Take A Tour
FISH LIKE A LOCAL
6-hour Trip: We recommend setting out at 4:00 AM, just before sunrise, to make the most of the prime fishing hours. Our trip begins with a high-speed run offshore to one of the island’s FADs (fish aggregating devices), where we jig for tuna during their most active feeding time. As the morning progresses and the tuna bite slows, we switch to a variety of techniques—such as trolling and bottom fishing—to keep the action going. Our captain, born and raised on the island, brings not only professional skill but also an intuitive knowledge of the local waters, ensuring a focused, motivated, and truly unforgettable fishing adventure.
Our fishing charters are true extreme fishing experiences, lasting a minimum of 6 hours to reach prime offshore spots and explore different techniques. These trips are best suited for guests in good health, so we kindly recommend that young children (below 12 years old), infants, and those who may find a long day on the ocean challenging choose an alternative excursion instead.
The catch: We often catch yellowfin tuna, blackfin tuna, wahoo, mahi-mahi, rainbow-runner, marlin, sailfish. During bottom fishing we catch: queen snapper, red snapper, yellow-tail snapper, amberjack, grouper, etc. Fishing for sword-fish is also possible upon request.
8-hour Trip: More time on the water, means more chances to catch your trophy fish! Time allows us for a variety of options: we may explore the very deep waters of the North coast, push into the North-East side of the island or catch live bait and use it to troll or jig for yellow fin-tuna, marlin or sailfish. Depending on weather conditions and bite, we will either focus on deep drops targeting queen snappers, groupers, amberjacks or continue trolling for a maximum catch. Our goal is to fill-up that fish cooler and give you an adventure of a lifetime! Upon request, we can also drive further and perform deep drops for swordfish.
Our clean and well-maintained boat provides high quality fishing gear and tackle, coolers with ice, traditional local tools, brand-new engines, space to cool off in the shade. No restroom is provided on the boat.
Fish Sharing:
Most species that are caught in the waters of Bonaire are edible and highly sought after by our local restaurants. The fish supply is very scarce, so no fish goes to waste. All fish that is being kept, is shared amongst locals, restaurants, and family. Our catch is divided evenly amongst: guests, Captain and boat. You may choose the type of fish you would like to keep, and the Captain will clean, fillet and bag it for you free of charge.
