H and H Sportfishing Adventures offers a variety of fishing trips, sunset cruises, dolphin watching, and Crab Island adventures. With over 40 years of fishing experience, as a past tournament angler and TV host, Captain Dave Heath's knowledge of fishing will provide you with an unforgettable fishing experience.

Their 30' Key West Billistic center console can accommodate up to 6 guests and includes all required safety equipment. It is powered by twin 250 HP Yamaha motors and it has a full range of navigational equipment, live bait tank, and an icebox.

Using the latest in fishing techniques and quality fishing gear, you will be targeting Red Snapper, Amberjack, King Mackerel, Barracuda, Grouper, Mahi Mahi, Cobia, Triggerfish, and other reef fish. Your time is important to the crew, so you have the option of booking fishing trips from 4-8 hours.

They also provide beautiful sunset cruises, where you can enjoy a relaxing evening and take in one of Destin's amazing sunsets. If dolphin-watching is what you want, avoid the crowds and enjoy your private dolphin-watching tour.

Trips include all equipment, bait, tackle, license, and of course, cleaning your catch upon return, so all you need to bring is your food and drinks. There will be plenty of photo opportunities so bring a camera, or if you happen to forget, the crew will ensure your trip is captured by one of theirs.

Or what about a fun-filled day on Crab Island? Splash around in the water, have dinner and drinks, or just catch some rays at one of Destin's premier hot spots that are only accessible by boat. Trips can be tailored to your desires and can range from 2-8 hours.

Join H and H Sportfishing Adventures on your next trip to the Destin area, and have a great time on the water!

Great captain, great fishing, great time!
Half Day Trip (AM) – Fishing on August 31, 20265 adults

Dave was a great captain and made sure everyone on the boat had a great time. He’s an experienced captain and fisherman who knows how to put you on the fish! We caught Vermilion Snapper, Red Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Triggerfish, and Grouper. He even took the time to stop so we could watch some dolphins! We had five adults in our group, and everyone caught several fish. It was a great experience from start to finish. Highly recommend Dave and H&H for anyone looking for a great fishing trip!

Awesome Trip!
Half Day Trip (AM) – Fishing on April 1, 20263 adults3 children

We had a great time. Dave was amazing! Took us to several spots that were all succesful. We caught triggerfish, red snapper, vermillion snapper, and spanish mackerel. Then we caught “bait fish” to fish for amberjack. We had three kids and three adults and everyone had a great time. Additionally, we heard many stories about the area, the buildings, and the artificial reefs. Dave has been doing this for 30+ years and it definitely shows. Will definitely call Dave again when we come back next spring break!

Red Snapper
Spanish Mackerel
