Lack of communication. Right off the bat they should of told me that they where going to pick me up from my hotel. I had to pay $120.00 for a round trip ride. When I arrived at my he dock they said they sent me an email the night before to confirm hotel and pick up time. I didn’t get this email till the day after my trip for some reason. If they would of took care of this the day I booked the trip I would of gotten the email in time! Captain Mike did a great job! Seas where a little rough for diving, kind of wish I would’ve tried to postpone.

Alex had a diversity of fishing including fly, trolling, and bait that made for optimum catch potential. Having fly fishing as an option along with the typical deep sea trolling elevates this company above the competition. This was the best guiding I’ve experienced, with Alex not only being a good guide but good company. I would highly recommend him to any one looking to get out on the water, regardless of fishing preference. THANKS ALEX!!!

Mr. Martinez thanks for your review , even it is not fair . I spoke with Alex your captain, and the conditions of the water and flats was bad full of seaweeds because the weather , something the we can control ! He does like you said everything posible for you have some catch like he did make happen. Fishing is fishing ! . Sorry but at that point you should return to the marina and re schedule for another day or cancel the trip .
We have these past 2 week a lot of seaweed and that affect the inshore and flats fishing . If you want to come back complementary by Atlantida please let us know . But your review it’s not a fair and either objective .
Thanks for your review.

We were picked up at our hotel right on time, headed to the dock where the boat was ready and waiting. Less than five minutes and we were on our way. The morning was s little slow… then wham… 5 dorado and two marlin later ( hooked to marlin at the same time and brought them both in) and everyone was smiling! The first dorado caught was my daughters first fish ever. Great time for all!

My wife and I had an amazing time with Calvin. He continually made efforts to make sure our time was top notch. Very entertaining and brought the perfect amount of beer and lots of cold water. The equipment was all set and he was quick to help you change your lure/rig or get your line unstuck. I wanted to try fly fishing first, but with my limited salt water experience I had trouble casting in the wind. Although I had a few fish chase my fly I believe my stripping technique needs some work on the warm salt water. This is a far cry from the cold water rainbows and brown trout I am used to catching. Calvin was very accommodating when I gave up the fly and wanted to switch to something else. He out my wife on a bonefish right away and she was very excited about that. My wife absolutely loved the smoothness of the gear and the lack of effort it actually took to get a line in the water. She wants me to buy the braided wire that Calvin used and is now anxious to do some spin fishing instead of the usual fly. I want having much luck until I saw a large fish intersted in my bait. I alerted the captain and he grabbed a second rig with lightning fast speed and got it in the water for me before the big fish even moved or knew what was happening. He placed the bait like a pro and handed me the rod as the fish absolutely exploded the reel and sent us into a nice fight. After a slow next hour we decided to go snorkeling and swimming which made for a very diverse experience. The only complaint I gave is how this rating system effects the captains so directly. I think the review should not effect the individual captains rating on the website. One bad day can severely effect that captains reputation. Fishing is fishing not catching and any experienced angler knows this. One rookie that doesn’t catch anything can ruin a captains month just because they expect to “catch” fish. It’s all about how the captain overcomes adversity and adapts the situation and Calvin is world class at this. Not to mention the beautiful marina that he took us around and got pictures when after our 4 hours were up. Bravo! I will be back! - Graham Brodersen

Although younger than me these guys know how and where to fish as we hooked into 2 Marlin, caught 4 Mahi Mahi and were robbed by 6 barracudas. Overall great trip and highly recommended.

We had an excellent time. The captain Tito and his first mate (?) did everything they could to ensure we caught a fish. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen but it wasn’t for lack of trying. Service was excellent. We have been on many fishing charters and they met all of our expectations. The fish just weren’t biting. My only complaint is there is some miscommunication with fishingbooker.com as to whether or not the $40 RT transportation from Punta Cana is included or not. Fishingbooker says it is and they said it isn’t. In the end, we did not have to pay it. Thanks for a beautiful day on the water.

Decent outfit overall. Upside - enthusiastic, knowledgeable, guide. New gear properly weighted for targeted fish.
Downside. Lack of communication as to where in a very large marina the boat was located. Totally unaware that a trip had been booked when we arrived ( and that’s after I spoke directly with a “captain.” Serious lack of communication between boat/crew/owner/booking agent. Managed to pull themselves together in about 30 minutes.

Always our staff let you know in a ever form the size of the wave and ocean condition before your departure time from the marina at the boat . With 8 ft ocean wave automatic the marina close for all charters boats and no one can get out to the seas .

