Private Family Shark Fishing Charter = Ultimate FUN!!

Our Family Shark Fishing Charter is exclusively reserved for your family. Unlike big “head boat” tours with dozens of lines in the water, our focus is on providing an intimate and personalized experience. We cater to your group only, with a maximum of 6 people on board. By keeping the lines free, we maximize your chances of hooking multiple sharks simultaneously without any tangles.

All the same platform with small differences.

This is our “Red Boat”. She does have a bimini top if needed, yet at times we put it up to make fishing easier. Totally up to ya’ll.

This is our “White Boat”. She has a T-top that makes her specifically for fishing and much easier when we hook the big one.

This is our “Blue Boat”. She does have a bimini top if needed, yet at times we put it up to make fishing easier. Totally up to ya’ll.

Encounter Sharks and Enjoy the Catch and Release Adventure

Our goal is to take you to the shark holes where you’ll encounter an abundance of sharks. We target sharks that provide an exciting fight and are manageable for the captain to bring on board briefly for some quick pictures before releasing them back into the water unharmed. Last year, one lucky tour group even caught over 30 sharks! On average, our summer tours yield 5 to 6 shark encounters, although that’s likely the low end of what you can expect.

Rest assured, this is a catch and release experience, ensuring excitement and the preservation of marine life. We offer a 2 hour(summer only), 3 hour and even a 4-hour option that allows for more shark encounters, or exploring and viewing dolphins with your family. If you are looking for something that can please a diverse family, check out our Dolphins, Sharks & Shells adventure.

Flexible Scheduling and Preparations for an Unforgettable Adventure

In the spring through fall months (mid April through October) sharks are abundant, so feel free to book your tour at a time that works for you. If you are here November to April, or really want to get on a great tide, reach out and we will help pick a tide/time with the best opportunity. Our tours can be scheduled throughout the day, with multiple time slots available. If you are not seeing a time that fits your schedule, please email or call.

Feel free to fill our cooler with sandwiches, snacks, and drinks to keep the energy high during your adventure. And don’t forget your camera to capture the priceless moments of excitement and triumph! There’s truly nothing more thrilling for kids than engaging in this adrenaline-pumping experience.
