Brito Yachts – La Pichona

Let Brito Yachts show you the treasures that hide in the waters of Dominican Republic. Based in La Romana, Captain Ricky runs fishing trips year round and helps you have an unforgettable day on the water. There’s no doubt that enjoying the sun at the beach is great but when you’re ready for something new and exciting, there’s no better way to do it, than to go on a fishing adventure.

Hop aboard "La Pichona," Capt. Ricky’s 33’ Sea Ray boat that accommodates up to 6 guests. This spacious cruiser has everything you need for a comfortable ride, even if some group members aren’t enthusiastic about fishing. There’s an enclosed cabin with A/C, a private bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, and plenty of lounge space. You can relax and boost your tan, while others are catching lunch.

Speaking of fish, there are lots of tasty species swimming around. You can target Snapper, Mahi Mahi, Barracuda, or even Marlin and Swordfish. The species that you can keep can be cleaned and fried on the spot. This is the advantage of full day trips, since you get to enjoy your catch immediately and there’s also enough time to visit Palmilla beach and go snorkeling or swimming.

You’ll be provided with Shimano rods and reels, a variety of lures, and fresh bait. Your fishing license is covered by the crew and they’ll also prepare soft drinks. Feel free to bring your own beverages and snacks if you wish.

Brito Yachts has trips for any skill level. Even if this is your first time holding a rod, you can land a fish and have a great time! Take a trip with your friends and family and make some long-lasting memories!

Captain Ricky is the boat owner and he sometimes runs the trips. He grew up in the area and started fishing when he was a kid. When he's not guiding the guests, the captain on your trip will be his brother Angel or Miguel Brito, equally experienced and knowledgeable fisherman.
