Canaveral Kings Sport Fishing Charters
Embark on a 7-hour offshore fishing adventure in Port Canaveral with expert guides from Canaveral Kings. Perfect for all skill levels, this trip promises exciting catches and memorable moments on Florida's stunning Gulf waters.
Canaveral Kings Sport Fishing Charters operates out of Port Canaveral, Florida, offering a broad range of guided fishing trips for anglers of all skill levels. The fleet includes a custom 24’ Hoog and a 23’ center console used for nearshore and offshore excursions.
Trips range from short 4-hour nearshore outings to extensive 10-hour Gulf Stream trolling and 10-hour hardcore bottom fishing adventures targeting deep-water species. Nearshore options explore waters close to Port Canaveral and Cocoa Beach, where anglers can pursue snapper, flounder, red drum, sting rays and near-coastal sharks while enjoying views near the Kennedy Space Center. Short family-friendly 4-hour trips depart aboard a 23’ center console and emphasize a balance of sightseeing and catching.
Offshore half-day and full-day trips run 5 to 9 hours and travel 1 to 35 miles offshore to target pelagic species such as mahi, kingfish, tuna, sailfish, tarpon and sharks using techniques like slow trolling and bottom fishing. Extended Gulf Stream trolling trips focus on mahi, tuna and sailfish at the edge of the current. Hardcore bottom fishing departs at dawn for 10-hour sessions accessing 200–600 foot depths and uses advanced electric reels to target tilefish and grouper.
Specialty shark trips pursue large bull, sandbar and hammerhead sharks 10–20 miles offshore with heavy-duty tackle. Canaveral Kings Sport Fishing Charters offers a clear menu of trip lengths, target species and equipment so anglers can select the adventure that fits their goals. Booking details and current availability are listed on The Adventure Collective profile for the business.
