Contact and booking details

Choose the fishing style

Flats charters are listed for one or two anglers and focus on species such as tarpon, permit and bonefish. Light-tackle offshore options list up to four anglers, while trolling trips list up to six. Confirm the exact guide and vessel for your reservation.

Trip length and price

Four-hour, six-hour and eight-hour trips are advertised. The reviewed website pages show different price schedules. Request a current written quote rather than relying on one posted table. Ask whether gear, bait, fuel and all booking charges are included.

Equipment and comfort

The FAQ says guests fishing with the service’s licensed guides do not need to purchase a separate fishing license. Confirm the tackle supplied for your preferred method. Ask about shade, restrooms, drinks and food for the actual boat you will use.

Cancellation and arrival

The FAQ says guest cancellations can lose the deposit unless the guide’s time is rebooked. Weather-canceled trips are described as eligible for a deposit refund. Confirm the applicable terms and meeting location. The shop address may differ from your guide’s departure dock.

Details checked September 29, 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.
