    Best! Day! Ever! Incredible Boat, Captain and Crew!

    Full Day Trip – Offshore on March 12, 2024 • 2 adults

    I’m already planning a trip back to fish with Capt Filipe!!!! Captain Filipe and his brother worked extremely hard for my wife and I. We had one goal and that was to catch a sailfish. Even though the weather was tricky (bad winds) the captain was very honest and straightforward that it was going to be hard to find a Sail in the conditions at hand. We ended up catching a Sailfish, which had been a 15 year dream of mine! I’m certain that we only hooked up due to the hard work, knowledge and perseverance of captain Filipe and his first mate. If you’re looking for a true blue water experience, fish with these guys, the crew and vessel are top notch! Tight Lines!

    Experienced fisher - first time sea fishing

    Full Day Trip – Inshore on April 3, 2024 • 2 adults

    This was a full day fishing trip around the islands and somewhat off-shore - we were casting, jigging, trolling with lures and live bait. Captain Felipe found good spots in the first few hours where we were catching a lot of fish: white tuna, snapper, rooster, grouper - at a certain point we were just throwing them back in the water. I highly recommend Vela Vivaz. Overall the communication was good, we had a big adventure and had lot of fun.

    Fly fishing

    Half Day Trip – Inshore on March 6, 2025 • 2 adults

    The morning was excellent! Caught fish on the fly. Although we didn’t hook rooster fish we had multiple shots at them. Can’t wait to return and fish again!
