Out on the water

Head 14–25 miles off Sámara to the drop-offs on Sol de Oro. Troll ballyhoo and lures for sailfish, blue, black and striped marlin, yellowfin tuna, mahi-mahi and wahoo. When fish rise, there may be a chance to switch to poppers or a fly rod.

Sailfish and marlin are always released. Other fish follow the rules and the captain’s decision. Fly fishing is available on request.

What’s included

Drinks and snacks, crew, fuel and shuttle transfer. Fishing trips also include rods, reels, tackle and bait. Lunch is included on eight-hour trips. Fishing licenses, tax and gratuities are extra.

Roosterfish, sailfish, marlin and jacks always go back in the water. Any fish you can keep, the crew fillets on board.

Fishing licenses are not included. The current published guidance is about US$17 for eight days for anglers over 16. We will help you arrange yours after booking; confirm current requirements before your trip.

Choose your boat & time

Reserve in Rezervaya. Online bookings currently confirm without waiting for a deposit, and no payment is taken on the booking page. The team arranges the 30% deposit separately.

Prices are for the whole trip, per private boat—not per hour.

Before you book

Booking & cancellation

Online bookings currently confirm without waiting for the 30% deposit; we arrange payment separately. Accepted methods are Visa, Mastercard, cash and PayPal. The remaining balance is due on the day. Cancel at least seven days before your trip for a full deposit refund. With fewer than seven days’ notice, or a no-show, the deposit is kept unless the date is resold. If the captain cancels for weather or a mechanical problem, you receive a full refund. Fish are never guaranteed; unused time is not refunded if you end your trip early.
