Destin Princess & Destiny Party Boat Fishing

Destin Princess and Destiny operate together as Destin Party Boat Fishing, offering individual tickets and whole-boat private charters from Destin Fishing Fleet Marina. This is one fleet profile, covering both vessels and the practical differences between a family ticketed outing and a larger private event.

Contact and booking details

The fleet and crew

The company's history says the 72-foot Destiny was custom-built by G&S after demand exceeded the capacity of its original Destin Princess operation. Crew biographies introduce Captains Dennis Kendrick and Steve Allen. Both boats are described as air-conditioned, with separate men's and women's restroom facilities.

The website lists capacities of 41 and 56, but one private-booking form reverses the vessel labels used elsewhere. Confirm the specific boat and allowed party size in the written quote rather than choosing solely from that form.

Trips and ticket prices

Trips range from a four-hour children's outing to 18-hour offshore fishing. The FAQ describes six and eight hours as common choices, and says roughly half the total trip may be travel time. The main fishing method is bottom fishing, with crew instruction rather than a requirement for casting experience.

The FAQ gives approximate children's-trip fares of $75 for a child and $85 for an adult, with longer trips reaching $250 or more. Private trips are advertised from $3,300, with the total changing by vessel, duration and passenger count. Check the live booking price for the exact sailing.

Included equipment and extra costs

The operator provides rods, reels, tackle, bait, ice and fishing-license coverage. Personal rods require crew approval and braided line is not allowed. Food and drinks are not sold onboard, so guests bring their own in a small cooler.

The FAQ lists fish cleaning at $0.50 per pound, paid in cash at the dock, and suggests a 15–20% crew gratuity. Those costs are separate from the ticket. Legal retained fish can be taken home; a meal prepared by a local restaurant is a separate arrangement.

Families, cancellation and departure

The operator recommends a minimum age of five and suggests the four-hour trip for children aged five to nine. Confirm your child's eligibility and the best duration before booking.

Published general terms allow a full refund with at least 24 hours' notice and no refund for last-minute cancellations or no-shows. Captain-directed unsafe-weather cancellations allow rescheduling or a refund; confirm whether private charters have different terms. Board at 210 Harbor Boulevard behind Brotula's, using the directions and parking information in the confirmation.

Details checked September 26, 2026, using the operator’s published information. Rates, boats, meeting points and policies can change; confirm the final trip details directly. Listed species describe possible targets, not a guaranteed catch or an open harvest season.
