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. Joseph and his first mate worked nonstop to make sure we were on fish and having a great time. We did a mix of trolling and drifting, and the action didn’t disappoint. We had... More

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. Joe was really nice and personable and easy to make conversation with. I really enjoyed his company and learning about him and the island. Our trip was great and I caught tuna and barricuda! I would absolutely recommend this to anyone for a great fishing experience. As a female solo angler I felt very safe and comfortable.... More

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 were blessed to spend several hours with Joe and Cesar in the beautiful Caribbean waters and caught enough fish to make us deliriously happy. We can’t wait to go back!!!! They both have such a great sense of humor it is a pleasure being around them. Cesar even cleaned our fish.... More

The boat was clean and well-equipped, and they took us straight to great fishing spots. We caught some impressive fish and the crew was super helpful with baiting hooks, giving tips, and making sure we didn’t miss a catch. What really stood out was the overall experience—the views were beautiful, the atmosphere was fun and relaxed, and you can tell they truly enjoy what they do.

We had a blast with Capt Joseph and Earl. They were both super personable and knowledgeable. The fish weren’t super active during trolling, so we changed tactics and bottom fished for red snapper. Everyone caught fish and had a great time! Highly recommend!!
