Castillo Tours – 48' The Legend
Castillo Tours – 48' The Legend
Castillo Tours is all about finding the fish, having tight lines, and tons of action in the bountiful waters of Puerto Rico. Head to the San Juan Bay Harbor, hop on board, and in just 25 minutes, you will be 2 to 5 miles offshore fishing the “Blue Marlin Alley.”
If you are looking for something different on your next vacation, there is a trip for you. Any passionate angler should “taste” these productive waters at least once in their lives. They are home to various pelagic species depending on the season, such as the likes of Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and Yellowfin Tuna.
The ‘Legend’ is a beautiful 48’ Hatteras that is conveniently located at San Juan Bay Marina. She comes powered by twin motors and has plenty of space for up to 6 anglers. The Legend was overhauled in 2015 and is rigged with electronics and professional accessories. She features all the comforts of home, including an air-conditioned cabin with a TV, a refrigerator, a restroom, a kitchen, sleeping area.
Please check our fishing calendar to see which fishes are in season for the date you are fishing with us. We look forward to accommodating you and sharing an adventure on the high seas!

3/4 Day Trip
Great Trip
Franco and Captain Pitain were excellent. It couldn’t have been easier to arrive at the marina and get going out. Starts out with a beautiful view driving out the Port of San Juan; passing El Morro. It’s a quick drive to the fishing grounds; maybe 30 minutes from the dock to lines in. We went out on an unlucky day, so we did not have much action, but we did catch 1 sailfish. Good stock of drinks and some individual sized bags of chips. Franco was an incredible first mate! Very quick and efficient, fun to talk about and will explain as much or as little as you want about the fishing setup. Captain Pitain also was excellent up at the helm, communicating with nearby boats to try to get us on some fish. Great day in The Legend!

Rough seas but great fishing!
We had another boat booked out of Fajardo for our fishing trip. Due to “big” seas the Fajardo boat cancelled. We were able to book with Castillo on short notice. The boat was large and well maintained. All areas were very clean. The captain was welcoming and proficient but not super talkative. The first mate was very friendly and did an excellent job of baiting lines and landing the fish. The amenities were middle of the road. A good selection and amount of water/soda/beer but only food was a variety of chips. Other boats have had more amenities, like sandwiches, or fewer, like just water. We caught mahi-mahi, wahoo and a sailfish. The first mate cleaned the keepers and we ate well. Arrival was easy, departure was easy and we had a great time despite some rough seas. We would definitely fish with Castillo again.

We had a great time!
My husband and I each brought in a yellowfin tuna weighing 30-35lbs. For us, this was a first! Captain Pitain and Franco were very knowledgeable and friendly. We spent a few hours trolling for billfish with no luck but that's fishing. We enjoyed the day very much!

Rough Waters but we had success
Rough waters but we caught a sail fish. Had to go back early because one of the boys was too seasick to keep going. Captain did call us to tell us before the trip that it was rough out there and we decided to go anyway. I think it was very responsible of the Captain to warn us and let us make our own decision. I really appreciated that.
