Landed a 150lb marlin! The local guides knew exactly where to find the fish. Equipment was top-notch and the boat was comfortable. We even got to cook our catch afterwards - best meal of our trip!

Took my son on this tour for his first deep sea fishing experience. The crew was patient and helpful, teaching him the basics. He caught two tunas and hasn't stopped talking about it! Great family activity.
