There were several things I wished I had known beforehand on this trip.  It turned into a very expensive water taxi trip to Tortuga.

Captain and crew were fine, and the boat and equipment were good.  However, the description says snorkel equipment provided.  It is not.  20 bucks each to rent it. 

We didn’t have a single bite.  I get it, sometimes that is fishing, but there was no offer to change tactics or species.  I had expressed interest in my initial email after booking in rooster fishing, but that apparently wasn’t considered, and only trolling tackle was on the boat.

There was just an over and back ride to Tortuga, with trolling on the way.  We also felt like if you are going to advertise a trip to Tortuga, the water taxi to get on the island should be included, along with the advertised scuba gear.  It was not.

The boat and gear are good, crew is nice enough and probably competent, but some ability to be flexible and provide viable options would be appreciated.  I would not recommend the Tortuga Island experience.  There are much cheaper options if that is what you want.  The description also needs to be updated to clearly indicate what is included and what is not.

Sometimes they bite, and sometimes they don’t,  but it was frustrating to have a lack of flexibility and accurate description.

Had a great 2 days fishing ! Crew worked hard to catch us fish.

We got started 45 minutes late due to the captain and crew arriving late…and still paid full price. Boat and equipment was great. Only hooked one sailfish the entire 5 hours. However, we did get real close to dolphins and enjoyed that experience.
