East Coast Charters – Elaine

There’s nothing quite like a day out at sea, especially in the turquoise blue waters off the coast of La Romana! Venture out with East Coast Charters Fishing and Captain Domingo, a local pro who’s here to ensure you have an unforgettable day with friends and family.

Hop aboard “Elaine,” a luxurious 47’ Bertram vessel. She’s spacious enough for all 12 of your guests to fish comfortably and relax in the indoor and outdoor areas. Take in the stunning views from the flybridge, relax on the decks, or take a break inside where there’s a kitchen, a full private toilet, and bedrooms.

It’s rod-bending action from start to finish as you troll for pelagic fish including Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, and Wahoo. You’ll definitely want to make use of the fighting chair once you start to feel one of these monsters tugging on your line! Ample live bait kept in the livewell makes your job easier, as does plenty of ice storage for your catch.

Any tasty catch you want to keep, the crew is happy to clean and fillet for you to take back to shore. They provide all of your fishing gear, as well as equipment for snorkeling if you want to jump into the big blue. Sodas, bottled water, and cold beer are also on board for your enjoyment.

Pack your suitcases and get ready to experience epic fishing in La Romana with East Coast Charters Fishing!
