We started off the trip catching bait fish, reeling Bonitas in three at a time! The water was a little rock-n-roll in deeper water and my teen got a little sick! The Captain made a suggestion to go back to shallow water and this was a good option. The water was calmer and we started catching Barracudas! My son reeled in a big one that measured 58” and probably sixty plus pounds!

The Captain kept us on the fish and the deck hands worked their tails off keeping lines in the water! There were times when we were reeling in more than one fish at a time! They had plenty of cold drinks and made sure we felt welcome onboard!

We used Uber to and from the marina which was around $55 round trip total and about 25-30 min from the North Central end of the Hotel District. Cell Phones work once you get back to the marina gate! There is a security gate to get into the resort/marina, don’t let them try to drop you off outside the gate, its still a 1/4 mile to the marina!

We will definitely be back and in search of a Mahi-mahi next time! Just no ice cream for the kid pre-trip next time!

We had an absolutely fantastic experience on our fishing charter in Cancun! From start to finish, the captain and crew were incredible — professional, friendly, and clearly very experienced. The boat was beautiful, extremely clean, and well organized, with top-quality gear that made fishing comfortable and exciting.

Even when some of us started feeling a bit seasick, the crew went above and beyond to make sure we were okay. They were attentive, supportive, and constantly checking in, offering helpful recommendations and anything we needed to feel better. Their care and hospitality truly stood out.

Overall, it was an amazing day on the water. We couldn’t have asked for a better team or a better experience. Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a great fishing adventure in Cancun! 🎣🌊

Great experience with Samaki II Charters Cancún! From start to finish, the crew was professional and knowledgeable.

We were lucky enough to land one tuna and three sailfish. The captain and crew worked nonstop—great communication, excellent teamwork, and they made sure everyone onboard had a chance to be part of the action.

The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, and the crew made the trip both exciting and safe. Whether you’re an experienced angler or a first-timer, this charter delivers.

If you’re looking for serious offshore fishing in Cancún, Samaki II Charters is the way to go.

We highly recommend Enrique and his team.  It was very easy to chat with Enrique prior to the trip with any questions and he responded immediately. The boat had everything you need for a good day of fishing. We weren’t able to bring food and I asked Enrique if he could supply us with sandwiches and he put together an excellent lunch for us. We asked to fish for barracuda and caught 7! It was so exciting and everything we were hoping for. Thank you to Entique’s team for an amazing memorable experience! We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an ocean fishing experience.

We had a great day with Captain Enrique and his crew. We arrived a little early, prepared to wait, but the crew was ready to go, which we appreciated! I have not spent much time fishing, but the first mate and other captain told me exactly what I needed to do. If you have never fished, this is still an adventure you can participate in because the crew is so helpful. We ended up catching 14 baraccuda and had a fantastic time. We will definitely book with Captain Enrique again if we get the opportunity!
