Gerritt Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Heading to Punta Cana in mid April.. We are staying at the Punta Cana Princess.. just wondering what I can expect to pay for a decent charter, Does anyone have a recommendation on a charter to use? Looking to get away from the resort for a bit! G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_paul Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 (edited) G, looking at getting away there in Feb this year and been doing some research. This guy seems pretty good and is well respected on the DR message boards. http://www.mikesmarina.info/ I also went out with this fellow when I was in Puerto Plata a couple of years ago, he also does charters out of Punta Cana as well - he had a nice set up and we had a good day out there. http://www.caribbeanoceanadventures.com/fishing.htm Also, you can check this site out too - lots of good reviews and a pretty active chat place for info on Punta Cana http://debsdrtravels.proboards47.com/index.cgi Edited January 4, 2009 by steve_paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerritt Posted January 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 (edited) Steve, Thanks!!! this is exactly the type of info I was looking for!!! keep me posted if you see anything else interesting plz! Ohh.... Here is where we are staying... we wanted something smaller then the super hotels, all inclusive and somewhat private... we still have access to the larger resorts nearby for the nightlife if we need it.. Fairly newer hotel as well... http://www.puntacanaprincess.com/ G Edited January 4, 2009 by Gerritt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legacey Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Hey Gerritt, I'm heading to PP next week and staying at the Allegro Resort. I too was interested in looking into a fishing trip and added to a post that can be found here. http://debsdrtravels.proboards47.com/index...mp;page=1#90392 Just thought maybe some of this may help as well. There's a topic regarding shore fishing contained somewhere on that site too and what to bring or grab from your buffet. Maybe worth while too. I hope you have a fantastic time. Cheers, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsmith214 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Hey gerrit I was just at that resort in September.. You will enjoy it greatly. One thing--not sure what package you have--we ended up picking the honeymoon package which included imported drinks on top of domestic--well the bartenders had trouble "finding" imported booze (clamato, MGD, smirnof, baileys, etc)--- I found asking them twice to look harder and a couple bucks helped solve the problem for the week..... The fishing boats are a 15min walk down the beach--and if you deal directly with them you can cut a better deal on the spot rather then going through the hotel.. And if your getting your picture taken with the monkey---make sure to pick a nice one. I had one nearly tear out my hair!!! Hit the fondue restaurant and do the shrimp dish---its great...
