Thank you Henry !
Half Day Fishing Excursion on February 2, 20264 adults

Henry was amazing from the very beginning. Despite difficult conditions — it was extremely windy — he did everything he could to make sure we had a great time. We only caught one fish, but given how unfavorable the conditions were, we were still very happy to have landed that catch. Afterward, Henry took us near a beach so we could enjoy the shoreline and do a bit of snorkeling. He prepared sashimi with the tuna we caught earlier, along with fresh pineapple and various refreshments. It was such a nice touch and allowed us to enjoy the experience even more. We did have a small payment issue due to a miscommunication on the app, but Henry was very understanding and flexible. Sorry again for the inconvenience, and thank you for everything, Henry! Pura Vida 🌴🐟

Yellowfin Tuna Paradise
Snorkel Tour -3-4 beaches on October 11, 20252 adults

My girlfriend and I had a great time going out on the water with Captain Henry. We originally wanted to do fishing + snorkeling, but the weather didn't cooperate (heavy storms overnight = murky water), so we just stuck to fishing. We hooked up pretty quickly - Captain Henry knew exactly where to go to catch some nice tuna. We caught a total of 13 fish over 4 hrs, including 9 yellowfin tuna, 3 skipjack tuna, and 1 rainbow runner. My arms got tired after reeling in fish after fish. We also saw some cool wildlife including sea turtles, dolphins, and sea snakes. Overall was a great experience, Captain Henry is a funny guy with a good attitude. Would highly recommend!

Great morning on the water
Half Day Fishing Excursion on August 19, 20251 adult

Booked a last minute 4 hour trip with Henry. He got us on the fish quickly. When the trolling bite showed down we switched to bottom fishing and caught a couple of nice snapper. Ended the day with a nice yellowfin tuna, which is the fish I most wanted to catch. Also saw mating sea turtles, sea snakes, and dolphins. Henry is very serious about fishing, so make sure that you are very honest with him about your experience and familiarity with the gear. Pura vida!

10/10 time with Henry
Snorkel Tour -3-4 beaches on September 20, 20252 adults

Henry was a wonderful captain who gives you more than "your bang for your buck". We got to go snorkeling, fishing, see sea turtles, and whales; all for under 300 bucks. Fantastic opportunity for anyone who doesn't need every bell and whistle on their fishing yacht. 100% go on a trip with captain Henry, you won't regret it!
