“Quick transfer from the hotel. Driver was named Junior. Very friendly and spoke good English Our boat was good. A bit small but OK for 5 people. Ariel and Primo were the captain and first mate. They were really helpful and friendly. We caught quite a few fish and Primo which was exciting as we're first timers. The actual time on the boat is 4 hours, not the entire excursion. The boat didn't stop moving the whole time as they trawl the lines looking for a bite. Note. This is trip is not for those who get seasick or queasy about seeing live fish being caught.”