Seas were too rough for a trip.
In this case, the Captain and supporting staff 100% should have cancelled the trip based on their expertise and knowledge of the local seas.
Half the group got seasick (most of us have been out many times) and we did not get one single strike.

The boat is great, and the crew were great! Our only issue was the rough water which was totally out of their control! We booked the 3/4 day but two of us were so sick the entire time that we went back very early- only stayed out for about 2 hours, but before turning around we caught two Mahi Mahi. When in comparison to other full day trips we’ve done & caught nothing- we were pretty pleased!
Booking was fast and they were very responsive. Transportation was set up for us & everything went smooth, other than the water haha! I would highly recommend, just check the marine forecast prior!Amanda Haynes recommends Atlantida Punta Cana - Marlin FeverFished March 2018

We started the day by being picked up by an awesome driver named nick. He was nice enough to stop and get us some beer and accompanied me into the store to help me communicate. We were greated at the boat by a nice female who was there to be sure everything was taken care of and to our liking. We met the captain and deck hand, whom were both awesome. There was a slight language barrier. I know enough Spanish to get by during brief conversation, but these guys didn’t know very much English. That was fine by me because just a 20 minute ride to sea we were on the fish! Our first catch was a barricuda. We had 1 in our party who immediately got sea sick, but roughed it out the entire day. 20 minutes later we had our first mahi mahi in the live well. Diago, our first mate, was running the rest of the day. We had several hookups and most of the day we had 4 rods being reeled in with mahi mahi at one time. The entire day was like this and he definitely earned his keep that day! We had pretty rough seas, but I barely noticed being too busy catching fish. We decided to call it a day about an hour early because 3 of the 5 of us were chumming the waters. Lol! We did troll most of the way back to the marina and a few miles out hooked into a nice tuna. This was a great surprise being it was the first tuna i had ever caught. We chose 3 fish to have them filet for us so the resort could cook them for us that night. With the amount and size of fish we had, we could have fed half the resort it seemed. Customer service was top notch. I emailed Anthony Perez several time to make sure the 2 hurricanes hadn’t destroyed anything or ruined our trip. He always answered every one of our questions within a couple of hours amd in great detail. He arranged our transportation and sent us with 2 of his best fisherman to get us into the fish. Half way back to the resort he called our driver and asked to speak with me just to make sure everything went well and to hear our fish stories. That kind of attention to detail and commitment to running a top notch charter is hard to come by. Best deep sea charter I’ve been on. I huge thank you for a great day on the water!

I had booked a half day of bottom fishing on the reef specifically for various species of Snapper and Grouper. When I arrived at the boat they asked me what kind of fishing we wanted to do and when I told them bottom fishing the captain had to run to another boat to get terminal tackle since he was planing to troll. He told us he would start by trolling and then bottom fish when we got out to the reef. The only tackle he had on the boat were two light freshwater rods and reels rated for 4-12 lb. line and up to 5/8 ounce lure weight. He rigged these with rapalas and trolled between the breakers and the beach for a couple hours. We had three strikes during this time two of them were too much for the light tackle and took one long run into rocks and broke off. My son did manage to land the third, a tiny amberjack. The captain didn’t even seem to know how to fish, the fish that broke off were running and taking drag and he was screaming reel, reel even though reeling a spinning reel while the fish is running out drag would only twist the line. He then went outside the breakers and put on bottom rigs and cut ballyhoo for bait. We drifted over the rocks for about 1/2 hour and caught a 4 inch black grouper and a squirrel fish. He then said it was time to troll back to the dock because by then we would be out of time. They also said they would provide transportation to and from my hotel but when I got to the dock they made me pay $40 extra for cab fare. Overall it was a total waste of time and money, I have fished all over the world and while sometimes the tackle was old and banged up I’ve never before had tackle so unsuited to the type of fishing and species we were targeting.

Our trip has mixed reviews. Pros very nice boat and beautiful marina. Boat was equipped nicely to fish. We were expecting to fish w Anthony but went out w Brian who was very nice and accommodating to us especially since my wife was sick half way into our trip. Cons: although the day was sunny, it was windy and we fished during high tide. Unfortunately we did not catch any fish and only had a few bites. I wasn’t sure if it was just bad luck or if our captain was not as experienced fishing in high tide because he would get on the radio and talk to others. This was our first time fishing in the Dominican and I probably I would have cancelled or rescheduled our trip ahead of time if I would have seen the weather report and paid more attention to the tide.

