Great experience! Sonny...

Great experience! Sonny and Joanne were amazing! Caught over twelve fish, snorkeled with sea turtles, nurse sharks and sting rays. Sonny made the best ceviche, coconut curry vegetable dish and of course the fresh catch of the day, snapper. All of the cooking happened at a beach with minimal people and warm calm water all to our selves. It was a great time, go with the flow feel. Highly recommend this tour!

You see everything

We got to see it all! We saw a manatee, several turtles, sting rays, a ton of different fish and a bunch of sharks. The guides were great, super helpful. I was nervous about the sharks but they helped me become comfortable enough to go in and I'm so glad I did! The only downside to the tour was the sargassum but that's just the carribean at this time of year. Overall this excursion was the highlight of our san pedro trip and I highly recommend it!

A must do in San Pedro!

This was the best day with the best guide! We absolutely loved Sonny! He was incredibly knowledgeable with fishing, patient when teaching, and completely flexible to our requests. Hes also one heck of a cook, our lunch was delicious! My husband has been on many fishing charters and this one he said was by far the best! Can you please have Sonny reach out to us? We'd like to continue our discussions of group outings in January.
