The experience

Deep Sea Fishing Punta Cana

Battle big-game fish including marlin, mahi-mahi, and wahoo in the rich offshore waters off Punta Cana.

The waters off Punta Cana offer some of the finest deep-sea fishing in the Caribbean. The continental shelf drops off relatively close to shore, putting anglers within easy reach of big-game species including blue marlin, white marlin, mahi-mahi (dorado), wahoo, yellowfin tuna, and sailfish.

Half-day and full-day charters depart from Punta Cana marina aboard fully equipped sport-fishing boats with experienced captains and crew. Most charters include all tackle, bait, and drinks. The fishing is productive year-round, with white marlin best from March to July and blue marlin from June to November and mahi-mahi running strong from November through May.
