Fun Fishing

The pristine waters of the Florida Keys and the Great White Heron National Wildlife Refuge are the perfect setting and backdrop to create a memorable day on the water with family and friends. Many of the folks visiting Key West want to make the most of their time on the water. So that’s why we put a little bit of both fishing and snorkeling in one trip - the best of both worlds. It’s one of our most popular excursions. Your Captain will tailor a day that focuses on your interests while keeping you safe and sharing their passion about what makes our island home unique. 

Backcountry Fishing
The backcountry waters of the Florida Keys are home to a wide variety of fish species, many of which start their lives in the protective environment of the mangrove islands who’s root systems create a natural ‘cage’, protecting them from the predators that may be looking for a quick snack. This lends itself to an opportunity for all to have fun fishing, no matter their age or experience level. This trip is about bending rods! Your Captain will tailor the fishing to the least experienced angler on the boat so there is no pressure. This is a great trip for families with small children. Our captains have lots experience working with kids of all ages (yes, even the BIG kids). They will provide gentle coaching to help catch fish, whether it’s their first or 500th. Our anglers often catch a variety of snappers, small groupers, porgies, grunts, jacks, blue runners, barracuda, even sharks and sometimes lady fish, trout, redfish, mackerel.

Snorkeling:
The protected waters of this National Marine Sanctuary - offer some wonderful areas to snorkel within only 20 minutes or so from the dock and in 4 to 20 foot depths. Depending on conditions and your experience, your Captain will take you to either a sponge garden or patch coral reef, giving you the opportunity to cool off and experience some of our unique underwater ecosystems which are home to an abundance of marine life. You’ll see many of the fish you’ve caught, along with some more tropical species and other underwater wild life which may include conch, hermit crabs, Florida spiny lobster, stingrays, sea urchin, and maybe even sea stars, turtles or a cormorant bird swimming by and more. We provide all the gear you need, including snorkels, masks, fins and personal flotation but feel free to bring your own if you prefer. During the winter months you may want to consider renting a wetsuit from one of the many dive shops in the area to bring along with you.
