Florida Keys Fishing

Flats, reef and offshore.

Bonefish on the flats in the morning, mahi offshore after lunch. Easy flights, great food, and boats for every skill level.

Overview

Why Florida Keys.

The Keys are a 100-mile string of islands with shallow flats on one side and the Gulf Stream on the other. Islamorada calls itself the sport fishing capital of the world, Key West has the offshore fleet, and Marathon sits in the middle with access to both. Flights are easy, the food is great, and boats range from skiffs for two to big center consoles for the whole group.

Things to do

Build the days around Florida Keys.

Add any of these to your trip. Your planner books them with people we trust, at no fee to you.

Flats day

Poled skiff for bonefish, permit and tarpon. The reason a lot of people come here.

Reef & wreck trip

Snapper, grouper and amberjack, and usually the busiest rods of the trip.

Offshore for mahi & sailfish

The Gulf Stream is close here, so a full day offshore is an easy add.

Backcountry skiff day

Snook, redfish and tarpon in the mangroves and around Florida Bay.

Snorkel or dive the reef

Boat trip to the only living coral barrier reef in the country, gear included.

A night in Key West

Sunset at Mallory Square and dinner somewhere loud. Worth the drive down.
