Cartagena Fishing

Cartagena de Indias, Colombia
50+ reviews
From the start of my life, I was born into a salt family. The first time I was taken fishing was at the age of 2. Fishing is part of my soul. From then on, I set out to conquer all styles of fishing from the high county in Colorado to the Colombian Caribbean. I became more and more knowledgeable as time progressed, as one would. My passion for others to have a great fight and enjoy a fish for dinner the same day is my goal for our customers.

    Well organized fishing charter.

    Full Day Trip - Deep Dropping

    We had an absolutely outstanding full-day fishing trip with this boat. From the moment we left the dock, the captain made our entire family feel safe, comfortable, and excited for the day ahead — especially our kids. We spent the day exploring beautiful islands, fishing in different spots, and learning about the area. The captain’s knowledge of the waters was incredible — he always knew exactly where to go, and it showed. Before we knew it, we had a cooler full of fish, which made the experience even more exciting for the kids. What really made this trip special was how patient and friendly the captain was. He took time to help the children with their rods, explain what was happening, and celebrate every catch. It wasn’t just a fishing trip — it was a real family adventure. This was hands-down one of the best experiences of our vacation in Cartagena. We left with amazing memories, great photos, and more fish than we could believe. We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a fun, safe, and successful fishing trip for the whole family
