Sea Cross II - Fishing Miami
Come aboard the Sea Cross and experience the best deep sea fishing in Miami! At the helm is owner and operator Captain Rafael Mayans, an experienced guide who is dedicated to making every trip special. Join him for your chance to land the catch of a lifetime!
The yacht is conveniently docked at Haulover marina we are only 15 minutes away from lines in more fishing time from our location than from any other marina here in South Florida this means more fishing time for you!
The Sea Cross is a 45’ custom rigged Hatteras Sportfishing Yacht, originally built in 1979 and restored in 2020. It has A/C and this vessel is prepared for some hardcore game fishing and is equipped with a flybridge, Tuna Tubes, and a fighting chair. Capt. Rafael can take up to six passengers on board, with room for four to fish comfortably.
What really makes your time aboard this boat memorable is the captain and crew. Capt. Rafael and his First Mate do their best to cater to every customer’s needs. They are great with anglers of all skill levels, including children. Rest assured they will show you how to target your catch using the most effective technique so you can bring home something unforgettable.
The average catch includes Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna, Blackfin Tuna, Kingfish, Grouper, and more. You are likely to spend most of your time trolling, though you may try your hand at other techniques such as jigging, drift fishing, or kite fishing.
Trips aboard the Sea Cross include a fishing license and everything else you need. Capt. Rafael provides brand new, top-of-the-line gear, featuring the likes of Penn, Shimano, and Daiwa. Depending on the species, you may keep your catch and the crew will clean and fillet it for you. Please note that a tip of 20% for the First Mate is customary.
Come aboard today for the ultimate deep sea fishing experience in Miami Beach!
Live bait is included when available!

Great experience
My family and I had a great time fishing today and highly recommend it to others. We caught a yellowfin and black fin tuna, the yellowfin is rare around the area. Our guides were great and have a depth of knowledge and experience. It was my boys’ first time deep sea fishing and they loved every minute of it and want to do it again.

Great day on the water!
My husband and I came from Texas to fish in Florida. Captain Ralph and First Mate Mike were very friendly and worked hard to put us on fish. My husband caught a 52” Wahoo, and Mike helped make the arrangements to have the fish mounted. We caught a wahoo, kingfish, barracuda, and 2 bonita. The weather was great, unfortunately the fish weren’t biting but Captain Ralph worked all day and we eventually found some. We had a great time and look forward to fishing in Florida again.

Incredible Day on the Water!
The captain and crew were absolutely top-notch — super knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole trip a blast. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish, and you could tell they genuinely cared about making it a great experience. Can’t recommend this crew enough. 10/10 would book again!

The crew and trip were top notch. We had a fantastic trip and company. Caught nice sized Mahi and tuna to include a trophy size. We know that catching and keeping aren’t a guarantee but the crew used techniques to find us the action. Great experience that will bring us back.
