🌊 Captain Jesus – Local Fisherman of the Mexican Caribbean 🎣

Since I was a child, I discovered my passion for fishing in the crystalline waters of the Caribbean, and over time, I turned that passion into my profession and lifestyle. I am a local fisherman from Playa del Carmen with extensive experience navigating and exploring every corner of our fishing grounds.

My mission is to share with you the same excitement I felt from my first days at sea: the adrenaline rush of the first bite, the fight with majestic species, and the satisfaction of experiencing an unforgettable moment surrounded by the Caribbean blues.

I am well-versed in the seasons, techniques, and key spots where species such as dorado (mahi-mahi), wahoo, tuna, sailfish, marlin, barracuda, snapper, and many more can be found. My commitment is to provide you with a safe, authentic, and exciting experience, always with the close attention of a local fisherman who loves what he does.

✅ More than a lifetime dedicated to the sea
✅ Experience with all techniques: trolling, bottom fishing, live bait, and sport fishing
✅ 100% focused on making your trip a memorable adventure

Fishing with Jesus Felipe
fishing 3/4 Day Trip on December 31, 20254 adults

Fantastic day of fishing with Captain Jesus. Beautiful catches and a huge barracuda at the end of the session. The captain and his mate are very friendly. Highly recommended.
