Deep-Sea Fishing in Barbados with Nauti Dreams Luxury Charters

The Experience
Before You Go
Take motion-sickness meds early
If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication at least 30–60 minutes before departure and bring ginger chews; the ride out can be bouncy.
Sun protection is non-negotiable
Use a reef-safe sunscreen, wide-brim hat and UV sunglasses — reflected sun from the Atlantic intensifies exposure.
Wear non-slip deck shoes
Closed-toe, non-marking shoes protect feet and improve grip on wet surfaces when fighting fish or moving on deck.
Bring a waterproof bag for valuables
Stash phones, wallets and cameras in a dry bag; spray and splashes are constant on offshore runs.

Conservation Note
Charters promote responsible handling and selective retention; use of reef-safe sunscreen and adherence to size limits help protect reef ecosystems and pelagic stocks.
Barbados’ coastal fishing tradition evolved from small-scale local fisheries to sport and charter operations as offshore access improved with modern boats and navigation.