Carlos and Franklin gave us a memorable and fun trip of fishing and snorkeling.
The fish still weren’t hungry after a couple hours. But Capt Carlos tried multiple spot and checked with other captains we finally brought in a trophy sized barracuda and a great wahoo dinner.
Celebrated with some cocktails and eventful snorkeling.
Highly recommended.

We had a great time fishing for Marlin on this charter! Anthonly Perez was prompt and responsive to my inquires. He was informative and personable. Marlin Fever is a 36’ Phoenix that was clean and comfortable. The equipment was high quality and the captain and crew were very experienced and fun to be around. They did everything possible to get us the fish - they changed the bait frequently, S turning, zig zagging, changing speeds and ultimately I did get my marlin! We caught one, missed one and had a Wahoo bite one of our lines! I would highly recommend Anthony Perez and his team for a great deep sea fishing experience. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rb35wMIV7OM

Trip was everything we expected, everything was done professionally. Captain and mate were very courteous and knowledgeable! Only caught 1 Mahi mahi but the seas were very rough.The only downside I had was the language barrier..of Course that being my mistake..I’ll be sure to brush up on my Spanish for our next trip.

Our trip was great we hooked a whore marlin within the foray 40 min or so. Later caught a Mahi would have liked to have brought more in but all in all it was a great trip. The boat is very clean and neat crew is nice.

We had some crazy weather with rough seas which made for a difficult time on the water. The Crew did what they could to get us on fish and we did pull in a Mahi Mahi and Barracuda. A couple Woohoo’s almost hooked up but cut our baits and lines. The Owner the boat offered to take us back out later in the week because they felt bad that the weather wasn’t ideal. Very nice gesture. I would recommend this company and boat to the casual angler and would use them again when I find myself back in the DR.

Captain worked hard and was very sociable. The fishing was extremely slow. Only 2 fish caught in the 4 hours. Both were caught trolling which was not the expected method of fishing. He did stop trolling to try bottom fishing with bait. We had no bites and he did move three times with no luck. We then returned to trolling and he changed tackle several times through the trip. Overall hoped for a lot more action. This is my 3 rd time fishing here in punts Cana. Not that I pressed with the fishing inshore or off shore. Not the captain,s falt. I think the fishing is just not what I expected.

Thanks Mr. Shea for your comments , Alex was your captain and some times the fish are slow in the reef area due weather changes the wind and current , I see he tray couple places by your coments and different techniques, but it’s fishing and some times it’s like that usually normal 4 hour day at least 7 to 8 bites and yellowtails and amberjacks are the species more frecuently at this type of fishing at punta cana .
Thanks for your comment .

My wife and I were very excited for this trip, and Atlantdia did not let us down. Captain Alex greated us at the dock, led us to the boat, and within 5 minutes of arriving we were under way. We trolled through the marina and out to the reef. Within 5 minutes we hooked into a yellowtail snapper. We trolled for another 20 minutes when I then asked if we could do some bottom fishing. Captain Alex quickly made a tackle adjustment for my wife and I, and on my first cast I hooked into a small grouper. We were having a blast, which is right when the trip went bad on my part.
I have been sea sick in the past, but it has been 6 years since the last time. Captain Alex noticed I wasn’t feeling well. I started getting sea sick, and after it did not go away Captain Alex made every adjustment possible to help accommodate me. We moved to the inside of the reef and ultimately moved to the calm water in the cove in an effort to calm my stomach. Eventually I asked to go in and Alex was more than happy to assist in helping me feel better.
I am a seasoned fisherman (inland lakes mostly), and had I not gotten sea sickness I am confident we would have caught a lot more fish.
Captain Alex had a lot of knowledge of the reef and were to catch fish. My wife and I will be back again to use Atlandia Punta Cana, but next time I will bring the Dramamine for myself.
Thank you Anthony, and captain Alex for doing everything possible to make our fishing trip a great success!Cory Lewber recommends Atlántida Inshore and Fly FishingFished March 2017

This was great trip fish came very fast for a few hours then a low point towards the middle of the day as expected and then it picked right back up for the last few hours! would recommend to any one interested in taking a charter. You know you have a good crew when other charter boats are following you around the whole day. The captain had great communication with update on the weather and the best days to go very impressed!

