Captain Fernando has been fishing since he was a kid and he never stopped. Being the son of a fisherman, it felt natural to continue with the family tradition. It didn't take long till his passion became a profession. This style of living lets him meet new people all the time and it's a great 'excuse' to do what he loves the most - catch big game fish!

    Half Day Trip4 adults

    Captain Fernando and his assistant Alfredo made this an unforgettable trip. We booked a half-day fishing charter and had such an amazing time that we immediately booked another day with them for a beach and fishing tour. They exceeded every expectation and paid attention to every detail, making sure we had an incredible experience from start to finish. Their professionalism, knowledge, and friendly personalities made the trip even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for an unforgettable day on the water, I can’t recommend them enough. 1000/1000—highly recommend!

    Persistence Saved the Day!

    Full Day Trip4 adults

    We had an amazing time with Jairo, starting at ~7am, we caught a smaller Mahi Mahi at around 9am that was returned to the ocean, then a huge Mahi Mahi at 10:30am that we kept for dinner! We then trailed the ocean for the next 4 hours or so until we FINALLY caught one more good one. Jairo filleted the fish for us and called to make a booking at his friend's restaurant for that evening, where our catch was cooked 3 different ways for us all to try. Great day, great music, great vibes, great fish, super experience overall!

    Half Day Trip (AM)2 adults

    Fernando was an amazing guide. Patient, professional and highly skilled fisherman. Ended up catching Dorado, SkipJack, and Mahi mahi. Fernando and Alberto filleted the fish while we went swimming and gave us directions to a restaurant that cooked it for us while we waited. Amazing experience. Will rebook when we return.

    beautiful day

    Half Day Trip (AM)2 adults

    Two of us went out with Captain Eddy and his deck hand to catch Dorado or yellow fin. weather was perfect and the sites were great. we caught live bait then went out. We had several big hits but only ended up with one nice size mackerel. Captain Eddy tried everything and even extended our 5 hour trip to 7 hours at no charge. He did his best but any fishermen knows some days they aren’t biting good. But everything was GREAT!!!

    Eduardo is the man!

    Full Day Trip2 adults

    Eduardo "Eddie" was our captain, and we could not have had a better day fishing. We were the first boat to get to the hot spot for the day, and caught Dorado after Dorado. While other boats struggled to catch fish, Eddie had us on the mahi from the start! We finished the day filleting the fish and eating fresh sashimi on a beautiful sandy beach. We have 30 lbs of dorado fillets to bring home. Would recommend this trip to any angler.
