Hi, my name is Joseph, and I am the proud local owner of Roatan Reef Explorer Tours here in Roatan, Bay Island of Honduras.

I've always been passionate about fishing since I was a kid. Being on the ocean and catching fish is the greatest therapy for me; it's like your mind connects with nature, and you become one. Started to fish with my Uncle Earl, back then, when we used a Paddle to get out to the reef and bottom fishing because we couldn't afford an engine. Now here I am offering you the best fishing trips on our island.

Our Boat is a 26ft by 8ft Bayliner modified to our liking with a Yamaha Outboard 200 4 Stroke Eco Friendly
Equipped with 5 Rod holders on the Stern, 2 Outriggers, 6 Rod holders on the T Top, Rod reels, and lures are provided.
Head on board to make it the perfect vessel for your fishing trips: Half Day, Full Day, or Night Fishing. Whether you are an experienced angler or a first timer, we have what you need.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate.

Targeted fish: Dorado (Mahi or Dolphin), Wahoo, Yellowfin and Bluefin Tuna, Barracuda, Bonito, Red Snapper, King Mackerel (Kingfish), and more.

You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Your fishing license for the day is included with the charter boat; simply show up ready for some fishing! Please note that you may need to release some fish due to regulatory requirements. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Don't leave home without sunblock and sunglasses. Drinks will be provided for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks for you on board.

And that's it! Your fishing trip with Roatan Reef Explorer Tours is just a click away.

Joe and his mate, Aaron, were great hosts. Finding Joe at the port was very easy. His van was air conditioned and it was a short drive to the boat. The boat was perfect for the trip. Joe was really nice and personable and easy to make conversation with. I really enjoyed his company and learning about him and the island. Our trip was great and I caught tuna and barricuda! I would absolutely recommend this to anyone for a great fishing experience. As a female solo angler I felt very safe and comfortable. A family joined me on the trip and I would expect that they would have the same great experience.

Half Day Deep Sea Fishing (AM)

We finally realized our lifelong dream of deep-sea fishing while in Roatan for a wedding. What a blast these guys were!!! Joseph truly LOVES his job! I think he'd fish 24 hours a day if he could stay awake. Lol. We were blessed to spend several hours with Joe and Cesar in the beautiful Caribbean waters and caught enough fish to make us deliriously happy. We can't wait to go back!!!! They both have such a great sense of humor it is a pleasure being around them. Cesar even cleaned our fish. You guys are the best!!! We can't wait for our next adventure with you!!

Capt. Joe was born and raised on the island, so he has all the knowledge you could ask for. We landed several fish on our afternoon trip, including a giant barracuda! Pickup, handling, comfort were all A+ with this crew. Highly Recommend!
