We had an incredible experience with Roatan Reef Explorer Tours and Captain Joseph. From the moment we met him, you could tell this isn’t just a job for him—it’s a lifelong passion. He’s been fishing these waters since he was a kid, and that deep local knowledge really shows once you’re out on the water.

Joe and his mate, Aaron, were great hosts. Finding Joe at the port was very easy. His van was air conditioned and it was a short drive to the boat. The boat was perfect for the trip.

We finally realized our lifelong dream of deep-sea fishing while in Roatan for a wedding. What a blast these guys were!!! Joseph truly LOVES his job! I think he’d fish 24 hours a day if he could stay awake. Lol.

We had a great experience!  Very rough conditions with the weather, but the trip was still a success.  We really enjoyed the flexibility of the crew.  While not the “nicest” boat, the crew were genuinely great to be around and really cared about our experience.  I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to have great conversations and catch some big fish!

captain joe is amazing. we had terrible weather and he still got us on fish!!  We knew the weather was bad and didn’t have high expectations but he went above and beyond.
