Key West Fishing Deals is a charter operator based in Key West, Florida, offering a range of shared and private sportfishing experiences. The company lists half-day (4-hour), three-quarter-day (6-hour), and full-day (8-hour) offshore trips that target species including Mahi, Wahoo, Black Fin tuna, Sailfish, and Marlin, and accepts special requests for tarpon and shark.
Private charters are available aboard Hatteras-class vessels — the Cowboy 36 Foot Hatteras and the Cowgirl II 38 Foot Hatteras — with private options accommodating up to six guests. Shark Adventures is promoted as a specialty offering with a 60-year legacy, aiming to target large sharks such as Mako and tiger sharks. When weather conditions favor inshore fishing, the Windy Day Fishing Escape becomes a half-day inshore option targeting snappers, groupers, and coastal sharks, positioned as family-friendly and action-focused.
Trip formats include shared departures (Shared Half Day, Shared Three Quarter Day, Shared Full Day) and private charters in multiple durations to match group needs. Crews are described as professional captains and experienced staff who handle baiting, rigging, and fish handling to assist anglers of all skill levels. Safety procedures, species targeting, and tailoring trips to guest requests are emphasized in trip descriptions. Booking and availability for all listed trips are handled through The Adventure Collective listings. Operating from Key West, Florida, Key West Fishing Deals focuses on delivering offshore and inshore sportfishing experiences suited for both novice and experienced anglers.
