The Tortuga at the slip04

Board the Tortuga

Look for the green hull on the last slip at the end. That is us — climb aboard and we cast off on time.

Before you board

Come 30 minutes early.

A little buffer means we leave on time and you are not the person the whole boat is waiting on. Here is everything to sort before you walk down.

01

Check in 30 minutes early

Meet the crew on the dock at Slip F-1 half an hour before your scheduled departure so we can get everyone aboard and leave on time.

02

Bring cash for harbor fees

A $1 per-person Ocean Stewardship Fee and a temporary $2 per-guest fuel surcharge are due at check-in.

03

Wear soft-soled shoes

Soft soles, a hat and sunscreen. Whatever you want to eat and drink comes with you — we supply the cooler and ice.

04

Nonresident fishing license

The state of Hawaii requires all nonresident recreational marine fishers age 15 and over to purchase a fishing license. It's easy to do, and you'll get your license instantly. Get your license at fishing.hawaii.gov
