Half-Day Deep Sea Fishing Charter on Wahooter's — Providenciales, Turks and Caicos
Head offshore from Grace Bay aboard the Wahooters for a private half-day deep sea fishing charter. In under 30 minutes you can be trolling the wall for marlin, tuna, mahi mahi, or wahoo with a full crew to handle bait, gear, and filleting.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring motion-sickness medication
Take an antiemetic before boarding if you’re prone to seasickness; the ride to the wall is short but the open ocean can roll unexpectedly.
Protect your skin
Use reef-safe sunscreen, a brimmed hat, and polarized sunglasses to reduce glare and UV exposure during the afternoon run.
Footwear matters
Wear closed, non-slip deck shoes instead of sandals for safe movement on a wet deck and when boarding.
Plan for filleting and transport
Bring a cooler or arrange resort delivery if you plan to take fish home; the crew will clean and fillet your catch at the dock.
