Make your next trip to Santa Rosa Beach an unforgettable day on the water with Sunny Bay Cruise & Charter.

We specialize in private, all-inclusive fishing charters — your set trip price includes the captain, fuel, fishing licenses, rods, reels, tackle, and bait. No hidden fees. No surprises.

Conveniently departing from Pilcher Park Boat Ramp with direct access to Choctawhatchee Bay and quick runs to the Gulf of Mexico, we offer inshore, nearshore, and offshore fishing adventures up to 25 miles.

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

You’ll fish aboard a 23’ World Cat 230DC — a stable, twin-engine catamaran built for safety, comfort, and performance. The vessel accommodates up to 6 guests and features a private onboard toilet for added convenience.

All fishing licenses are covered. Catch cleaning and filleting are available when regulations allow. A professional First Mate is onboard to assist throughout your trip (customary gratuity 15–20%).

Family-friendly trips are welcome. Children must wear properly fitted life jackets — please confirm sizes in advance.

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

Whether you’re planning a relaxed bay outing or serious Gulf action offshore, Sunny Bay Cruise & Charter delivers a professional, results-driven experience on the water.

Good Boat Terrible Fishing
4 Hour Trip – Choctawhatchee Bay on April 11, 20263 adults3 children
The boat was nice, but i think it mY have been Pat’s first time taking people fishing on it. All we wantednto do was have our kids get a pole and fosh for a few hours. instead Pat just has thr lines being towed from thr boat while we drove around. we just wanted all thr kids to drop a line in thr water and see what they could catch. We did get to see dolphins and thr kids loved that part. I would definitely not recommended this experience for anyone looking to fish.

Hi Lindsey — thank you for the feedback, I appreciate you taking the time to share it. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the boat, but I’m sorry the fishing experience didn’t match what you had in mind — especially for your kids. That’s important to us. It sounds like there may have been a disconnect on the style of fishing for that trip. Trolling (lines behind the boat) is something we do at times depending on conditions, but for family trips — especially with kids — we typically focus on hands-on fishing where everyone can actively drop a line and participate. That’s on us for not making sure expectations were clearly aligned before departure. We’ve already addressed this with our crew to ensure every trip is tailored to the group, particularly when kids are involved. We take a lot of pride in delivering a great experience, and feedback like this helps us tighten things up. If you’re open to it, I’d welcome the opportunity to make it right for your family on a future trip. — Sunny Bay Cruise & Charter
