Kids Time Fishing runs angling trips out of Naples and offers to educate young people about what the local fishery is all about for future generations.

This trip is not just about catching fish, you are likely to see many of the exotic bird species of our area, the elusive west indie manatee, dolphins, sea turtles, and more. We can also extend the trip to include a stop at one of the barrier islands to swim, relax on 'beach time' and do some shelling.

Port of the Islands Charters aims to tailor every trip to your specific needs, so let them know what you're after! Depending on the trip and species, you'll be using techniques like bottom fishing, drift fishing, jigging, and spinning. You're looking at 2.5-hour trips, where you'll usually go after the likes of Snook, Snapper, Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Black Drum, and Sheepshead, depending on the weather and time of year.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 24' Hurricane boat that can safely and comfortably take up to 6 anglers. All rods, reels, bait, and tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing and making memories.

As for fishing licenses, everything will be taken care of by the captain so you don't have to worry about it. These trips are catch and release, so expect to return anything you catch back to the water to fight another day and breed future stock.

The boat will be supplied with bottled water for your hydration, you are welcome to bring children & adult beverages and snacks but, please no hard alcohol.

This is a children-friendly charter, so you're most welcome to bring your kids, grandparents, uncles, aunts, and all family on for a fun fishing adventure as spectators and photographers.

Book your trip now and show your kids a great time with Kids Time Fishing.

I'm Captain Billy and I guarantee fun and education for all young ones on my boat. Let's go learn some important things about protecting the future of our environment and have some fun doing it!

perfect first time fishing experience for kids
Island fishing/shelling on February 16, 20262 adults2 children

We had such a great experience on this kids fishing charter! It was the perfect first time fishing trip for our 4 and 5 year-olds. Captain Billy and his first mate were incredibly helpful, friendly, and great with young children. They made everything fun and exciting, and our kids will be talking about what a blast they had for a long time. One of the highlights was stopping at an island for shelling. It was such a fun addition that made the trip feel like a true adventure rather than just a fishing outing. Another bonus was seeing lots of dolphins swim alongside the boat! If you’re looking for a fun fishing experience for little ones, I highly recommend this charter!

we had the most amazing time with Capt.Billy and his 1st Mate Terri. They were very knowledgeable and laid back! we caught anout 20-25 fish between the 6 of us fishing. it was my daughters birthday and they were fantastic celebrating her! (definitely bring bug spray the mosquitoes were horrible in some spots especially getting out of the car to the marina. once we were on the water and away from the mangroves it was fine)

Great morning out with the family!
Island fishing/shelling on March 25, 20263 adults2 children

Had a great time with Captain Billy and first mate Justin. Caught some fish (even two sharks!) and had some time to look for shells on a nice quiet island. Our kids (7 and 6) really enjoyed the trip and it was just the right length. Captain has water, poles, and bait. Bring your own snacks and sunscreen. Bug spray might also be good for fishing around the mangroves. Really a great time and would highly recommend!

Great time fishing
2.5 Kids time fishing on March 12, 20261 adult2 children

Captain Billy was excellent. He communicated before the trip and was waiting for us at the marina. The boat was in great shape and he had plenty of equipment for our group. The fish weren’t biting initially, but we eventually got going and caught quite a few fish and wide variety of them. Billy was patient with my kids (8 and 10) and pleasant company with the adults. Would definitely hire him again.

2.5 Hour Kids Time Fishing on April 21, 20262 adults3 children

We had a great family fishing trip in Naples with our three kids. We caught toadfish, mangrove snapper, lane snapper, and whiting, and everyone stayed engaged the whole time. Captain Billy was fantastic—super friendly and especially helpful with the kids, baiting hooks, taking fish off, and teaching us about the area. Highly recommend for a fun, easygoing family outing.
