The small island of Aruba could be called a fisherman's paradise. Surrounded by deep waters thanks to a steep drop off close to the island's shores, you can find a variety of game fish just minutes away from the harbor. Take a trip aboard Thaisa II to experience the thrill of fishing in Aruba with an enthusiastic crew that will do everything to put you on the fish.
Thaisa II is a 36' Bertram flybridge boat. This boat retains its original features that gave Bertram its respected name in the sportfishing world, while keeping up to date with safety appliances surveyed every 6 months to ensure the safety of everyone on board.
Powered by twin Cummins engines, the boat will take you to the best fishing spots quickly and dependably, while also being a comfortable vessel to fish off. With a television in the living area, 3 beds for relaxing and a galley with a sink, the boat also features a large deck with three fighting chairs so everyone can be part of the action.
Whether you want to troll for game fish, bottom fish, or simply go snorkeling around the island, the crew aboard Thaisa will work hard to make sure your trip is one to remember. With deep water only a few minute's boat ride from the harbor, you could be in with a chance of catching fish right from the start of your trip.
With potential catches including Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, and King Mackerel, this is a recipe for a sportfishing trip you will never forget.

The crew was awesome and full of personality. They did a great job getting everyone involved and making sure we were having a good time throughout the trip. We booked a 4-hour trip and went about 5 miles offshore. The water was pretty choppy, so if you’re prone to seasickness, I’d recommend taking something beforehand. We got hooked up pretty quickly on a nice-sized sailfish, which Jay helped us land. That ended up being the only fish we caught, so if you’re looking to increase your chances, it definitely wouldn’t hurt to book a longer trip! Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish, and we’d definitely recommend it!

Hi Thanks for the review Regards
We had an amazing day on the water. Jay, the first mate, and his captain were excellent from start to finish. Their teamwork, knowledge, and upbeat personalities made the entire experience smooth, fun, and memorable. They kept us on the fish all day, and we ended up catching three different species, which made the trip even more exciting. Jay was attentive and encouraging, and the captain knew exactly where to go to keep the action steady. The boat was well‑run, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the crew made sure we had everything we needed for a successful trip. Highly recommend booking with them — you’ll walk away with great memories and a cooler full of stories.

Hi Thank you for the review Regards
Its called fishing, not catching as the saying goes, but today we caught 6 Bonita (1 we used for bait) and 2 Mahi. Jared has 15 years of experience and kept 4 to 5 baited lines in the water at all times. All the charters are in contact with each other via radio trying to tract the bait fish and then find the big fish. 3-4 boats could be seen at any times all in our vicinity. Other boats today caught nothing. Expect to reel a 100yds worth of line if you have a fish on as the bait is far from the boat. Dont make the guide reel them in for you, then you are watching, not fishing. Trolling seems to be the choice for all the boats, not bottom fishing. We opted for 6hr tour to better our odds but bite ended by 3rd/4th hr. This boat is old and ugly, but with an experienced crew maybe best to catch fish on the water. I would recommend these guys if you are more into catching fish than a pretty boat.

Hi Thank you for the review Regards
Captain Joel and crew Jay were fantastic. Cindy assisted with booking and was also great. Overall the trip ended with a cooler filled with fish: mahi mahi, bonitos, tuna, and also caught and released a nice sized sailfish. Captain kept us on the fish the entire time - 10/10 would recommend.

Hi Thank you for the review Regards
Capt Joelle and first mate J worked hard trying to put us in fish. did a 6 hour morning trip on Thaisa. Her glory days are behind her, but she had 3 captains chairs and a big cover in rear. we got 2 good bites early in trip but didnt land anything. after a slow 2 hours looking all over for fish we hooked onto a 60-70 sailfish and after about 20-25 minutes brought this beauty on the boat and released her. all in all a good trip just a slow day all around didnt see much on dock from other boats when we got back. the guys worked hard ans we appreciated it.
