We'll be departing the dock and fishing in the areas surrounding the Upper Keys.

The day is a mixture of fishing, ecotour and sightseeing in some of the world's most pristine waters. Fishing in the Florida Keys is an experience both above and below the waterline. The best part is that there's no need to worry about seasickness since we'll be in the shallow protected nearshore waters of the Florida Keys. Everything you need for fishing is provided and all you need to bring is your personal items, food and drinks. The boat is equipped with an ice chest to keep all your items cold.
