find all we needed on the boat. The snacks and refreshments were readily available. But, best of all, we caught fish. We ended up with 5 wahoo, the biggest was 35-40lbs. Highly recommend Ocean Hunter!

Fun trip, catching fish a bonus
Half Day Trip (PM) on March 13, 20263 adults

Communication with Captain Robbie was excellent from start to finish. We had a wonderful afternoon with Robbie and Hatch. We had warned our grandson that there are no guarantees to catch a fish. He caught 3 tuna and 2 barracuda. He lost 2 fish and I caught a tuna which we kept and ate. Highly recommend booking with Robbie.

Reported catch:
Yellowfin Tuna
