Jamaica Sailing Adventures

Jamaica Sailing Adventures offers the most unforgettable sailing, fishing, and snorkeling trips in Jamaica. You will enjoy every minute of your trip and leave with amazing memories that will last a lifetime. They are unique in the type of fishing trips they offer because they have a sailboat that you can troll on using fishing rods under sail.

Fishing and sailing will take place aboard the Deja Vu, which is a 40’ Endeavour sloop rigged sailboat. It was built in Largo, Florida and can sleep 6–8 guests in 3 separate cabins. This vessel is powered by a 56 HP Yanmar engine which is maintained continuously. It contains a GPS and a fishfinder, a dual emergency VHF radio, and an AIS.

The boat is spacious with a stateroom that accommodates 2 people, and features an ensuite bathroom with a stand-up shower stall. The boat also boasts air-conditioning, an MP3 stereo system, a full kitchen with a stove, a barbecue, a fridge and freezer, and all the safety equipment you might need.

Your trip will take you out to the reefs, where you can bottom fish or try your luck at spearfishing. The ultimate goal is to enjoy the day, whether you catch fish or snorkel or just relax. The targeted species will be Mahi Mahi, King Mackerel, Jacks, Whiting, Bonito, Tuna, and Barracuda.

The crew will provide you with the fishing gear, and also serve cool drinks and snacks so all you have to bring is sunscreen. You’ll also enjoy the shade provided by the T-Top, and the music onboard.

Come and enjoy your day with Jamaica Sailing Adventures, and make your fishing trip a lasting memory!
