Frequently Asked Questions

We limit each boat to a maximum of 3 passengers to ensure comfort, safety, and personalized attention from our captains. This small group size allows everyone to have an optimal fishing experience.

Absolutely! While full-day trips offer more opportunities, half-day trips can still yield excellent catches. Many big-game species are active throughout the day, and our captains know the best spots for quick action.

Our boats have basic seating and some shade options, but we recommend bringing sunscreen, a hat, and protective clothing. The tropical sun can be intense, especially during midday hours.

No experience necessary! Our trips are suitable for both beginners and experienced anglers. Our captains will provide guidance on techniques and help you throughout the trip.

Yes, you can keep your catch! We provide a cool box to store your fish. We practice sustainable fishing and encourage catch-and-release for certain species when appropriate.

Safety is our top priority. If weather conditions are unsafe, we will reschedule your trip or offer a full refund. We monitor weather forecasts closely and will contact you in advance if conditions look unfavorable.
