Fishing doesn’t get much better than in the Caribbean. Step aboard with Patron Charters and battle it out with Marlin, marvel at Sailfish performing acrobatics, and test your skills and strength to fill the boat with tasty Tuna and Mahi Mahi. All of this takes place in some stunning waters, a stone’s throw from the golden sands of Curaçao, so don’t miss out! 

A native of nearby Bonaire Island, the captain has been fishing these Caribbean waters he was a child, and is a regular tournament competitor. He knows just what it takes to land the biggest fish in the ocean, and will do everything to make sure you do the same.

You’ll also have the added bonus of a fully-fitted fishing vessel. The 31’ Silverton offshore sportfishing boat is a true beast. Strong and powerful, she’ll get you across the choppy waters with ease, keeping you steady as you cast away. Up to 6 guests are welcome aboard to take advantage of the comfortable cabin and spacious deck, and the crew will provide snacks and drinks, and even a full BBQ lunch on full-day trips!

The crew will also set up the trolling lines from the outriggers and downriggers, giving you maximum reach to catch a range of fish. Sit back and enjoy the stunning surroundings before leaping into action at the sound of the screeching reels, as who knows what could be on the end of your line?

Majestic Marlin, stunning Sailfish, tasty Tuna and Mahi Mahi, along with a whole host of tough-fighting creatures like Wahoo and Barracuda can be found here. One thing’s for sure, you’d better be prepared for a thrilling, intense battle and workout, as these creatures won’t give up without a fight.

The crew will clean and fillet your catch at the end of your trip, and you’ll split it with them. You’ll get to head to a beachside restaurant to eat your catch and give them thanks at the same time! If you’re looking for some thrills when in Curaçao, then look no further than Patron Charters. The fishing trip of a lifetime awaits!

Member since June 2019
A native of nearby Bonaire Island, your captain grew up fishing the Caribbean's rich waters with his family. He owes his passion of fishing to his father, who always took him out on the water. When he was 18, he purchased his own first boat and he's not looked back since. Alongside running charters in Curaçao, he still competes in fishing tournaments on his home island, as well as in the annual Wahoo tournament in Curaçao, so he knows just what it takes to land the biggest fish.
