Captain Javier consistently delivers exceptional fishing experiences out of San Juan, with reviewers praising his deep knowledge of local waters and genuine dedication to putting clients on fish. Multiple anglers highlight how he works tirelessly throughout each trip, switching locations and tactics when needed until guests hook into tarpon, snook, and other prized species. His boat is described as clean and well-maintained, and he operates close to San Juan for convenient access. What really sets him apart is his approach with all skill levels. Families rave about how patient and educational he is with kids, taking time to coach young anglers through fights and share insights about Puerto Rican waters and culture. Even experienced fishermen appreciate his willingness to teach and his friendly, relaxed demeanor that makes the day enjoyable whether fish are biting immediately or require more effort to find. Several guests specifically mention returning for second trips or planning to fish with him again on future Puerto Rico visits.
Captain Javier Santiago Aldrey is as good as guide you could ever ask for. He spoke excellent English so it was very easy to communicate. He was extremely knowledgeable and a very skilled fisherman. We landed 5 good sized Tarpon, and I lost another 3. Tons of action and it was an absolute pleasure speaking with Javier during the trip. A++ highly recommend!
