Exceptional fishing trip on the ocean! The captain and crew were extremely knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure we caught fish. They were fantastic with my kids and really took the time to help them catch fish as well.

We ended up catching a ton of triggerfish (including one huge one!) and a few other smaller fish. Considering the weather wasn’t great, we did really well. We also had a 5-year-old on board, and he absolutely loved getting to drive the boat.

The staff were incredibly friendly, and we really appreciated that they cleaned the fish for us when we got back. They also recommended a local restaurant where we brought the fish, and they cooked it up for amazing fish tacos—so delicious!

We would absolutely use this company again when we return and highly recommend them.

Communication prior to the trip was very good.  We had to push our start time back and then there was a possibility of canceling just prior to heading out due to the weather.  They could not have been more accommodating. We decided to go out despite the threat of rain and we are glad we did.  2 adults and 2 children age 10/11. We caught alot of trigger fish and the crew was great.  Very patient with the boys and making it fun the entire time.  I highly recommend this boat and company. We cant wait to eat our fish tonight for dinner.  PS . we also loved the friendly compitition and banter between another boat in the same fleet (our boys def caught more fish then they did) lol. Great time had by all.

we originally booked our trip for a tuesday. however the owner kept his eye on the weather and kept us informed it may be best to reschedule. so thankfully we were able to. we purchased the gimme all package. we were picked up at our resort beach were wisked away to begin fishing. not a lot of sucess but we and the crew had fun. made it to snorkel and saw Maria the sea turtle. the guys made a wonderful lunch for us. we’ve never had ceviche but thankful we tried it. made with one of the fish we caught that morning. wouldnt hesitate to book again if we are in the area or recommend to a friend.

Wow - what an amazing experience!!

The communication and booking in advance was super easy and convenient. Meeting Yovani and crew was easy and in no time we were on the ocean. We hooked up fish within the first hour and the action did not stop. We were a group of 2 adults and one four year old. There was plenty of room on the boat, we had reshreshments and snacks. The team offered to go snorkelling but we decided against as the action did not stop. From 7:30 to 3pm, we caught: 15 red snappers, 3 trigger fish, 2 amberjacks, 2 black snappers, 1 baracuda, and 1 grouper. At the end of the day they were able to drop us off at our resort.

The team was amazing, very knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly reccomend - wonderful and memorable experience!!

You will be in great hands with The Boat. Our family of four had an amazing morning on the water. We trolled and caught bonito tuna, found a school of triggerfish while bottom fishing, and even made a sea turtle friend during a brief snorkel. On the way back, we landed more bonito and a king mackerel.

The crew was friendly, professional, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and fun. Communication with the owner was fast, clear, and transparent, and they were incredibly accommodating when we ran into an unexpected situation. That level of care really stood out.

You’ll be in very good hands with The Boat. They’re a high quality, trustworthy local business, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone fishing out of Playa del Carmen.
