    Great day on the water!

    Half Day Deep Sea Fishing (AM) on September 24, 2026 • 2 adults

    I can’t say enough good things about the keep it reel team. Alexandro and his wife were very welcoming cool people.They were transparent with us saying that heavy winds would make it hard to go deep sea fishing but we could go bottom fishing closer to shore and we would catch more.They gave us the option and we chose to bottom fish I think we made the right decision. We lost count of how many fish we caught but tons of big queen trigger fish,grouper and many more different species. The equipment was spectacular and so was the crew!

    Had a great time

    3/4 Day Trip – Deep Sea Fishing on August 18, 2026 • 5 adults

    Alex and his family really do a great job getting things prepared and assisting everyone on the boat. Booked a 6 hour trip, 2/3s of he trip we were deep sea trolling, got a nice Bonita and a couple nice Mahi Mahi, then we bottom fish for the last third and caught several smaller fish, the younger crowd will definitely enjoy that more than just riding and trolling, but the bigger fish are out there deep sea trolling. The fact that they try so hard to make sure you enjoy your trip speaks volumes to how much they care about their family business. Highly recommend if you're in Aruba and wanna go fishing, they will do everything in their power to make sure you catch some fish. Thanks again

    Kind, Fun, and Accommodating—A Top-Notch Fishing Adventure in Aruba

    Half Day Deep Sea Fishing (AM) on June 7, 2026 • 3 adults

    If you are looking for a fishing trip in the area, look no further than Alexandro and his family! They took us out for an awesome 3-hour bottom fishing excursion where we caught plenty of fish. They then took us to a stunning spot to snorkel while they took care of filleting our catch. Everything was ready for us when we returned, and they were so thoughtful to drop us off at a restaurant near our place for an easy taxi pick-up. Such a kind and fun family—we had a wonderful time! Thank you!

    we took our 2 sons and 2 of our grandchildren on an afternoon fishing and snorkeling adventure. we snorkelled Pedernales which was great fun and a neat experience. Then we bottom fished off Palm beach area. They set us up well and instructed us. Dropped lines and immediately caught 2. Over the next hour caught 18 fish. We all had a great time. They filleted 12 we picked and we ate them that night with the rest of the family. It was a great memorable day!

    Amazing day fishing with Keep it Real

    3/4 Day Trip – Deep Sea Fishing on May 23, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had the best day fishing and snorkeling with Alex, Kelly and Lisandro! The waters were choppy but Alex moved a few times to make sure we found a spot! Our family caught so many of all kinds. We had it fileted and then cooked at a restaurant! They were sure to make sure we were happy and had all that we needed during the trip! He even took us to a spot to see Sea Turtles. I highly recommend doing a day with them!! we will be booking with them next trip for sure!

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Incredible Bottom Fishing Experience!

    Half Day Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on November 19, 2025 • 2 adults

    We had such an amazing time on our bottom fishing trip with Alex and his wife Kelly! From start to finish, they were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience feel effortless and fun. My boyfriend and I ended up catching strawberry grouper, triggerfish, yellow grunt, and even an eel — such a thrilling variety! Alex knew exactly where to take us, and Kelly made sure we were always comfortable and having a good time. The atmosphere on the boat was relaxed, safe, and full of great energy. You can tell they truly love what they do and want everyone onboard to have a memorable day. Highly, highly recommend — we would book with them again in a heartbeat.

    Amazing Bottom‑Fishing Trip

    Half Day Deep Sea Fishing (AM) on June 18, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had an incredible day bottom fishing with the family. The captain knew exactly where to go, and the first mate did an excellent job keeping us baited up and later filleting our fish. We caught multiple fish and had nonstop fun. After the trip, we took our catch to Nos Clubhuis, and they cooked it perfectly. The whole experience — from the boat to the table — was outstanding.

    Caught Fish for Dinner!

    Half Day Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on May 17, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had a great time on a 3 hour trip with Captain and crew (Kelly and Lysander). They were very kind and helpful. We started early and caught lots of fish. They cleaned our fish and we took it to Hadicurari (Palm Beach at Marriott) for a wonderful dinner. Would definitely recommend...but start early (6-7 AM) for the best fishing.
