Sunrise Charters N.V.
Sunrise Charters is operated by Captain Marcelino De Jesus, the owner and his crew, a fourth-generation Aruban fisherman. He is always looking forward to showing his guests the very best of what Aruba’s famous fishing grounds have to offer.
You will be fishing aboard “Caroline,” a very comfortable 31’ boat whose hull will tackle Aruba’s choppy waters with reliability and dedication. Not only will it provide a stable ride, but it also has ample shade cover and seating, as well as an enclosed toilet. These things help to make it so your whole family can be comfortable throughout the trip.
Join the extremely friendly crew for a unique fishing experience, where you can expect to target species such as Barracuda, Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Grouper, Snapper, and many others. You will be fishing with people who are not only extremely good at what they do, but who also love sharing their passion for fishing with people who come aboard the boat.
The boat has everything you need for a fun day of fishing, including rods, reels, and terminal tackle. Not only that, but you’ll have complimentary soft drinks and snacks on longer trips, and the crew will clean and fillet your catch after the trip. The only thing missing here is you!
So if you already have a date in mind, book a package to your liking and enjoy your next fishing adventure with Sunrise Charters!

4 Hour Deep Sea Fishing Trip (AM)
Sunrise Charters Offshore Fishing was great!
My wife and I had a pleasant time fishing! We booked a half day trip and it did not disappoint. The boat stayed clean and the crew knew what to do all the time. The seas were probably 4-6’ swells and it was very windy. It was no problem for the boat captain as he maneuvered the boat in the seas to make for the best trip under the circumstances. We would definitely use this charter Sunrise Charter in Aruba again. Thank you Sunrise Charters! Bobby and Shawna Bates

6 Hour Deep Sea Fishing Trip (AM)
6 Hour Deep Sea
Amazing charter! Captain reached out to me right away to confirm the trip and a time to meet at the dock. The boat is well maintained and very spacious even with 2 fighting chairs. The crew was fantastic, talk about knowing the waters. They tried hard to put us on fish, constantly rigging up new lures and cutting different baits to find what the fish want, in no time it paid off, small Blackfin and Bonita kept the rods bent all morning followed by a mahi. Rounded it off with a nice Wahoo on the hand line on the way back to the dock. Overall the best Caribbean Charter I have been on. I can’t recommend it enough, I will be back to fish again!

4 Hour Deep Sea Fishing Trip (PM)
Great Fishing!!!
As this was our first trip to Aruba, I was not sure what to expect. We fished a four hour offshore trip in the afternoon with my 10 year old, and a few friends. We left the dock promptly at 1 o’clock with Captain Marcelino and the mate aboard the Caroline. We immediately hooked into a mutton snapper on the troll which I had never seen before. We continued to troll, and the captain found several barracuda, a beautiful wahoo, and a couple of great blackfin tuna. We did lose one of the black tuna to the tax man (shark) but it was still a great trip. The seas are pretty rough at the north end of the island but the captain worked hard to keeps us all comfortable and on the fish. We returned with 7 barracuda, 2 blackfin tuna, a wahoo, and a mutton snapper. We kept part of our catch and walked right up the dock to nos Clubhuis grill and the cooked up our fresh catch. It was a trip my 10 year old will never forget

4 Hour Deep Sea Fishing Trip (AM)
Great trip
We booked a 4 hour trip. We left in time and the crew was very friendly. It was just my son and I and we had a great time. There was plenty of room on the boat for many more people. The boat was clean and comfortable. With the time and the weather we only went a mile out but this was good to make sure my son didn’t get motion sickness. We ended up with 5 bites and landed 2 good size king fish. This left plenty of fish for us for our group of 6 at the hotel for dinner. Thanks for a great time for my son on his birthday

4 Hour Deep Sea Fishing Trip (AM)
Great Time - 4 hour morning trip
Our family of 6 had a great time. Want to venture out further off the coast, but the captain and first made saw the concern on some of our kids faces with the big waves. We turned around and headed for calmer waters. Caught a couple nice mahi-mahi’s, and a nice king mackerel. The crew was very good about making sure my kids had a good time, which was the most important for me. When we got back to dock, it looked like we were the only boat that had caught fish. I would definitely recommend these guys and would happily charter with them again!
