Before you book: there is no toilet on board. To get on, you wade through shallow water to a small shuttle boat, then step across to your boat. Both move with the swell. Sol de Oro has a shade cover. If this could be hard for someone in your group, message us first.

How we fish

We troll ballyhoo and lures on the drop-offs, and switch to poppers or the fly rod when the fish come up. Sailfish and marlin always go back in the water. For mahi-mahi, tuna and wahoo, we follow the rules and the captain’s call.
