Deep-sea fishing off Cabarete: 45ft boat with marlins and tuna

Four hours offshore catching sailfish, marlin and tuna with a full bar and crew

A half-day deep-sea fishing excursion off Cabarete aboard a 45ft, 400hp twin-engine boat where you fish up to 15 miles offshore for marlins, wahoo, sailfish, tuna, barracudas and dorados with a professional guide, round-trip transportation from your resort, all fishing gear, and full insurance coverage included.

The experience

You board a 45ft twin-engine boat and head up to 15 miles offshore into waters famous for marlin and tuna. A professional guide handles the rigging and technique while you work the rod, with chances to hook sailfish, blue marlin, wahoo, tuna, barracudas and dorados depending on the season and conditions. The boat carries all equipment (rods, reels, tackle), so you show up ready to fish. Complimentary sandwiches, beer, water, soda, fruit and rum keep you fueled through the morning or afternoon.

Round-trip transportation picks you up from your resort, villa or condo and returns you on time. The vehicle is air-conditioned and WiFi is available on board. Full insurance coverage is included, and the boat guarantees your return to port as scheduled. Children from age one are welcome, and the activity suits all fitness levels, though it is not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries, pregnancy or poor cardiovascular health.
