The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive Early for Safety Briefing
Plan to arrive 20–30 minutes before departure for check-in, orientation, and gear setup — it keeps the boat on schedule.
Sun Protection Is Non-Negotiable
Florida sun reflects off water; bring SPF 30+ sunscreen, a wide-brim hat, and polarized sunglasses to reduce glare.
Prepare for Motion Sickness
If you’re prone to seasickness, take preventative medication before boarding and choose a central seat near the boat’s centerline.
Confirm Licensing & Paperwork
Inclusions cover tackle and bait, but verify local fishing license rules and bring government ID and any booking confirmations.
