About
These are our family trips geared towards kids/anglers without a lot of experience. This trip is great for kids and first-timers. We refer to them as our family fun trips. Since these trips mostly leave in the afternoon, they are a great addition to your Destin experience that will teach your family the fundamentals of deep sea fishing plus a chance of bringing home your catch for a fresh seafood dinner as well as giving you the knowledge of whether or not your family will enjoy a longer trip deep sea excursion. If you keep in mind there is a lot of catch and release on this starter trip and you will have a great first experience.
Allow our friendly, experienced & professional crew to host your family on your next memorable fishing adventure!
All of our trips are family oriented and a great way to experience the Gulf of Mexico and deep sea fishing. You have additional opportunities to catch more and bigger fish with the longer trips, but some people aren’t cut out for a full day on the water.
CAUTION
Boats make some people very sleepy, and it makes a few people seasick from the motion of the boat on the water. We recommend talking to your doctor about a motion sickness cure that they would recommend. We further recommend talking to your doctor about having you take it the night before and then again the morning of the trip so that it’s in your system so that your full day will be a delightful experience (and those around you). There are several over-the-counter remedies available that a local pharmacist can also recommend. Buy sunscreen and after-sun lotions while you are there.
