Inside, the yacht is air-conditioned, has a toilet, a shower, a kitchen, a bed, a multimedia system, and a TV. The perfect place to relax in between the bites!

On your day out with Captain Nino, you’ll be heading offshore for some big action, as well as fishing the wrecks and reefs.

A fishing trip with Captain Nino aboard “Into The Blue” comes inclusive with licenses for you and your group, as well as all the necessary rods, reels, tackle, live bait, and lures.
