Pura Vida is a great outfit for a charter. Boat is fantastic and captain and crew knowledge is top notch. On our trip, we were targeting bottom critters and found limits and big versions of multiple grouper, Black Sea bass and lots of other species. We never had any downtime and the box was full! Can’t wait to go again.

Great experience on Pura Vida! Captain Rod is very knowledgeable and I loved this trip because they love to teach and helped me to not only enjoy fishing, but to continue learning more about offshore fishing.

Awesome time. Captain is the best and knows how to put you on the fish. Boat flies so more time spent fishing and less driving around. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. I would strongly recommend.

Best charter on the water. Very knowledgeable Captain and you can't beat the boat. Really comfortable ride. Highly suggest bringing a large cooler for all the fish you're gonna catch

Pura Vida is the nicest charter boat i have ever fished!! We were able to actually participate in the whole process. Putting out lines we baited, landing fish at boat, actually fishing instead of just reeling in fish they caught.
Eric and Rod are top notch!!!

Went fishing with my friend Jeff from Colorado in and we caught a beautiful sailfish. After that we did a little bottom fishing and we crushed them. I had so much fun I went again and took my cousin. It was a little chilly but we had so much fun catching fish it didn’t even feel cold. Great trip, these guys really know where the fish are and didn’t let us down. I would highly recommend booking a trip with them!

Eric took our family fishing and the entire experience was amazing. Erica knew about all aspects of the trip. The boat ride was smooth. We went right to where the fish were and we caught more fish than we ever thought possible. Thanks Eric for a great day.
