Galveston Fishing Boat Rentals operates out of Hitchcock, Texas, offering a selection of rental boats for fishing and recreational outings on West Galveston Bay and the Gulf Coast. The fleet includes a 20' Sea Hunt, a 20' Marshall, and a 23' Hydrasports, each available for private rental. Guests can target local species such as Speckled Trout and Redfish, or choose non-fishing activities like tubing, dolphin watching, and sunset cruises.
Each rental boat is equipped with GPS and coolers to support navigation and on-water comfort. The 23' Hydrasports offers half- and full-day rental options, while the 20' Sea Hunt and 20' Marshall provide versatile platforms for fishing and family outings. Wildlife viewing opportunities include dolphins and, on occasion, sea turtles along the Gulf Coast.
Reservations are arranged through Galveston Fishing Boat Rentals and are for private use of the listed boats. The business lists trips focused on fishing, tubing, dolphin watching, and coastal sightseeing from Hitchcock into West Galveston Bay and nearby Gulf waters.
