Ahoy Boat Tours runs angling trips out of Gulf Breeze and offers to show you what the local fishery is all about. Captain Bob will show you around and share his tips and tricks with you. He’s great with kids, so don’t forget to take the little ones on this fishing journey, too!

He specializes in light tackle while fishing for Redfish, King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel, Flounder, Snapper, or Shark. You’re welcome to keep all legal species caught during the trip.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 19’ Pathfinder boat that can safely take up to 3 anglers. This boat features an ice box and wireless trolling motor that will help you seal the deal. All rods, reels, and tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters – fishing.

You’ll find free drinks on the boat for your convenience, but you’re always welcome to pack your own drinks and snacks should you want to. Captain will also take care of your fishing license, so you don’t have to worry about that either.

Book your trip now and hit the water with Ahoy Boat Tours.
