Pelican Adventures offers fantastic trips targeting a range of offshore species. Fishing out of Destin, Florida, a town famous for its fishing, they are within easy reach of the bountiful blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Fishing with Pelican Adventures groups of all sizes can find a trip to suit them. From a morning or afternoon out with family or friends catching a Variety of Snapper, King Mackerel, and Trigger, to a 12-hour offshore extravaganza targeting Amberjack and Grouper (and many other amazing species), these guys will have the trip for you. They also provide equipment for a range of fishing techniques including bottom fishing, trolling, jigging, and spinning, and their highly-skilled first mate will work tirelessly to keep the rods bending, no matter how they’re set up.

All Pelican Adventures fishing trips come with fishing licenses for all on board.

We had a wonderful time on our fishing expedition with captain David and first mate Kai. Captain David kept the boat moving to the best spots for great fish catching. First mate Kai kept us with bated lures. We also got the chance to catch and release a beautiful 400lb. Shark which was a battle and the highlight. We loved the trip and will have memories to share.
