As this was our first trip to Aruba, I was not sure what to expect. We fished a four hour offshore trip in the afternoon with my 10 year old, and a few friends. We left the dock promptly at 1 o’clock with Captain Marcelino and the mate aboard the Caroline. We immediately hooked into a mutton snapper on the troll which I had never seen before. We continued to troll, and the captain found several barracuda, a beautiful wahoo, and a couple of great blackfin tuna. We did lose one of the black tuna to the tax man (shark) but it was still a great trip. The seas are pretty rough at the north end of the island but the captain worked hard to keeps us all comfortable and on the fish. We returned with 7 barracuda, 2 blackfin tuna, a wahoo, and a mutton snapper. We kept part of our catch and walked right up the dock to nos Clubhuis grill and the cooked up our fresh catch. It was a trip my 10 year old will never forget

2nd time fishing with Marcelino on the Caroline, all great things to say about this crew! Marcelino put on us fish once again.(11 fish in total caught) plus a few that didn’t make it on board.
Gio the Mate worked hard and talked to us when he could. The Caroline(Boat) is clean, well outfitted and the open cabin seating to the back of the boat is great for groups. Many other boats you are in an enclosed cabin and miss on the action. Marcelino is now more than just our boat captain, he will always be part of our Aruba trips and friendships.
Marcelino Thanks for a great Christmas 2024!!!!!!

Headed out at 7:00am, boat was clean, equipment was ready, Captain Marcelino De Jesus and crew (Javier) were very knowledgeable and efficient.  We caught Barracuda, Mahi Mahi and Kingfish!  This is our 2nd time using Sunrise Charters, NV.  Easy to find, right at the pier near Moomba Beach.  Brought my hisband, daughter and brother, they all caught fish. Supper tonight will be amazing- thank you Sunrise Charters

The captain, Marcelino, and Alexander were great. We were ready to go at 6am and caught a fish within the first hour. The boat was clean, equipment was easy to use for a beginner. We had a great time and would recommend this charter to anyone.

Alexander was very nice and his directions helped us bring in a five fish. We took one of the filleted Mahi to the restaurant nearby and they cooked up an incredible meal. We were fortunate to have calm water but I would recommend to anyone who has never gone before or gets motion sickness to take Dramamine the night before and an hour before the trip and maybe even during if needed. This helped redeem deep sea fishing for me and my wife after a disappointing experience with another fishing charter.
