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!

We took our family of five — three kids ages 8, 10, and 13 — out with Captain Marcelino and first mate Alexander on a 4-hour deep sea AM trip and it completely exceeded every expectation we had. The catch alone was unreal for 4 hours: 8 tuna, 1 barracuda, and 1 king mackerel. But the moment that made this trip truly special was when our 10-year-old daughter Remi caught her very first fish ever. Captain Marcelino and Alexander made that moment everything it should have been — and Alexander was absolutely amazing with all three of our kids the entire time. Patient, fun, and genuinely invested in making sure they had the best possible experience on the water. The boat was in great shape, Captain Marcelino clearly knows these waters inside and out, and the whole crew made a family of five feel completely taken care of from start to finish. We were back at the marina by 11 AM with a full cooler and memories that will last a lifetime. We grilled the fresh catch that same night. It doesn't get more full-circle than that. If you're going to Aruba with kids and on the fence about a fishing charter — Sunrise Charters with Captain Marcelino and Alexander is the one. Five stars without hesitation. 🎣🌴
I had never been deep sea fishing before and honestly did not know what I was getting into. The captain and crew were great, handled everything, and clearly knew these waters well. We got a hit almost immediately after the lines went in, which set the tone for the whole morning. By the end of the trip we had caught 2 mahi mahi, 2 king mackerel, and a barracuda. We saw other boats come back empty, so walking away with 5 fish felt pretty incredible. The crew cleaned and packaged our share for us to take back and we headed home with enough fresh fish to cook dinner for four people that night at our rental. If you are in Aruba and even a little curious about trying deep sea fishing, just go. We are already talking about doing it again.

We had an amazing day fishing. Marcelino did a great job putting us on fish and Alexander did an amazing job making sure that we landed every fish and that we had a great time. We caught 4 fish, all different species! If you have the chance, book a trip with them...you won't regret it!

Had a great time on the Caroline with Captain Marcelino and Geo. Both were knowledgeable, super friendly, and made sure we had the help we needed to catch some great fish. Water was a little rough, but we managed to catch a really nice Wahoo and Baracuda. Boat was super clean (including bathroom) and was very comfortable. Brought our share of the catch to Nos Clubhuis next to the pier and they made us a delicious meal. Highly recommend!
Todays trip was outstanding, huge thanks to Capt. Rob and Alex. The boat was well-equipped, with shade and ice cold water if needed while having plenty of room to fish. First Mate Alex was enthusiastic, funny, helpful, and kept the energy up during the brief lull of catching fish. His positive attitude and great vibe made a welcoming experience for my two boys (7 & 4 years old) first time deep sea fishing. Capt. Rob was very patient and helpful with my 4 year old son. Showed him some tips and kept him on the rod, catching the most fish of us all. Todays trip was outstanding, huge thanks to Capt. Rob and Alex.

Today was an unforgettable, seamless experience from start to finish. Could not have asked for a better day out fishing.

Fishing is what I love to do. I've been doing it since 1989 with a lot of love, passion, and a lot of patience. Since I was 12 years old, I have been fishing. It was my great-grandfather who taught me everything about fishing and I am very grateful for it. Thanks to that I am a 4th generation master fisherman. I also enjoy participating in fishing tournaments and I have been placed 1st place once, 2nd place two times, and 3rd place one time. I'll always keep participating in future tournaments. Waking up every day and doing what I love is a blessing. Atte: Captain and Owner Marcelino
