Sea Dream Offshore Charters

Sea Dream Offshore Charters operates out of the legendary sportfishing town of Hatteras, NC. They specialize in getting groups onto their own dream catch in the deep, rich waters of the Gulf Stream. These waters are famous for their deep sea action, with monster Marlin, Sailfish, Tuna, and more keeping anglers busy throughout the year.

The “Sea Dream” is a 45’ sportfisher built right here in North Carolina by the renowned boat builder Bobby Sullivan. She may be in her forties, but this hardy vessel can still compete with the best of them, cruising at 22 knots and boasting a huge range of tech and equipment.

The boat has GPS and fishfinder to sound out the deep water of the Gulf Stream. Once you have locked onto your target, her outriggers will spread your lines far and wide as you troll either live baits or lures. The fish in these parts take no prisoners, but tournament-grade tackle from Penn International and Shimano will make sure you hold your own against the best of them.

And even the worst of them here is the best of them in most places in the country! Bluefin Tuna are Hatteras’ signature species, but you can also target Yellowfin Tuna, Blue and White Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and so much more on these trips.

Whatever you find, you will be in for the trip of a lifetime, with an experienced, local captain at the helm and a skilled mate keeping you hooked up all day long. So what are you waiting for? Head to Hatteras to do battle with some of the biggest fish in the sea!

Captain Charlie has always had a passion for fishing. He has spent his life fishing in both the Outer Banks and the Chesapeake Bay, and made the move to guiding after retiring from Norfolk Fire Service. After captaining boats for a variety of operators, Capt. Charlie bought the Sea Dream and started running charters of his own. The Gulf Stream is his favorite playground, and nothing makes him happier than taking groups out to these incredible waters in search of monster pelagic species like Marlin and Tuna.
