Mako Tours Bonaire is located at Club Nautico Marina, on the main boulevard in Kralendijk, and offers to show you a proper fishing experience. We go far, and we go big when we talk fishing.
We recommend setting out at 4:00 AM, just before sunrise, to make the most of the prime fishing hours. Our trip begins with a high-speed run offshore to one of the island’s FADs (fish aggregating devices), where we jig for tuna during their most active feeding time. As the morning progresses and the tuna bite slows, we switch to a variety of techniques—such as trolling and bottom fishing—to keep the action going. Our captain, born and raised on the island, brings not only professional skill but also an intuitive knowledge of the local waters, ensuring a focused, motivated, and truly unforgettable fishing adventure.
Our fishing charters are true extreme fishing experiences, lasting a minimum of 6 hours to reach prime offshore spots and explore different techniques. These trips are best suited for guests in good health, so we kindly recommend that young children (below 12 years old), infants, and those who may find a long day on the ocean challenging choose an alternative excursion instead.
The catch: We often catch yellowfin tuna, blackfin tuna, wahoo, mahi-mahi, rainbow-runner, marlin, sailfish. During bottom fishing we catch: queen snapper, red snapper, yellow-tail snapper, amberjack, grouper, etc. Fishing for sword-fish is also possible upon request.
Our clean and well-maintained boat provides high quality fishing gear and tackle, coolers with ice, traditional local tools, brand-new engines, space to cool off in the shade.
The catch is divided 3 ways: crew, boat and guest. The guest has the choice of which species they prefer to keep, and the captain will fillet and bag it for you free of charge.