The trip to and from marina was easy and fast. When we got to the marina we were greeted by the captain and first mate. They were both very friendly and excited about getting out on the water to catch some fish. After about a hour we had are first hit with a baracooda but didn’t hook up. About 15 mins after that we got into the mahi and it was a double hook up! This is were it got exciting they were getting other lines out of water trying to keep lines from crossing each other. A lot going in at once lol very exciting. The 2 mahi were good size and put up a great fight! Not to mention the sharks trying to attack mahi on way to boat WAS AWESOME!! If you want top notch service with a friendly and knowledgeable crew this is who you need to book with. I would DEFINATLY fish this captain and crew in a minute!!

The Marlin Fever is in good condition and definitely one of the better fishing charters I’ve done in my limited experience (less than a dozen trips) in Caribbean/Mexico. Seas a bit rough and one seasick casualty for most of the voyage. Captain has limited English but knows the area. Spend first 2-1/2 hours trolling for marlin with no luck but once captain turned attention to dorado we started hooking up. Landed 7 of 8 in the remaining 1/2 day charter before returning to dock. Hooking up a marlin would have made overall experience a 5.

Our family had a great half day experience and would do it again in a heart beat. The crew was top notch. The owner was extremely nice. They even called and asked if we would like to moved our date because they thought the weather wasn’t going to be nice. The only complaint would be the toilet was not working correctly. We did try and do some fishing for the kids, but no luck. If you are wanting to strictly do fishing I don’t believe this is the boat for you. If you want to do some fishing while hanging out with the family in the sun and doing some snorkeling then this is the boat for you.

Mr. Perez is a very nice and honest man who keeps a very clean boat and did a great job communicating throughout the trip. Transport from hotel to marina was excellent. Boat is great for a family sight seeing cruise. As a fishing expedition it was very disappointing…it wasn’t just that we had poor fishing results, but that the crew showed no ability as to how to pattern or target fish. They didn’t change bait color or technique during the entire trip. They didn’t appear to have fly fishing gear on board and the gear they did have was very limited and of average quality. If your expectation is to motor around in circles in calm beautiful water, listen to music, have a cocktail, and maybe wet a line this is a great trip. If your focus is fishing I would select a different trip. While I do not recommend this charter for fishing (I would recommend it as a pleasure cruise) I would use Mr. Perez for a different charter.

Very disappointing, went out a little further than a long pier. Drinks and snacks were a joke. Fishing equipment was old and one reel broke on our trip. The line on the rods was old, worn out, and constantly tangled. Worse fishing trip I have ever had. We caught a couple of small fish, and that was it. Paid 4x’s what this was worth. Did not even go on the same boat we reserved. Two stars is a stretch.

Hi Mr. Peter , sorry for that , but that week was a eastern week in Dominican Republic and i personally explain to you before get to the boat the changes we did because the strong winds and inshore swells at the punta cana marina . I remember even give you a discount the same day of your trip because the changes with out you requested. But don’t worry your comments help us a lot and now we have braided lines and shimano reel in all of our boats , next time you come please give us the chance to meek it up for you and your family at no charge .
thanks for your comments we learn a lot from it .

Had a great time on the Rich and Famous cruise. The captain and mate were very knowledgable and accomodating. The captain put us on fish right away and even the less experienced anglers caught fish. The non-anglers in our party of eight commented that they wished every fishing trip could be this much fun.

I had 2 trips with them. One for fishing and one for the family. Both were great success
The fishing trip took us past the reef with a mixture of trolling and fly fishing (I did bring my rod and flies). The crew was top, helping me with the choice of flies lures and bringing great fishing. In 3 hours we had more than 30 fish, 3 rod all bended more than once…. This was a non stop fishing.. The captain stops the boat so I could flyfish, but it was almost not necessary. Most of the time 4-5 jacks were following he one caught and were happy to get the fly :) We had a mixture of fish with white and yellow jacks, snappers, king mackerels and groupers.
the family trip was inshore (before the reefs) and was a lower pace but perfect for a relaxing day with the family. The crew could not stop to be helpful. We had some some snorkelling, the 1st mate was swimming everywhere trying to find some interesting views, and he found a flounder. We went to a “natural pool” ...being in the middle of the sea with 50cm of water is very strange, once again the 1st mate was trying hard and found a stingray and a huge hermit crab… All these with some fishing between the stops and we manage a couple of snappers….
All the admin was great and easy, dealing with them via email, the transport was on time and very friendly. The boats are very clean and well maintain. I would recommend them to everybody (fisherman or family) Just talk to them and explain what you would like.

Only a couple of fish. Tackle could be of better quality, first mate was a great kid but knew nothing about fishing
That said, for us this was more of a boating excursion, which was great, boat was spotless. Capt was great, as well as the snorkeling
