Anchored in Montauk Harbor, Viking Fleet has been sharing the magic of the Atlantic for generations. Their modern vessels—highlighted by the luxurious Viking Fivestar—blend cutting-edge navigation and fish-finding technology with ...
Viking Fleet offers a range of maritime experiences from half-day fishing trips to whale watching excursions and Block Island ferry service, with most visitors coming away genuinely impressed. The crew members consistently earn praise for being helpful, encouraging, and skilled at what they do. First-time fishers particularly appreciate how patient the mates are with teaching the basics and helping with catches. The captains know how to find productive fishing spots, and several reviewers mention bringing home bags of filleted fish or spotting abundant humpback whales during wildlife trips. The fishing experiences get the most enthusiastic feedback, with people calling them trip highlights and praising crew members like Roland who go the extra mile. That said, there are occasional frustrations about boat conditions on the ferry service and questions about some operational decisions. A few visitors felt disappointed by fishing results or encountered unprofessional behavior, though these seem to be outliers rather than the norm. The overwhelmingly positive responses suggest most people find their time on the water well worth it, especially when the crew's expertise and friendliness shine through.
My husband and I set out for a half-day fishing trip on Star which left at 8 am Saturday morning. The weather was perfect and the fishing even better! Roland, the crew member, showed us the basics and was always available each time a fish was caught. The skipper moved to various spots where the fishing was plentiful. Roland filleted our catches (the ones that weren’t too small to keep) so we could bag them and bring them home to eat! This was such a great experience! Thank you Roland and crew!!
