Make your next trip to Santa Rosa Beach an adventure on the water with Sunny Bay Cruise & Charter LLC. Based at Pilcher Park Boat Ramp with quick access to Choctawhatchee Bay and the Gulf, we offer inshore, nearshore, and offshore fishing up to 25 miles.

Depending on the season, you’ll target Red Snapper, Gag and Red Grouper, Amberjack, Mangrove and Lane Snapper, Cobia, King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel, Redfish, Flounder, and more.

We use a mix of light and heavy tackle including bottom fishing, trolling, jigging, drifting, and spinning to match the conditions and maximize your success.

You’ll fish aboard a 23’ catamaran built for stability, comfort, and efficiency — ideal for families and serious anglers alike. The boat accommodates up to 6 guests and features a private onboard toilet for convenience.

All rods, reels, tackle, live bait, lures, and your fishing license are included. Catch cleaning and filleting are available when regulations allow. A First Mate is on board to assist throughout the trip (customary gratuity 15–20%).

Family-friendly trips are welcome. Children must wear properly fitted life jackets (please confirm sizes ahead of time).

Bring sunglasses, sun protection (non-spray), and drinks if desired. Alcohol is permitted in moderation (no glass, no hard liquor).

Whether you’re looking for a laid-back family day or serious Gulf action, Sunny Bay Cruise & Charter delivers a professional, local experience on the water.
