Route
How does the day work?
The private van takes you to Bávaro before Sherlock heads offshore for fishing with a captain and mate.
- pass by
1. Atlantic Ocean
The captain and mate help you fish in the Atlantic. A fighting chair supports the fishing, with a cabin available between turns.
The shortest charter runs 4 hours. Longer bookings give you 6 or 9 hours before returning to the Bávaro boarding area. Private transport then returns your group to the resort.
Pickup and meeting point
- Pickup area: Your private van serves Punta Cana and Bávaro. Collection also covers Cap Cana and Uvero Alto, with Macao on the pickup list.
- Gate or lobby: Check the assigned hotel gate or lobby before departure. Resorts such as Meliá and Majestic use the main security gate.
- Time and room: Your hotel pickup needs a separate time from the 7:30 a.m. departure. The operator needs your room number after check-in, so the booking alone doesn't finish the pickup arrangements.
- Boarding: Boarding is at the old public Jellyfish marina on Playa Bibijagua. A small boat transfers you from shore to Sherlock.
Before you book
- Check your hotel's pickup point before the trip. Some resorts use the security gate instead of the lobby.
Fit
Is this tour right for you?
Parties of up to 6 fit Sherlock if offshore fishing is the main plan for the day. Children must be over 6 and accompanied by an adult. The 4-hour version suits you if a morning is enough. Lunch isn't part of that option.
For an afternoon start, Mar-Quesa leaves at 1 p.m. from $600 per boat for up to 8. For a longer session with sandwiches, Fortuna offers 6 hours from $849 per boat for up to 8.
Who it's not for
- Families with children aged 6 or younger
- Groups larger than 6
- Pregnant travelers or those with spinal injuries
- Travelers unable to meet the moderate fitness requirement
Good to know
Know before you go
The charter accepts children over 6 with an adult. Moderate fitness is needed for the offshore outing. The charter isn't recommended during pregnancy or with spinal injuries, so the cabin doesn't make the trip suitable for every traveler.
Towels and sunscreen are excluded from your charter. Bring both for the time offshore. Fishing tackle and bait are included along with the license, so your own packing is separate from the equipment needed to fish with the crew.
Your room number is needed after hotel check-in. Some resorts use their main security gate for pickup, including Hard Rock and Majestic. Your exact collection time needs arranging separately from the boat's start so everyone meets the van correctly.
Boarding starts at the old public Jellyfish marina on Playa Bibijagua. A small boat carries you from the shore to Sherlock. That extra transfer is part of reaching the fishing vessel, so your group doesn't step straight from the van aboard.
Your private charter is for up to 6 guests. Higher booking form limits don't enlarge Sherlock's stated passenger allowance. The ticket is mobile only and booking acceptance is instant, with the room number and pickup details still needing attention.
Bad weather can cancel the fishing trip. Your own cancellation gets a full refund at least 24 hours before departure, with no refund after that. Check your group's plans before the cutoff if the charter date is still unsettled.

People also ask
- What is the price of Big Marlin's Sherlock 39 fishing charter?
The 4-hour charter costs from $749 per boat for up to 6. Your group has the boat privately with hotel transport included. Fishing equipment and the license come with the booking, so you don't need to arrive with your own rods to join the offshore session.
- How long can you fish aboard Sherlock 39 in Punta Cana?
The shortest charter runs for 4 hours. You can choose 6 or 9 hours for more time offshore, with every option starting at 7:30 a.m. Your pickup is arranged before the boat trip, so it needs its own place in the morning's schedule.
- Is lunch included on the Sherlock 39 charter?
The 4-hour option doesn't include lunch. Sandwiches are part of the 6-hour option, which gives you food during the longer session. Cooking your catch is outside the charter price, so landing a fish doesn't add a prepared meal to your booking.
- Does the Sherlock 39 fishing boat have a bathroom?
Yes, Sherlock 39 has a cabin with a toilet and shower. Those facilities are available during the offshore charter, including the 4-hour option. They give your group somewhere to take a break without making the fishing outing a substitute for a beach cruise.
- Does Sherlock 39 include pickup from Uvero Alto or Cap Cana?
Yes, private resort transport covers Uvero Alto and Cap Cana. The boat's 7:30 a.m. departure isn't a universal pickup time for those areas. Your hotel's collection point and time need arranging, with the return ride included after the charter ends.
