It might seem impossible to make your Aruban vacation even better. Tropical beaches, crystal water, and sunshine all day – what more could you ask for? Take things to the next level by spending a day with 'Tropic Charters' and see just how exciting things get when you go beyond the shoreline!

Hop aboard a 42' Ocean Yachts convertible, which can accommodate up to 6 guests. This spacious fishing machine was restored in 2019 and is equipped with the latest navigational electronics. She also features twin 450 HP Detroit engines that get you where you want to go in no time.

To make your stay on the boat even more comfortable, there's a fully functional kitchen, a private bathroom, a huge lounge area, and two bedrooms with king-sized beds. This beautiful vessel is literally a floating house equipped with top-notch fishing gear!

You'll go after Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo, and Barracuda in these productive waters. It all depends on the season, your angling skills, and sometimes a little luck. Your captain is also happy to clean enough catch for you to take home for dinner at the end of the trip.

You'll be provided with Penn reels, Scalibur rods, and a variety of lures. There are already some soft drinks on the boat, but feel free to bring your own beverages and food. Anglers of all skill levels and families with children are welcome! Kids must be at least 3 years old!

Pick a trip with Tropic Charters and enjoy your vacation to the fullest!

Great Day on the Water
3/4 Day Trip on January 2, 20262 adults

My wife and I had a great trip with Kenny and Dennis. The boat was great and easily handled the waters around aruba. you could tell they used quality gear and had years of fishing experience that they were happy to talk about and share. They worked hard to make sure we were on the fish and always had a fresh bait in the water. Best of all we got to catch some fish. We ended the day with three bonito and two nice wahoo. We hooked into two additional wahoo thoughout the day, but they got off before we could get them into the boat. Next time I'm in Aruba I will definitely be getting in touch with Kenny and Dennies to book another trip.

Reported catch:
Wahoo

Couldn't ask for a better crew.
Half Day Trip (AM) on May 27, 20266 adults

What a great day. They made sure we had everything we needed for a great day on the water. When we weren't catching fish they we give us a history lesson of Aruba. Kenny and Dennis didn't leave us disapointed. Great since of hummor. At the end they sent us to a one of a kind little restaurant to cook our catch. If we make it down here again I will make sure to go fishing with them again.10 out of 10 trip.

Reported catch:
King Mackerel (Kingfish)

Great trip with the 1st mate and captain.
Half Day Trip (AM) on May 19, 20262 adults

The seas kicked our butts a bit. But nobody controls mother nature. As the son of a boat captain I have caught fish in many different methods. The 1st mate had a rig called a rosary. I hand lined a 17 pound Whooo in. It was definitely a life experience. The 1st mate Dallas has an amazing life story. You should ask about it. Good luck aboard and remember no bananas are allowed on board the vessel.

Reported catch:
Wahoo

Thank You so much Aaron !!!
