  Great Trip! 10/13/26

  Half Day Trip on October 13, 2026 • 5 adults

  Trip was awesome and exceeded our expectations. Day prior to trip Capt Greg was very honest concerning the weather. Said if conditions don't improve by morning buoy report we wouldn't waste our time and money or safety. 6am day of trip got all call from Capt Greg and he told me the buoy report and weather looked good. We had a 5 hour trip that allowed us to get farther out. In total we caught 55 fish that included 25 keepers including a few groupers. We lost 5 groupers that we could reel fast enough to get them off the structure. Captain was very knowledgeable and kept us on the fish and the mate was awesome too. The boat had excellent shade from the sun . Book your trip with confidence and enjoy the trip with Capt. Greg.

  Top Notch Fishing!

  3/4 Day Trip on June 22, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

  What an incredible fishing trip with our family! Captain Greg and First Mate Aiden made the entire experience unforgettable. We did a 6 hour trip. From the moment we dropped our lines, it was nonstop action. The fish were biting all day, and we were constantly reeling them in. We must have caught and released more than 70 undersized fish, which kept everyone busy and smiling the whole trip. Captain Greg and Aiden were friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and worked hard to make sure we had an amazing time. If you’re looking for a fun, action-packed fishing charter, I highly recommend booking with them. We can’t wait to come back!

  Perfect day of fishing!

  Full Day Trip on June 14, 2026 • 2 adults

  Enjoyed an amazing day of deep sea fishing with Pura Vida Charters! Captain Greg was amazing. We caught our limit of Red Grouper and a lot of Lane Snapper in less than an hour. Then we started sport fishing and caught Amberjacks until we got tired and then capped the day off with a 200+ pound Goliath Grouper! And we had several curious dolphins checking us out as we fished. A rare, perfect day of fishing with my son!

  Awesome charter

  Half day extended on June 30, 2026 • 2 adults

  Captain Greg was vey knowledgeable and put us right on the fish! Aiden was a very helpful first mate. We limited out with lane snapper, mangrove snapper, hog fish, grunts, red grouper, and stawberry grouper. Also caught some gag grouper that weren't in season. I highly recommend pura vida for anyone looking for a good day on the water fishing.

  Great trip

  Half day extended on March 26, 2026 • 6 adults • 2 children

  This was our 1st deep sea fishing charter, 4 adults and 2 children (5 & 12 yrs old). Captain Greg and mate Aden were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. They put us on fish immediately landing 8 kingfish ,also caught 2 grouper which were out of season and had to throw back. Moved on to limit of snapper. Capt. Greg helped the 5 yr old with the fishing experience. The trip exceeded our expectations and I would book another trip with them in a heartbeat. Great trip!
