Key West · DEEP-SEA & REEF FISHING CHARTERS
6 reviewed
The Gulf and the Atlantic meet off Key West, so the fishing runs deep and varied — reef snapper one trip, offshore mahi and sailfish the next. These charters cover both: which are shared versus private, what gear and licence they include, and which captains put beginners on fish.
Key West reef fishing on a 64-foot catamaran. Bait, licenses, and crew help included, plus free filleting back at the dock.
“Great fun at a great price. The staff was amazing, friendly and fun. The family ate well after catching some keepers.”
Key West 6-hour party boat fishing for $85. Bait and license included, crew helps with technique, restrooms onboard.
“The Captain and crew are great. I recommend bringing Dramamine if you’re prone to sea or motion sickness. Also sunscreen is a must! You can purchase waters/sodas and snacks for $1 each but bringing your own bag of things isn't a bad idea. We didn’t catch too much on our trip, but the captain was very helpful and handed anything he hooked to participants to reel in. Overall quite a long excursion, we would have been happy with a couple hours shorter as people just looking for the experience but if your goal is to catch fish to take home, this is the trip for you!”
Private Key West deep-sea charter on Corsair 2 Sportfishing, fishing up to 18 miles offshore for mahi, wahoo, tuna, and more.
“We had a great time with Captain Jeff and Christian! They were so accommodating and the trip was five stars! Don’t bring any bananas! Had no idea that was a thing! We caught many fish in the first couple of hours and hooked four basically at the same time! Enjoyed the trip and the boat so very much! Thank you for a great experience we will never forget it!”

Private 4-hour fishing charter from Ramrod Key with shallow backcountry flats, clear water visuals, and Captain Jim’s hands-on coaching.
