We took the 1/2 day excursion leaving the resort around 7:30 am. Weather was perfect. Water was beautiful. Staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommend this excursion!!

As with many other reviews on here, you’ve been warned. This was by far the worst “fishing” experience of our lives. We booked through Sandals and were really looking forward to it because we had heard about the great fishing in St Lucia. We are experienced sport fishermen have fished up and down the pacific coast, the Gulf of Mexico and off the coast of Florida. The typical “this is fishing not catching” lead off the trip. There were 8 on the boat + captain and mate. The seas were so rough! 2 passengers were so sick they could barely hold there heads up. It was the worst boat ride we had ever been on. The exhaust fumes from the motors were intoxicating amplifying the unpleasantness of the ride.
As far as fishing goes, there was no rhyme or reason to the method. The set the bait and then took off trolling for the next 3 hours at the fastest trolling speed I’d ever experienced. There is no use of electronics or tech to try and locate fish. You basically are just driving around hoping for the best. Your personal fishing experience is your 10 minutes in the chair hoping you may get to reel something in.
It didn’t seem to matter whether anyone caught anything or not. Not one passenger on this boat was smiling. The captain later shared with my husband that fishing season basically ends in October…would have been nice to know before we spent the $400.

We had a great time fishing with Dwight and Lance. The day was beautiful and seas were calm. Everyone on board caught something - 3 barracuda and 2 wahoo. Call Captain Mike's and ask for these two.

Noah and Matthew were awesome. It was a hot, slow fishing day. So, when we reeled in a 300# + Bluefin Marlin we were ecstatic. Would definitely go again. Price was very reasonable as well.

We had a nice time out on the water for our 4 hour deep sea fishing tour. Unfortunately the fish weren't biting, however our guides changed the bait often and were very friendly and knowledgeable. It would have been a 5/5 if we caught something (which of course isn't their fault)-- still definitely recommend the tour. Bonus: we did see a pod of dolphins!

Josh and the Captain were great, had a good day at sea followed by a 300lb Blue Marlin on the line for 1.5 hours. Amazing experience for everyone, we were knackered! Thanks again

We paid for all day and were brought back to the dock 30 minutes early. We caught one fish, and they rarely changed the bait. If you go deep sea fishing, they should REGULARLY change the bait. Be sure they do this often.

We had a great day with Mario and Matthew. Unfortunately the fish were not biting as we wanted but they worked hard to make it happen. They were a lot of fun to spend the day with. The boat was very clean and well stocked with beverages. We would fish with them again if we ever return to St. Lucia.

This tour is the worst fishing experience I have ever had in my 50 years of life and fishing many tours. You don't actually get to fish, you sit there while someone else fishes and they allow you take turns sitting in a chair. One guy fishes and if he catches anything, you get to reel it in, if it is your turn in the chair. On this four hour trip, I was in the chair a maximum of 20 minutes. No fish were caught at all by anyone. The guy fishing kept talking about how he catches huge Marlin and I doubt he could catch anything. The ride is 4 hours long and it was the roughest ride on a boat I've ever had and I own a boat. You can't even use the restroom without getting battered. This trip is a complete ripoff and total waste of time and money. You've been warned.
