The boat advertises it self to be child friendly but it definetly is not. We book an 6 six hour for our family of four. We rolled out just a bit from the harbour and anchored. We were told that we would first fish from the front of the boat for the small fish and later would swap places with other fishers to the back of the boat where the big fish were fished. That never happened, we stayed at the front of the boat for the hole trip. I think all the others on tour got to catch the bigger ones as well, we were just left alone to catch the bite fish with rods. As an experieced fisher I understand that there are better and worse days for fishing when it comes to the fish but can’t understand the discriminarition from the captain. He hardly spoke to us, we didn’t even hear the names of the fish other people got. Our son got to catch a few small ones, our daughter none and unfortunately the tour ended in tears for her as she was the only one on the boat not to catch anything. Bouth our kids have been fishing loads before and they were very much looking forward to this trip. Sometimes you can’t catch as much fish but by telling us things about fishing in the Canaries and the different species etc the captain could have made the trip a hole lot better. And everyone should have equal chance at least to try to catch fish. On top of everything the trip didn’t even last for the 6 hours we paid for. Can’t recommend especially to anyone with kids.

Hello Siina. Many thanks for your review and I’m really sorry to read that you had a bad experience. I’m 100% frustrated about today’s trip. We only caught 3 decent fishes and the rest just baitfish. Normally when we have a good day we call all the fishermen from the back to the front so everyone can catch a big but today it didn’t happen, fishing was just very slow. It broke my heart when I saw your daughter crying. You are right I could have done better for sure but the fishing was not helping and I was frustrated. Again I apologize and I’ll do much better next time.

The captain speaks English very well, he arranged a taxi to pick us up and drop us off. He provided us with drinks and a sandwich.
The fishing wasn’t very good, just baitfish around with the exception of a small stingray. However the captain was pleasant, helpful and interesting.
I would and more than likely will book my trip with him next year.
