4 star ratingA Great Place for Anglers A great spot for anglers. We fished for five days and, with one exception, the guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The offshore boats were serviceable, if not spotless, and the skiffs were all very nice. We stayed right at the marina in dated but clean rooms, and there's a great restaurant (Lazy Daze) next door (but the on-site cafe is poor). Everything is on island time so don't expect efficiency, but that's part of the charm. We would absolutely come again.

5 star ratingGreat fishing for the kiddos Great half day reef trip this morning.

Two boys 6 and 7. Wanted a fun day with plenty of action and a good crew. Found everything we were looking for!!!
Captain is a family man, and extremely nice. First mate could not have been better with the kids.

Not the best of water conditions but the A/c cabin was perfect for my green faced wife and the boys when they needed a rest

We fish a lot and can tell you that a great Capt and crew can make or break ur day

Today was a great day.

I’d recommend this crew!
