2.Punta Cana Private Fishing Charter on 39 Foot Boat with Bevarages

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 83 reviews

Set out from Punta Cana at 7:30 a.m. on a private 39-foot boat with a captain and first mate. Fish for mahi-mahi, tuna, sailfish, marlin, and barracuda using supplied tackle, bait, fuel, and licenses. The boat has a fighting chair, bar, toilet, shower, swim ladder, and drinks. Captains Richard and Rosario and mates Andy, Havi, and others have earned especially strong praise.

“We have been on this charter twice, and had a good time on both occasions. The hotel pick up is very convenient. While the accommodations on the boat are basic, the service was always good and the crew are knowledgeable and we were fortunate enough to catch fish on both trips. I strongly recommended that you request to have some of your catch cooked up at the local beach front restaurant (for a fee paid to the restaurant). Fresh dorado cooked the same day is exceptionally good eating.”
