We had a great morning on the water with captain TK and deck hand Manuel. Everything ran smoothly and on time. We caught a fair amount with help and support on hand from the team at all times. This was my second trip with this charter over two years and I would highly recommend them. They cleaned and packaged our entire catch after the trip.
thank you so much for an awesome review. and stunning pictures hope we see you again soon
What a perfect day!! The parking was easy to find and safe. The crew were friendly and welcoming. We started out on our trip in an absolutely spotless boat! I've done many trips and often boats are a little messy, this one was really clean. It has a cabin where you can sit out of the wind/sun if you should so choose. The sea was quite unsettled at the start but gradually settled through the day. Many humpbacked whales were spotted during this trip which was an added bonus. However, the main reason for this trip was to catch fish, and fish we caught! Tk, our skipper, and our deck hand, Colin, were excellent!! Baiting, placement, advice and teaching throughout! When i caught my sea salmon the excitement on the boat was infectious with high fives all around! A thoroughly enjoyable day which ended too soon!! (6 hour trip) I highly recommend Blue Ray, stop thinking about it - just book it!! Its incredible! My only regret is that I don't live closer to do it all again!
This was an amazing trip. Caught some nice red romans, but the other fish were a bit shy. The crew was amazing and cleaned our catch afterwards. They showed our newbies nicely how to use the reels. Experience i would really redo! Thank you all!
thank you so much for your lovely review
Awesome day spent out on the ocean. Caught the fish that we were hoping for (including a Striped Marlin ... caught & released). Fantastic crew & captain. Boat in great condition as well as all equipment. Highly recommended.
thank you so much for review
When we arrived at the boat early in the morning, we were warmly greeted by the crew. We had a fantastic fishing trip and caught a good number of fish. If you ever have the chance to be in Durban, take advantage of it and book this fishing trip! Everything went perfectly, from booking to execution! A big thank you again to Aquanautical Adventures! ;-)
thank you so much that is such a nice review
