Endless Summer Charters is a Fort Myers, Florida-based charter company offering a wide range of private and guided boating experiences. The company runs inshore and offshore fishing charters from Fort Myers and Sanibel, specialty trips such as shark fishing and tarpon fishing, and combo excursions that combine shelling, dolphin watching, and lunch at local spots like Cabbage Key. Private charters accommodate intimate groups and include options for dolphin watching and ash spreadings for up to six people. Shark fishing trips are four hours long and can yield sharks averaging 2–6 feet, with reports of up to 30 sharks encountered on a single outing. Offshore trips target species such as grouper, shark, and mackerel on artificial reefs and wrecks, while inshore trips focus on Redfish, Snook, and Trout. Endless Summer Charters also offers specialty conservation-focused trips by participating in permit tagging and release alongside the Bonefish & Tarpon Trust, supporting catch-and-release practices. Wine tours and custom combo experiences provide non-fishing alternatives, including a six-hour private wine tour with visits to three family-owned wineries, transportation, and a gourmet picnic lunch. Guests can choose half-day, full-day, and multi-hour options (4, 6, 8, or 10 hours depending on the trip).
