If you plan on fishing in Jan Thiel, look no further than Paranda Boat Trips. Captain Giovanni will be your guide, so you’ll benefit from years of professional experience.

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Amberjack, Great Barracuda, Bonito, (Mahi Mahi), Blue Marlin, Black Marlin, Wahoo, and whatever else is biting. During the trip, you might be trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. Snacks are never a bad idea – luckily, Capt. Giovanni will have some on board!

Your trip begins aboard a 55’ Motor yacht that can carry up to 10 passengers. It has a fighting chair and all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures.

Before coming aboard, you may need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcoholic beverages are quoted separately.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that daydream into a reality with Paranda Boat Trips.
