Private · $2,299
6 Hour
A focused half day built around one target, on your schedule.
What this trip is
A private charter is not a fixed itinerary. You tell your captain what you want out of the day and the plan gets built around that, rather than the other way round.
Six hours is enough to commit properly to one target. It suits a family with younger anglers, a group who want a solid trip without a full day on the water, or anyone with a specific fish in mind and no interest in splitting the day between two plans.
Departure time is set during planning rather than fixed in advance.
Who it suits
Families, first-timers, and anyone with one specific target in mind.

Other ways to fish this water
Tell your captain what you want out of the day and we build the plan around it. Trophy hunt, cooler fill, first-timers in the family, or a full day offshore chasing whatever is chewing. Departure times get set during planning.
What to expect
Before you step aboard
The details that make the difference between a good day and a long one.
Water, food, towels and sunscreen. All bait, tackle and equipment is provided by Gulfport Charters. One rule we hold firm on: no spray sunscreen on board.
Full-day offshore charters meet at the marina at 5AM. Custom charter departure times are set with your captain during planning.
Cancellations within 7 days of the trip forfeit the deposit. If we cancel for weather, or the captain calls it for any reason, you are not penalized — pick a makeup date or take a full refund.
Yes. That said, these are long days in the Florida elements. We don't recommend them for young children, elderly adults, or anyone with pre-existing conditions.
Please do. Before your charter you tell your captain what you want to focus on and they build a plan to maximize your time on the water. Or just show up and let us run it.
Dates go fast in season
We're not satisfied until you're hooked.
Tell us when you want to go and what you want to catch. A captain answers personally, usually the same day.
