The Experience

Before You Go

Bring sun protection

Even on cloudy days, the tropical sun is intense—use high SPF sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses to shield yourself during long hours on open water.

Wear non-slip shoes

Stable footing on deck is crucial; bring footwear with good grip to stay safe while handling fishing gear on a wet surface.

Stay hydrated

The combination of salt spray and sun exposure can dehydrate quickly—carry a refillable water bottle and drink regularly throughout the trip.

Listen to the crew

Follow expert guidance for using equipment and safety protocols to ensure a smooth and successful fishing experience.
