The fish weren’t cooperative, but thats beyond anyone’s control. We still had a great time with Captain Carlos and Mate Eli. They did everything they could to put us on the fish, but, thats why its called “fishing”, not “catching”.  The boat and equipment were nice, and we did manage to catch a few Mahi Mahi. Would we have liked to catch more? Hell yes!! Do we blame the crew? Hell No!!!! I’m already looking forward to my next trip on the Divina with Carlos and Eli.

Make sure you ask Francisco about cooking your catch, right off the boat and into the restaurant. Mahi Mahi three ways. Even my “anti-fish” son loved it. 

Of the six of us, 4 had never been deep sea fishing, and 2 had never held a rod in their lives.  Everyone had a great time and we’re already talking about “next time”.

Book the Divina, you won’t be disappointed, regardless of the catch!!

What a fantastic day. started well with the crew being very frindly and the weather great. started catching Mahi Mahi early and some barracudas as well. Then came my dream fish. We hooked and caught a 150 lbs Blue Marlin. I have been trying to catch one for 15 years. so all told i caught a blue marlin and 15 other fish. trip of a lifetime. crew were fantastic. go book this boat and crew as fast as you can. dont walk run and book this crew and boat. I will remember this trip of my whole life

my wife and i booked an afternoon fishingvtrip with Fishing Pro Charters
on the Divina 35’.
we were Picked up on the beach at Secrets Royal Beach resort and transported to the Divina by dingy. A great experience. A verey well seasoned captain and mate. They know the surrounding waters and species of fish.

We caught a very nice bull mahi mahi and a barracuda.
I highly recommend their services and will fish with them the next time i am in town.

From snowy New York to the warm shores of the DR, this trip exceeded every expectation.
Francisco greeted me on the beach like an old friend after we’d only messaged from 1,500 miles away. Traveling solo, I was immediately welcomed aboard and introduced to Captain Carlo and first mate Guy — and somehow we fell into a rhythm like we’d fished together for years, despite not even speaking the same language.

We landed king mackerel, mahi-mahi, and barracuda, but the real catch was the experience itself. Even if I had planned every detail (which I didn’t), it couldn’t have matched what these three incredible men and their team delivered. Truly the trip of a lifetime — many, many thanks!
