 Km. 2.5 Boulevard Kukulcan, Cancún, QR 77500, Mexico

Chartiers Del Mar welcomes you to one of its premium boats – El Patrón. Based out of the famous fishing town of Cancún in Quintana Roo, Mexico, it will take you on a wonderful trip to the area’s bountiful waters.

Captain Miguel García and his proficient crew will be in charge of your adventure. They are eager to share their trade secrets with guests and will do their best to make sure you get exactly what you want from your trip. With over 28 years in the fishing business in Quintana Roo, Captain Miguel knows the local waters like the back of his hand and is fit to use all the techniques that suit the conditions.

El Patrón is a restored 46’ Ocean Yachts performance fishing boat that can fit 12 guests. It’s powered by twin 450 HP Detroit diesel engines and uses modern navigation gear, outriggers, Penn International downriggers, as well as snorkeling gear. To ensure the best fishing experience possible, the boat is completely rigged with tournament-grade tackle.

Below deck, you’ll find 3 comfortable staterooms with ensuite bathrooms and plenty of room to relax. Your vessel has also got high-quality Hi-Fi to let you fish to your own music.

You’ll be able to try out any fishing technique, with tackle ranging from Penn Carnage II and Shimano Trevala to Penn International V. The crew also uses various lures depending on your target species. The deep blue waters of the Mexican Gulf offer you Blue and White Marlin, Sailfish, Tuna, and more. You can also explore the area’s thriving reefs and chase Snapper, Grouper, Barracuda, and other delicious and elusive species, making your trip even more exciting and productive.

All trips include tackle, live bait, lures, and licenses. The crew will also clean and fillet your catch at the end of the trip. Feel free to bring any food you like in order to stay refreshed.

So whether you’d like a morning fishing on the reef or a 10-hour adventure offshore, you can trust the El Patrón team to get you hooked on that fish of your dreams!

Came down to Cancun for a little vacation and wanted to fish the day away while having a big enough boat for my fiance to enjoy. They crew knocked it out of the park. Trolled for Baracuda and caught 5, then spent the rest of the afternoon anchored of Isla Mujeres swimming while the crew cooked a delicious meal. Finally we cruised slowly back to port and enjoyed the setting sun. Would definitely use this crew again. Huge bonus that they can set up transportation for you so everything is easy. I can't say enough about how great these guys were.

4 Hour Trip (AM) on December 1, 2024

Captain Jorge was a pleasure!!! The entire crew was superb! We had a very large group of all ages and the crew took great care of us and were just simply really nice people at heart. Captain put us right on the BIG fish in no time. The boat was just awesome overall. So very spacious and lots of comfort for those on our trip that weren't interested in fishing. So happy we booked this charter with this crew long before our vacation here in Cancun. Captain Jorge kept in touch with us long before we even arrived in Cancun. Great communication and very professional through and through. Thanks again!!!

My family of 4 went out and we had a lovely day. Those who were less interested in fish were able to tan and relax on the front of the boat with a seating area, and the crew in the back worked incredibly hard to get us on fish. Jorge arranged transportation to and from the hotel for us which was seamless. We caught 3 barracuda and had a wonderful day

We had a great experience. It was a little windy for us, they navigated the storm and we still caught fish! I would highly recommend this charter.

I have done a lot of saltwater fishing trips in the past and the captain and his mates did an amazing job of keeping fresh bait on the line and paying attention to us and our needs. We had a really good time and would book with this charter again..
