Spend the day with Dopamine Charter and find out what the fishing in Barcelona is all about! With Captain Geronimo at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.

These waters are known for Bonito, Albacore Tuna, Dentex, Amberjack, Bluefin Tuna, Spanish Mackerel, Squid, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Great Barracuda, and more – with any luck, they'll make your reel scream. For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. You're welcome to bring snacks – lucky for you, there will already be some on board!

You'll be casting lines from a 38' Tiara 3800 Open sportfishing vessel with capacity for 8 passengers. It comes with downriggers, a fighting chair, all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Geronimo will supply rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Don't leave home without sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and a hat. Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks available on board.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Dopamine Charter!

Best trip ever!
7h Up to 6 pax / Deep sea on August 2, 20265 adults1 child

We had an unforgettable fishing trip with Dopamine Boat and Captain Geronimo! What an incredible day on the water. We caught some amazing, trophy-sized fish, and Captain Geronimo never gave up until everyone on board was happy. His knowledge, dedication, and passion for fishing made all the difference. If you’re looking for an exciting fishing adventure with someone who truly cares about giving you the best experience possible, this is the trip to book. Highly recommended—we can’t wait to come back!

Amazing experience for adults and children
5h Up to 8 pax Fishing Trip on May 18, 20262 adults2 children

Dopamine Deep Sea Fishing was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The boat was clean, comfortable, and made for a great day on the water. Geronimo was fantastic—fun, engaging, and especially great with the kids, which made the trip even more enjoyable for our family. We had an incredibly successful day, catching over 20 fish, and the highlight was an unforgettable catch-and-release of a 120 lb tuna and the breathtaking views! He made sure everyone had a great time and helped create an experience we'll be talking about for years. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun and memorable fishing trip!

Reported catch:
Bluefin Tuna

Best fishing guide!
3h up to 8pax Family&Friends on March 18, 20263 adults1 child

We booked with Geronimo and had a blast! If ever back in Spain we'll do it again!! Our two boys loved catching the bait fish (caught plenty of those). Then on to the "Big Fish"… We were on top of a tuna multiple times and the thrill of watching the boys chase that tuna was priceless! No tuna but Geronimo was stocked with snacks and drinks for all of us! What a great day to be on the water chasing tuna!

Geronimo Balado
Response from Captain

I'm glad that you enjoy the trip. You are a beautiful family of fishermen. Hope to see you again. Thanks!!!
