It’s summer fun fishing time! The time of the year for catching what’s plentiful – sharks, that is!
Truly an experience that your kids will tell all their friends about as soon as they get back home! Well, that’s how it would have worked back in our childhood days, but now the kids’ friends will be looking at photos before you’re even off the boat! Treat your family to this exciting adventure!
When you visit Hilton Head Island, SC contact Dolphin Discoveries Nature Tours & Family Shark Fishing. Whether the kids are 5 or 8 and reeling in 1-2 footers, or your harder-to-please teenagers are on board and we go to the holes where the 3,4 and even 5 footers hang out either way, the kids will be full of smiles!
Our 22’ Carolina Skiff is made for recreational boating and fishing. It’s a great boat to catch some Sharks, stop to see a few dolphins, and enjoy all the beautiful scenery Hilton Head has to offer! This charter can accommodate a group max of 6 guests(Generally, we fish 4 rods max at a time), although fewer people(or with children) gives more room to move about.
Whether a Hammerhead, Bull Shark, Blacktip, or maybe a huge Ray putting up the fight of a lifetime, it’s Hilton Head fun at its best! Our Captains have kids themselves that love to go fishing with their dads on their days off so you won’t be dealing with the old salty fishing guy that does most of the fishing for you. These guys love seeing the excitement on your kids’ faces just like they see on their own kids!
Teens and children are more than welcome and the crew is very enthusiastic to teach them to fish. For Dolphin Discoveries and Family Shark Fishing, it’s all about summer fun and the kids! Of course, an enthusiastic adult group we love to have as well! All fishing gear, bait, and licensing are included.
The price shown is cash price and an additional 6%(9% total) will be added for CC.

3 Hour Trip – Shark (11:30AM)
Captain Heath and Dolphin Discoveries Family Fishing was everything we expected and more. On a 3-hour trip we had consistent action landing sharks, a couple Rays, and a Skate. We were able to watch dolphins from the time we got on the boat until we were finished so that was a plus. Captain Heath is very knowledgeable about the area and worked hard to put us on fish based on the tide. I would recommend for any level of fisherman to take this trip as it is a low pressure, enjoyable trip. My wife has fished with me in Alaska and Costa Rica and she told Captain Heath this was the best Guided trip she has ever been on.

4 Hour Trip –Shark & Dolphin (2:30)
My family and I loved the shark fishing adventure, we caught 10 sharks total! And then spent the last part of the trip surrounded by dolphins! Captain Larry had us on the fish in no time and was great to hang out with, very knowledgeable and a good time! We can’t wait to go fishing for more sharks again!

Captain Craig did a great job. He got us to the spot to help us catch several sharks from 1-3 ft long. Enjoyed the fishing!

Ian was great, we caught some really cool sharks. Great time for all on the boat even if you're not fishing and just watching.
