Carmen heads offshore, jumping aboard a charter boat for a day on the open ocean.
- Offshore charters travel beyond coastal waters, often reaching 20–100km out to sea
- Trips target pelagic species such as tuna, marlin and mahi-mahi
- Charters typically depart early and run for 6–10 hours or full-day experiences
- Time on board is split between travel, fishing, and moving between offshore locations
- Vessels are purpose-built for offshore conditions and equipped with GPS, sonar and fish-finding technology
- Experienced skippers adjust fishing spots throughout the day based on weather and fish activity
- All fishing gear, bait and safety equipment is provided onboard
- Weather and sea conditions play a key role in shaping each trip
