Odyssey Charters
Set off from Cape Canaveral aboard Odyssey Charters for a half-day fishing trip targeting barracuda, sailfish, and king mackerel. Perfect for anglers of all levels seeking a focused, memorable offshore adventure.
Odyssey Charters operates from Cape Canaveral, Florida, offering private fishing and memorial boat experiences aboard the vessel Odyssey. The company runs a variety of trips including Half‑Day Fishing, 3/4 Day Fishing, Full Day trips, specialized Shark Fishing excursions, and Sunset Ash Burial ceremonies. Each trip allows guests to bring personal snacks and beverages while the crew focuses on safety, navigation, and fishing guidance.
Fishing trips target regional species such as barracuda, king mackerel, grouper, snapper, and sailfish, with offshore Shark Fishing traveling between five and twenty-five miles to reach shark habitats. The full day and multi-quarter day options provide extended time to reach prime fishing grounds and to pursue larger or deeper species. The Sunset Ash Burial is conducted as a private, small-group ceremony in Port Canaveral, designed to offer a calm, reflective setting away from crowded cemeteries.
Captain and crew duties include boat operation, passenger safety, and assistance with fishing techniques, while passengers provide personal food and drink. Odyssey Charters emphasizes experienced seamanship and adherence to local boating and fishing regulations. All trips are launched from Cape Canaveral, a well-known departure point for nearshore and offshore Florida fishing.
Prospective customers can choose trips based on target species, trip length, and desired experience—recreational fishing or a quiet memorial service. Odyssey Charters presents clear, activity-specific offerings and prioritizes safety, comfort, and memorable time on the water for families, anglers, and small groups. Booking information, trip availability, and licensing details are available directly through Odyssey Charters' official booking channels and local marinas.
