Havoc Charters
Discover the excitement of wreckfishing aboard Havoc Charters in Chesapeake Bay, where offshore wrecks and deep waters promise thrilling catches and memorable moments.
Havoc Charters operates from Virginia Beach, Virginia and provides a range of guided maritime experiences including at-sea burials, inshore fishing, wildlife and sunset cruises, nearshore wreckfishing, and offshore Bluefin tuna trips. Trips are led by an experienced captain and mate who manage navigation and on-water operations to deliver focused experiences for anglers, families, and memorial services.
For families arranging a meaningful farewell, Havoc Charters offers compassionate at-sea burials to scatter cremated remains 3.5 miles offshore in accordance with EPA regulations. Inshore fishing trips stay close to shore for family-friendly outings and beginner anglers, with frequent dolphin sightings. Wildlife and sunset cruises emphasize dolphin watching and opportunities to see Loggerhead sea turtles and Ospreys, with a friendly mate onboard and room for drinks and snacks. Nearshore wreckfishing targets species such as Black Seabass and Flounder, with seasonal opportunities for Mahi and King Mackerel. Offshore Bluefin tuna trips focus on Giant Bluefin Tuna and keeper-sized fish, providing sportfishing challenges for groups.
Many trips accommodate groups of up to 21 guests, allowing friends and families to share the experience. Havoc Charters presents clear trip summaries and targeted species information so customers can select the outing that matches their skill level and expectations. Based in Virginia Beach and operating across nearby inshore, nearshore, and offshore waters, Havoc Charters delivers memorable day trips for anglers, wildlife enthusiasts, and families seeking respectful sea burial services.
