Sunrise Charters N.V. 

This was our third year with Sunrise Charters, and they always get us on the fish! We had another great trip and caught a variety of fish. The boat is fantastic and well maintained, and all of the mates have been excellent. A special thank-you to Captain Marcelino and Mate Alex for another amazing experience! We have zero complaints. This is by far the best money we’ve spent on an experience in Aruba, and we’re already booked for next year! 🎣🌴

What an amazing trip we hooked up in the first 30 min and then it was non stop at 1 point 4 hook ups at once. this boat and crew knows fish and Marcelino knows where to find them. how to target them with the right gear, has the local knowledge and years of expierence on these waters. These guys are the absolute best. I didn’t get my sailfish. but thats just an excuse to come back and keep trying for that trophy. thank you again for a truly memorable time.

We had a great experience with Sunrise Charters. We were three people- 1 adult and a 10 and 13 year old, who are passionate about fishing. First mate Alexander helped the boys with their ocean fishing technique, and they caught lots of fish! He was very calm and patient. The boat and equipment are new, and you can see a difference between this charter and others in terms of the great quality of equipment. We even had some fish to grill at the local cafe next to the pier (staying in a hotel without a kitchen) so the kids could enjoy their fresh catch ! Highly recommend if you want to experience fishing in Aruba.

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.
