Kid Trips:
We love kid trips. Whether an intro to fishing or just exploring please bring the kids. Our bay skiff can accommodate up to 6, and our flats boats get the kids closer to the water, depends on size of your group. We feel we have mastered the inshore fishing adventure, from manatees, dolphins, fish, crabs, sand dollars, alligators, turtles, sharks(little sharks), cast nets and island exploration. We can keep them interested , safe and have fun.

Scallop Trips, (season July 1,-September 10)
These trips are a great time for the whole family. We have made a custom flats skiff, that was designed with family scallop trips in mind. If you have the ability to swim and snorkel, this trip will open a whole new world of fun and fishing. Not to mention they taste great. Your guide will be there for instruction and keep everyone safe. We can accommodate 6 persons. Bring your own snorkel gear, if you have it, this makes sure everything fits well. If not we have gear, for most sized heads and feet. Mask, snorkel, and water shoes(dive boots are best) and flippers if desired, but not necessary. Book your trip early, if we have a good season, dates will fill up fast.
