Captain Charles, the owner and operator in this beautiful paradise of Kona, Hawaii, invites you and your family to join him for a spectacular day of big game fishing for our fabled Blue Marlin, Ono, Ahi and Spearfish.

He has been fishing for over 40 years in California, Mexico, Cabo San Lucas, Texas and Hawaii. As a Chief Fire Officer and Captain of a beautiful, pristine world class 43′ Hatteras Convertible, he has a passion for fishing and being on the ocean.

In 2013 he and his crew boated a 1058 lb. giant blue marlin and became a member of the World Grander Club, celebrating the catching of a marlin weighing over 1000 lbs.

Due to some temporary health issues, Charles may or not be on board on any given day. There will always be a credentialed Captain and Crew on the boat who is familiar with Kona local waters and experienced fisherman who he has personally selected to represent him.

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.
