While technically not its own city, South Beach might as well be its own country. This small area in Miami Beach is best known for it art deco architecture, boutique hotels, and outrageous nightlife, but it also happens to be nearby to some of the best fishing charters the Miami area has to offer. On one of our South Beach fishing trips, you'll head out on the turquoise blue waters off Miami to hunt some of our local favorites, including sailfish, swordfish, tuna, wahoo, and kingfish. We also fish for sharks, grouper, snapper, and more. Our fishing boats are located a short drive from South Beach and all Miami Beach hotels.

Center Console

Type Center Console
Length 35 feet (10.7 m)
Manufacturer Sea Hunter
Max Passengers 6 (4 recommended)
Air Conditioning No
Bathroom No
Kid Friendly Yes
A center console charter is a unique experience since these types of boats are quicker and more agile than a typical sportfish. Another advantage of this boat is that it offers 360 degree fishability so you won't lose fish under the boat. You'll feel "closer" to the water, which is great if you don't mind getting splashed, but not great for those who are prone to seasickness.
