Gulf Coast Backcountry Charters offers an unparalleled guide service that delivers an authentic backcountry fishing experience. With a deep passion for the waters of Florida's Nature Coast, we invite you to explore the untouched beauty of old Florida as it was meant to be seen.

Navigate through pristine mangrove mazes where adventure awaits at every turn. The region's crystal-clear waters provide exceptional sight fishing opportunities, offering you the chance to spot and stalk fish in their natural habitat. Whether you're a seasoned angler or a first-time fisher, our expert guides are dedicated to tailoring each trip to match your skill level and personal goals.

Our seasonal Tarpon fishing kicks off in May and runs through late August, giving you the chance to battle one of the most iconic game fish in the world. Whether you prefer the finesse of fly fishing or the versatility of light tackle, Gulf Coast Backcountry Charters ensures a memorable day on the water.

Join us for an adventure where every cast tells a story, and every trip creates memories that last a lifetime.
