Deep Sea Fishing: Complete Guide and Inspiring Photos

How much does a deep sea fishing excursion cost in Varadero?

According to our members, it costs around $400 to $500 to book a boat with captain and equipment. These boats can accommodate 4 to 6 people and usually include fishing equipment, lunch and alcoholic beverages.

One of our members clarified that this rate is for a 4-hour block. Another shared her experience: “Yes, we all had great catches! We were 4 friends on the boat for $140 CAD per person, which included lobster fishing, a lobster meal, and a swim in a beautiful location. Otherwise, it was $25 less, but it meant an earlier return to the dock. For lobster fishing, we fished from about 8:30am to 3pm.”

How to book?

Geneviève Gagné recommended booking in advance with Air Transat: “It’s best to do it before departure. Directly with Air Transat, because it’s a very popular excursion. When we went, we should have booked in advance. On site, we saw our representative every day, and we were able to go thanks to a cancellation.”

I tried to find this excursion on Air Transat or Sunwing, but I couldn't find anything. A good travel professional will certainly be able to help you. Don't hesitate to ask your tour operator's representative at your hotel. The hotel staff can also suggest interesting alternatives.

To book in advance, contacting Marlin marinas directly could be a good option: Marina Marlin Varadero . When I contacted them via Messenger last year, they responded quickly and sent me a price list for their different services and excursions.
