Head out for an inshore adventure aboard a 23' custom style boat a mix between a panga and a skiff, this boat is comfortable to fish from, has a bow casting area, and also includes a shade top shield you from the sun's incessant rays! Targeting the inshore around Punta Cana is usually super productive as they have a plethora of Bonefish, Permit, and Tarpon cruising the waters down there. If you're looking to target Tarpon be warned these fish are big and smart down there. You will mostly find them sticking closer to the marina, and early in the morning or late in the afternoon are usually the best times to see big tarpon cruising the crystal clear waters.
