About Your Trip

Located in the heart of the beautiful Pacific Riviera, Panama. Our boat is a 30-foot Bertram powered by twin diesel engines. She’s fully air-conditioned and features a clean, private indoor restroom for your comfort. We’re equipped with top-quality fishing gear and tackle—everything you need for a great day on the water is provided.

We run a professional and friendly operation with an experienced captain and mate onboard every trip. Whether you prefer water or sodas, we’ve got you covered. Our goal is to make your time with us enjoyable, safe, and memorable.

Our team is proud to be a family-friendly charter. We love introducing children to the excitement of fishing and helping families create memories that last a lifetime. With nearly 50 years of charter fishing experience, I know how to put you on the fish—and more importantly, how to make sure you have a great time doing it.

Comfortable

Quality

ith nearly 50 years of professional fishing experience and over 40 years as a licensed 100-ton captain, I’ve spent my life on the water. My home base for most of my career was Islamorada in the Florida Keys, where I guided anglers through some of the best fishing grounds in the world.

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to thousands of quality, vetted fishing, hunting, and other outdoor sports guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
