Choose a general offshore day or swordfish trip

Four-, six- and eight-hour offshore packages cover a mix of live-bait fishing, trolling, kite fishing, jigging and bottom work. Potential targets include tuna, wahoo, mahi, sailfish, snapper and grouper. The operator links its choices to the season and conditions. Share the group's priorities beforehand so the crew can explain which methods make sense for the booked hours.

Swordfishing is advertised as a separate twelve-hour commitment. The detailed trip page describes deep dropping with electric reels and substantial specialist tackle. That is a different day from a short mixed-species outing, involving a much longer offshore schedule. Ask about the start and return times, expected travel and the group's comfort with a full day on the Atlantic.

The Freeman platform

The 42LR is described as a 2018 Freeman with four Yamaha 300-horsepower outboards. Published equipment includes offshore tackle, Garmin electronics, an EPIRB, inflatable life rafts and child and adult life jackets. Confirm the passenger limit and available shade when enquiring, because the reviewed text provides extensive equipment detail without a clear universal guest maximum.

Fishing licences, bait, ice, tackle and crew are listed as included. Guests bring food, drinks, non-spray sunscreen, sunglasses, hats and suitable non-slip footwear. Fish that can legally be retained may be prepared by the crew, with cleaning and vacuum sealing described on the trip pages. Explain any catch-to-table plans before departure.

Final arrangements at Haulover

Request the specific Sunny Isles boarding point and parking details directly from the operator. Some homepage starting prices differ from the more detailed swordfish page, making a current written quote useful. Confirm gratuity expectations, deposit terms and weather decisions at booking. The same company offers sandbar trips and tournament participation; those have their own objectives and should be arranged separately.

Details checked October 21, 2026, against published operator information. Confirm rates, departure details and policies directly before booking. Fishing targets depend on conditions, applicable seasons and the trip selected.
