Lobster/spearfishing combo trip
4 hr– Lobster/Spearfishing Combo on August 19, 20254 adults

We had an absolutely incredible experience on this lobster and spearfishing charter! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. Ray and Leah took the time to explain the process, share safety tips, and point out the best spots, which made the trip both fun and educational. The equipment was in excellent condition, and the boat was clean. We were able to catch plenty of lobster for each of us and try our hand at spearfishing, and the guides were right there with us—patient, encouraging, and clearly passionate about what they do. Their local knowledge of the waters made all the difference, and we felt like we were in the best hands possible. Ray and Leah made sure everyone had an amazing time and got the most out of the day. We left with not only a great catch of lobster and fish, but also some incredible memories. If you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure on the water, I can’t recommend this charter enough. We’ll definitely be booking again!
