St. George Island, FL is home to some of the Gulf Coast’s most beautiful, serene beaches. What could be better than making this stunning shoreline your own personal fishing spot? With Xtreme Off The Beach Outfitters, you’ll head to a stretch of the island’s unspoilt coastline, set your rods in the sand, and cast off from the beach itself. From there, you’ll soak up the sun as you wait for a variety of world-famous fish to bite!
Captain Richard Huggins is the man behind this outfitter, which sets itself apart from other fishing adventures in one major way – no boat is needed to reach the hotspots. When you join Capt. Richard, you won’t have to worry about getting sea sick, or spending lots of time traveling. Instead, you’ll be able to enjoy St George Island’s beautiful nature and sandy beaches, while learning how to shoreline fish like a pro at the same time.
Capt. Richard welcomes groups of up to 6 guests to join him on an adventure – especially newbies! Shoreline fishing is a great opportunity for families with little ones to experience some top-notch angling action, without the restrictions of a boat-based charter. You’ll be able to cast off when you like, and explore the beach as you wait for the fish to bite. When they do, Capt. Richard will show you the best tips and tricks to use to reel them in!
Beach-based fishing doesn’t mean you have to compromise on the species you’re targeting. Depending on when you visit, feisty Snook, Permit, Redfish, King Mackerel, and plenty more will be available. Your captain will have you using anything from medium tackle to spinning gear to land your catch. Feeling up to a big challenge? Join Capt. Richard for the chance to battle Shark species, including Hammerhead and Tope, using heavy gear.
Each trip includes top-quality rods, reels, bait, and tackle. Bring a license and your camera – with Xtreme Off The Beach Outfitters, you’ll be making memories that you’ll want to capture and remember forever!

3 Hour Trip – Surf Fishing on May 14, 2023
Had an outstanding day with Capt Richard and Michelle. They came to our rental unit and we fished directly behind the house on St George’s Island FL. Richard is a wealth of fishing knowledge and he took his time explaining casting location, rig configuration, and fishing techniques. Our family had a great time and would highly recommend Richard and Michelle for a shore fishing experience.

My family of 4 adults nd 2 kids ages 7 and 10 had a great experience with Cap't Richard. He was well equipped and experienced in fishing from the beach, not something you see often. We had a great time, caught a small shark and a few other small fish but got some good tips for future surf fishing. We'll be back!

Captain Richard was FANTASTIC! He came to our rental and we fished right off our beach. We were catching fish and no one else on the beach appeared to be catching fish. Captain Richard was a source of vast knowledge and entertainment. We highly recommend Captain Richard and the beach fishing experience and will do it again when we return to the area! We caught a variety of fish including a SHARK!

Capt. Richard has been fishing since he was 10 years old, and it's fair to say that angling is one of his biggest passions. He likes to say that he was born into it, so it was only natural that he'd find a way to turn this passion into his full-time job! He runs Xtreme Off The Beach Charters, which introduce anglers to fishing from a whole new perspective – rather than heading out on a boat, all adventures take place from various shorelines all over Florida and Georgia. Capt. Richard's charter started out as a land-based fishing team that participated in different Red Drum and Shark tournaments off the beach. He saw how popular this type of fishing was, not just with hardcore fishermen, but also with families and budding anglers. Now, he works alongside 9 other guides to provide incredible, unique adventures across two states – and even better, they're suitable for the whole family! Anglers of all ages and skill levels are warmly welcomed to try out this incredible style of fishing.
