Salty Boat Charters

Member since February 2019 Gros Islet, Saint Lucia
Background
Salty Boat Charters is led by Captain Cleus, a seasoned angler with a lifelong passion for the ocean. Born with salt in his veins, Cleus started fishing at a young age and quickly developed a deep respect for the sea. A defining offshore trip in his early years sealed his path—he knew then that life on the water wasn’t just a hobby, it was a calling. Captain Cleus began his career working aboard private sportfishing boats, where he sharpened his skills in both inshore and offshore fishing. With over a decade of professional experience, he now runs Salty Boat Charters—a charter built on expertise, hard work, and a love for the water. Today, Captain Cleus is backed by a dedicated crew of six experienced staff members who share his passion for fishing and top-tier service. From deckhands to support crew, each member of Team Salty is committed to making your trip smooth, safe, and full of action. Whether you’re chasing trophy pelagics or just out for a fun day on the water, Salty Boat Charters delivers an unforgettable experience—every time.
