Join NSB Shark Hunters for a once-in-a-lifetime fishing adventure! Your guide will help you catch some real monsters from Melbourne Beach!

Get an adrenaline rush at night with excitement, you can meet your guide on the beach and take your chances with these sea legends. You will go out depending on the tide, but we can be pretty flexible.

If you want to have a relaxed, enjoyable experience, join them in the evening, and watch the moon rise on the horizon with a rod in your hands.

You don't have anything to worry about in advance, except for getting a valid Florida fishing license and bringing it with you, as well as the Shark fishing permit course, which is available for free from the FWC. All the equipment will be provided, including Rods, rigs, and bait.

Target different species of sharks, like Bull, Hammerhead, Blacktip, Thresher, and Tiger Shark. It's a very exciting challenge that you surely won't forget!

Feel free to bring your family along with you since you only pay if you're fishing, and spectating is free. Kids older than 13 will get the chance to try their luck in these waters, but anglers under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Since you'll be shore fishing, there's no need for life vests. Your excursion will be catch, tag, and release. Your guide will provide chairs and water, but you should bring some snacks to stay refreshed throughout the experience.

If you're up for the challenge, book NSB Shark Hunters for an unforgettable night on these shark-rich waters!

Hard Working Outfitter
4 Hour Shark Hunt deep drop! on August 16, 2026 • 4 adults

Thus crew worked hard to get us a shark for the kids to reel in. It started out with a tough bite then picked up. Since they knew the bite started the crew stayed late to get us a shark. We got a 5 foot black tip but also watched another crew reel in an 11 foot tiger shark. Super cool to see all these sharks including catching one ourselves. While waiting they made it fun buy catching crabs by hand. We also saw some newborn sea turtles hatching and making their way to the sea! Great crew!

Reported catch:
Blacktip Shark
Lemon Shark

What a great experience for first time shark fisherman
4 Hour Shark Hunt deep drop! on April 29, 2026 • 3 adults

Had a great time out with NSB Shark Hunters recently. We booked a charter with Caleb in Melbourne, and honestly, as a beginner, it was one of the best fishing experiences I’ve had. Caleb really knows his stuff and has a great attitude he was super patient with us while we were learning. His helper Jackie was awesome too; she kept us entertained and was happy to answer all the questions my family and I had throughout the trip. It was just a solid, fun day on the water. I’ll definitely be booking with Caleb again when I get the chance and will be heading back to NSB Shark Hunters for sure.

    We got to work with Tyler and he was amazing, my son had a great time. We had a few bites but we weren’t able to hook anything. Great time & conversations it was just one of those days where we didn’t get any true bites

    My little sister and I booked this experience, hoping to have a unique bonding experience and adventure together. Tyler and Owen not only helped facilitate this, but they went above and beyond in every way. We shared stories all day, laughed, relaxed, got to know each other, played games on the sand... and after no bites from 12 - 6, they offered to stay later. We got a bite and caught a 6ft tiger shark around 9pm (something tells me they would've stayed even later if we didn't get a bite by then). The catch experience was wild and a completely new experience for both of us. They guys never made us feel dumb (as non fishers) and were great at teaching us the ins and outs of shark fishing. We'll come back again and again without a doubt. Thank you, Tyler and Owen. 100 Stars.
