Cartagena Fishing
Cartagena Fishing invites you to join them on a memorable offshore fishing trip in Colombia. The crew has over 35 years of fishing experience among themselves and will do their best to get you on the fish and keep you there. Anglers of all ages and skill levels are welcome, and the captain will take care to make sure the trip is tailored to your needs.
The boat is a 38' Todomar sportfishing vessel that's powered by twin 250 HP Suzuki engines. There's plenty of room on the boat for up to seven people to fish in comfort, so why not bring the whole family along for the ride? The boat is equipped with all the necessary gear and electronics needed for a safe and productive trip, letting you focus on the fishing itself.
Colombia is one of the best places to be if you're at all into big-game fishing. From Mahi Mahi to Cobia, Marlin, and Tuna, these waters are every angler's dream. There are plenty of bottom feeders like Snapper to find as well if you want to catch something tasty. The crew prefers deep dropping and vertical jigging but will do whatever is needed to help you hook the catch of your dreams.
Our Crew goes above and beyond to make sure your fishing experience was everything you hoped for. Tipping 15% to 20% of the total charter cost is considered standard for a fishing crew, with the final amount depending on the quality of service. Unlike restaurant tipping, the crew's hard work is the primary basis for the tip, not the number of fish caught, since that is often beyond their control.
Rods, reels, and terminal tackle come included in the price of the trip, along with the necessary fishing licenses. There are also drinks to be found aboard, so the only thing that's really missing is you! All ages welcome!

Pankaj Kumar5.0Well organized fishing charter.
Full Day Trip - Deep Dropping on February 6, 2026We had an absolutely outstanding full-day fishing trip with this boat. From the moment we left the dock, the captain made our entire family feel safe, comfortable, and excited for the day ahead — especially our kids. We spent the day exploring beautiful islands, fishing in different spots, and learning about the area. The captain’s knowledge of the waters was incredible — he always knew exactly where to go, and it showed. Before we knew it, we had a cooler full of fish, which made the experience even more exciting for the kids. What really made this trip special was how patient and friendly the captain was. He took time to help the children with their rods, explain what was happening, and celebrate every catch. It wasn’t just a fishing trip — it was a real family adventure. This was hands-down one of the best experiences of our vacation in Cartagena. We left with amazing memories, great photos, and more fish than we could believe. We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a fun, safe, and successful fishing trip for the whole family

James McgrathRepeat angler5.0VerifiedMy nephew caught 4 tuna one one line
Special 4 hours trip for James Mcgrath on January 18, 2026 • 4 adultsSkipper got us to the fish pretty fast and we all caught at least one fish; assortment of yellow and blue tuna, mackerel and bonito!
Alfonso Valdez5.0VerifiedGrear captain and crew.
Full Day Trip - Offshore Special on August 29, 2025 • 3 adultsThe crew worked hard to get you on the fish. We dis catch a few fish but we had to work hard for it. Catching fish is not easy but they went well out of there way to make it happen. I know this because Im a commercial fisherman with my own boat.
Brian Sellitto5.0VerifiedGreat people
Half Day Expedition on February 12, 2024 • 3 adultsThis was a very pleasant experience. We caught a couple fish as soon as we reached our destination. My boyfriend and his dad got incredibly seasick and our captain and first mate were incredibly kind and accommodating and got us back to shore quickly. Highly recommend

Full Day - Beginning of August
Full Day Trip - Deep Dropping on August 8, 2023 • 3 adults • 1 childThis was a good captain, good boat and good gear overall. Captain seemed to definitely know the local waters. The only reason why I give captain and crew 4 stars is because the deckhand, while very attentive and nice, didn't seem to know how to maneuver the boat to keep our lines vertical when bottom fishing while the captain tried to get the rod on the fish. 4 stars for boat and equipment because, while the boat was very nice and comfortable and the rod, reels and lines were on point, the tackle was not. I observed the hooks being used on the trolling lures and several of the trebles being used on the lines were very rusted and by no means sharp. The owner of the boat is not the captain, which I was disappointed to see when I arrived. We were after the big boys today, but they didn't bite. They were all over though and I could see tuna jumping out of the water all morning. That's fishing though. Overall 4/5.

Half Day Expedition on August 26, 2023 • 6 adultsWe had a great time on this charter. We only went out for a few hours but landed 13 small tuna and one monster wahoo. Boat was shaded and comfortable, captain and deck hand were great. Would go again!
Bimba Lue5.0Great fishing day
Half Day Expedition on February 3, 2022Great time fishing. Highly recommend crew is very knowledgeable about the ocean and where the fish are. We spent time learning some local knowledge before the bite was on! Great time with family. We brought the fish to a local restaurant the crew recommend and had a fresh catch dinner!
