Gerardo and his crew were excellent!! We did a half day morning trip with snorkeling and fishing. They first took us to the reef where a crew member took us on a private snorkeling tour. We then went out to fish and ended up catching an amberjack! Once we reached shore we had the fish cleaned and cut up, and the nearby beach cafe cooked it up for us 3 ways- ceviche, grilled, and fried- with chips, tortillas and all of the fixings for tacos. We had a wonderful time and are so thankful for the experience!

Had a great time catching Mahi on Balihoo!  We had a while marlin chasing bait, but couldn’t get him to bite great show, great equipment and excellent crew.  I can’t wait for next year.

We had an absolutely awesome time w/ Captain Balta. It was me and my younger son on a 6-hour trip. Balta was very friendly and a great communicator. He put my son on some bonito pretty quickly. And only a short time later, he had me on a blue marlin! It was truly an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend it to others.

The seas were fairly rough when we headed out to fish and the captain had decided that it would be best to not fish around the coral reefs as the boat would have been bouncing around and I agree that was a good decision.  So, we fished for barracuda’s (and caught 1).  However, the seas calmed some after about 4 hours, but we didn’t have the gear to do any other type of fishing.  Still, it was an enjoyable day and we all loved the stop at the secluded Cenote to take a dip.  Kudos to Captain Lucio and his helper.

The balihoo boat and crew were excellent! They spoke English very well for the American like me who doesn’t speech Spanish. Boat was clean and the drinks were cold!
