If you're ready to have fun fishing in Oranjestad, book a trip with RW fishing charters and snorkeling.

Around here the fishing is popular for Great Barracuda, Bonito, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Jack Crevalle, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Little Tunny (False Albacore), Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo, Blackfin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, and more with any luck.

On these trips, you can expect to troll using heavy tackle.

Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are also a good idea so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

You'll step aboard a 24' Center console that can carry up to 3 passengers. It has all the essentials, you'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures.

You can't go wrong when you bring sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. Time to make it happen, with RW fishing charters and snorkeling!

fantastic experience!
Half Day morning Trip on April 6, 20262 adults

we had a great time on our fishing charter with Rene! it's so rare to find a private charter for a party of 2, so that we already a huge plus. Was it crazy windy and rough the day we fished, not exactly ideal conditions? Yes! Did we catch anything super big? No, but we did get a barracuda for dinner(s) and saw flying fish and a frigate bird up close and personal! Was the music playlist fantastic? Oh yeah! :-) did we have an absolutely fantastic time? YES! we'd book again in a heartbeat!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely incredible day on the water with Captain Renee!
Half Day morning Trip on October 15, 20252 adults

We had the BEST fishing experience in Aruba with Captain Renee. From the moment we stepped on the boat, he made us feel like family. He's kind, easy to talk to, and truly passionate about what he does. We caught 3 mahi mahi, and when we got back, he personally filleted them at the Bucuti Yacht Club and had the restaurant there cook our catch — it was absolutely delicious! What really stood out was how much effort he put into making it a perfect day. He never stopped trying to get us on fish and went above and beyond in every way — he even dropped us off right at our resort on the way back so we didn't have to get a taxi. He's knowledgeable and thoughtful, and he made the trip unforgettable, even taking us under a plane coming in for landing just for the experience — so cool!

Magnificent experience!
Half Day morning Trip on October 29, 20252 adults

We tried offshore fishing for the first time. We absolutely loved the experience! We caught a mahi-mahi and a barracuda. The captain was perfect: on time, gave us great explanations, filleted our fish beautifully, and was very safety-conscious. In short, we're very happy we did this. As a bonus, the fish is excellent! I highly recommend this trip with Renee

Great day with Capt Renee catching tuna
Half Day morning Trip on October 3, 20253 adults

Capt Renee knowa what he is doing and had us out catching a good number of tuna. the elusive wahoo remained elusive but me and my two friends had a great time fishing along the southwest of the island. Learned a lot from cap too and he cleaned up the fish as soon as we got back and sent us on out way with lots of fillets. Totally recommend to anyone who is interester in fishing in and around Aruba.

Started fishing way back in 1989 when I was 9 years old in a wooden boat, and I never stopped. After finishing high school I started to work in the Oil & Gas fishing on my off days. In July 2023 I quit my well-paid job and RW Water Sports was born. Today RW Water Sports brings many people to snorkeling and fishing.
