Very bad experience. Don't reccomend.
All tourist services in Punta Cana have lowered their quality. Unfortunately, this company is no exception. What is written on their website or what you're told on the phone has nothing to do with what you get when on boat. They say you can keep the catch, but if you really catch something (which doesn't happen too often) they want a big portion of the catch... The worst part is that they don't seem to understand that you have paid for the trip. The captain acts like he is doing you a favor by taking you on the boat. What is concerning is that the boat we've been with had only one working engine. The engine also had some fails in high seas, but the captain managed to start it again after a few tries. They shouldn't be allowed to go high seas with only one functioning engine. I would never recommend go fishing with this company, as I think it is a matter of time until something very bad will happen, giving their attitude.

Great day on the water!
Absolutely fantastic experience! The entire crew was professional and incredibly pleasant from start to finish. Our captain and first mate were truly excellent—they clearly knew the best spots and kept us "on the bite." During our 6 hour trip, we landed a whopping 24 fish between the two of us, and that's not even counting the few that managed to escape! A top-tier charter.

Great Fishing Snorkeling and Crew on Cana!!
Fishing trip on fishing boat CANA. A friend and I took the 4-hour morning fishing charter plus 1 hour snorkeling and had a great time. We took the same trip Oct 2024 without the snorkeling and had a great time, so booked with BIG MARLIN CHARTERS again. The private transportation with BIG MARLIN CHARTERS from our resort (Breathless) and back was on-time and provided in air-conditioned van. We were picked up at 7:30 AM from our resort and the first fishing line was in the water around 8:30 AM and Barracuda on around 9:00 AM. Captain KELBE and fishing deckhand ALFREDO did a great job and knew exactly what they were doing to give us the best chance to catch fish. We caught a total of 7 fish (4 Mahi Mahi and 3 Barracuda). Boat and tackle were great! Water was beautiful! CANA is a good size boat for a fishing party of up to 4. I would definitely book with BIG MARLIN CHARTERS again and this same boat (CANA).

GREAT FISHING CHARTER ON CANA!!
Fishing trip on fishing boat CANA. A friend and I took the 4-hour morning charter and had a great time. I asked the resort to contact BIG MARLIN CHARTERS by phone the day before to confirm our trip which they did (even though I had confirmed with them through Tripadvisor already, just wanted to make sure). The private transportation by MAX (with BIG MARLIN CHARTERS) from our resort (Breathless) and back was on-time and provided in air-conditioned van. I asked MAX if we could buy some Big Marlin Charters shirts when we were picked up and he called ahead and had them waiting at the marina ($35). We were picked up at 7:30 AM from our resort and the first fishing line was in the water around 8:30 AM. Captain KELBE and fishing deckhand ALFREDO did a great job and knew exactly what they were doing to give us the best chance to catch fish. We caught a total of 6 fish (4 Mahi Mahi, 1 Barracuda, and 1 Remora). KELBE and ALFREDO filleted and bagged the fish on ice for us to take back to our resort. Boat and tackle were great! Water was beautiful! CANA is a good size boat for a fishing party of up to 4. I would definitely book with BIG MARLIN CHARTERS again and this same boat (CANA).

Private Fishing Charters СANA 32': questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Punta Cana.
How much does Private Fishing Charters СANA 32' cost?
+
Prices start at $499 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Punta Cana usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Fishing Charters СANA 32' take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Punta Cana is not rushed.
Is Private Fishing Charters СANA 32' worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 43 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 15 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Punta Cana, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Fishing Charters СANA 32'?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Fishing Charters СANA 32' suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Fishing Charters СANA 32'?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Punta Cana can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Punta Cana and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Fishing Charters СANA 32' start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Punta Cana within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Punta Cana?
+
On Outty we rank every Punta Cana experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Punta Cana Zipline - 8 lines and a suspenseful hanging bridge, Buggy Excursion to Macau Beach and Natural Cave, Small Group Buggy Tour to Water Cave and Macao Beach. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Punta Cana?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Punta Cana?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private Fishing Charters СANA 32'?
+
Included: Use of snorkeling equipment; Alcoholic beverages; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Private Fishing Charters СANA 32' include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 204 listed pickup locations in and around Punta Cana. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private Fishing Charters СANA 32' offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Fishing Charters СANA 32'?
+
