Experience Premier Shark Fishing with Drop Zone Shark Fishing!

Founded in 2021 by Captain Zach, Drop Zone Shark Fishing offers the ultimate shark fishing adventure right from the beach. Operating in Destin, Navarre, Santa Rosa Beach, and Panama City, we bring the action to wherever you are staying. We also provide custom trips along Florida's coast and the Eastern United States.

Our team uses specialized, custom-built reels, rigs, and gear, along with drones and professional kayakers, to deploy bait up to 800 yards offshore. Unlike traditional boat fishing, we fish from the beach—even in up to 50 mph winds and 7-foot waves—so trips rarely get canceled. This method allows for safe, ethical shark releases and incredible family photos.

We specialize in targeting bull, tiger, and great hammerhead sharks in warmer months, and Dusky and other pelagic species in cooler months. Our team has decades of combined experience studying shark migrations, making us the most knowledgeable shark fishing crew in the Gulf. Notably, we are the only group to have caught two 1,000+ pound great white sharks from the beach in Florida on the same day.

Whether you're a seasoned angler or a first-time shark hunter, we'll guide you through this modern style of fishing, giving you an unforgettable experience. Sharks are highly migratory, so reach out to learn what's biting—come shark fishing with the pros!

Epic Shark Fishing Trip – Two Sharks in the First Hour!
6 Hour Trip — Family Beach Shark on March 14, 20264 adults

This trip was absolutely incredible. Within the first hour of our six-hour charter we landed two sharks — one around 8 feet and another about 6 feet. From that moment on it was nonstop excitement and fun. Captain Zack and his crew were awesome. Super knowledgeable, very hands-on, and just genuinely fun people to spend the day with. They made sure everyone had a great time and kept the energy high the entire trip. The gear, setup, and overall experience were top notch. If you’re looking to catch real sharks and have an unforgettable time on the water in Destin, this is the trip to book. We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend.

Response from Captain

We had a good time with you guys. Look forward to catching some bigger sharks next trip.

BEST EXPERIENCE EVER
6 Hour Trip — Monster Beach Shark on May 21, 20262 adults

I found Drop Zone Shark Fishing over a month ago and had to plan a trip while my wife and I were on our baby moon in Destin, FL. This trip absolutely did not dissapoint. As experienced anglers, this is unlike anything we have ever done. Zach, Cole, JJ and my wife and I went 4 for 4 catching 3 great sized bull sharks and a potential WORLD RECORD LEMON SHARK weighing in between 400-500lbs! This trip was such a blast im getting a drop zone tattoo! We decided this is going to be a once a year trip and we cant wait to come back. THIS IS DZSF MF!!!!!!!

Shark Fishing
4 Hour Trip — Family Shark Fishing on August 9, 20257 adults6 children

Over all our experience was great, I wish we had got a shark to shore, but fishing is not cast and always catching. I will say the ad on here is a little misleading. It says they provide drinks, which I wish I would have known since we had several thirsty kiddos. Heads up Destin has no bathrooms so make sure you use it before hand. Parking is rough, around 7 it is super busy. But our Guide Ricardo was amazing he didn’t mind answering all the questions we had, even the kiddos who asked 3 times. He definitely tried his hardest to get us a shark, we actually decided to stay an extra 2 hours (6 total) and paid just to see if we could land a shark. We will be booking him for our trip next year! Extremely impressed with his patients and dedication to shark fishing.
