Burton lll Sport Fishing offers a perfect way to experience the highlight of your vacation. Join Captain Mario, a 3rd generation fisherman, who's been catching fish in the area since he was only 4 years old. For years, he has been showing these waters to other people, teaching them different ways to get to their trophy, and helping them to enjoy their day to the max. Now it's time for you to experience the same.

It all starts on a 28' Nava boat that accommodates up to 4 guests. This center console is powered by twin 60 HP Mercury engines and reaches the speed of 26 knots. The boat features everything you'll need for a successful day on the water, such as a fighting chair, a live bait tank, outriggers, and navigational electronics. For more comfort, there's also a private toilet.

The trips range from short inshore tours to full day big game adventures. You can go after Jack Crevalle, Snapper, Roosterfish, and Mackerel, or take a challenge and target Mahi Mahi, Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo, Barracuda, and many more. If fishing is not the only thing you want to do, there's also an option to combine it with snorkeling and island hopping.

It's very easy to get ready for your trip - just pack some food and sun protection. Everything else is covered by the crew, including your fishing licenses, equipment, and bottled water. The crew will also clean your catch after the trip, so feel free to bring your cooler.

Burton III Sport Fishing has never-ending adventures, as they tend to spend every day on the water. One of those days can easily be reserved just for you. All you need to do is say when you're coming.

5 Stars – Incredible Fishing Trip & Freshest Ceviche Ever
4 hours fishing trip on May 15, 20264 adults
Had an amazing experience on today's fishing charter. The boat was extremely comfortable, spacious, and equipped with top-quality gear — all Avet setups. Mario and Shorty were both fantastic and made the trip even better. One of the highlights was the fresh ceviche they made with the fish we caught. The mango added the perfect sweet balance and it was some of the best ceviche I've had. Highly recommend this charter and I will definitely be back!

6 hours trip - Inshore on February 18, 20262 adults
Mario was very good at putting us onto the Bonita. I booked a 6 hour trip and we went about 10 miles north in the bay. Trolling was tough all day but he started seeing the Skipjacks surfacing and quickly switched tactics to sight casting while still trolling. We landed 2 and missed several. Mario made us fresh Ceviche on the boat which was amazing. He was constantly monitoring other captains and talking with his families other boats. Not many were catching that day. Next time I will come int the fall when the Mahi are closer into the bay and also book a 8 hour trip to get a little further out of the bay past the island. It was a great day with well maintained and safe equipment.

Enjoyable Trip Despite the Fish Taking a Day Off
8 hours trip-offshore on January 19, 20261 adult
Burton Fishing, and particularly Mario and Luis, delivered a great experience...my first off-shore fishing trip. Regrettably, the fish decided to stay largely away that day - and not just for us apparently - and I lost a big, beautiful dorado at the boat. I didn't go home skunked though and was able to provide for dinner that evening. The guides did an excellent job, were very helpful throughout, patient with a novice, and simply wanted to be sure that I had a most enjoyable time. I learned a lot from them. The day was a highlight for me and would strongly recommend Burton to others - am looking forward to my next trip with them already.

6 hour combo tour with Mario
6 hours fishing snorkel beach on February 26, 2026
We had such an amazing experience! We went snorkeling at the beach and fishing, and everything exceeded our expectations. The staff were so pleasant, professional, and made us feel comfortable the whole time. I even caught my first fish, which made the trip extra special! The snorkeling was incredible — we saw so many beautiful fish and marine life. Mario was especially accommodating and professional. He made sure everything ran smoothly and that we had the best possible experience. Highly recommend this tour — we would absolutely do it again!

4 hours fishing trip on February 28, 20262 adults
Capt Mario was awesome. He was able to pick up and drop off right from our resort beach saving a 1.5 mile walk or taxi to the marina. The fishing was great. Mario spoke English, was very pleasant, and worked hard to get us fish and we got them. Skip jacks and some huge jack crevalle. Boat and tackle was new and in great shape. Mario surprised us by making a tasty snack of ceviche with one of our skip jacks. Thank you so much for a great day out.
