Whether you're heading offshore to fish, or enjoying a private cruise, each charter is shaped around the conditions, timing, and experience you're looking for.

Completely private, NO shared trips, your booking, your family and friends, your day. Trips customized to suit each bookings requirements.

Tides, weather, and local knowledge guide every decision — so time on the water feels unhurried, well planned, and exactly as it should.

No rushed schedules. No cookie-cutter trips. Just game fishing charters and relaxed Broadwater cruises, thoughtfully matched to the day.

Species like Mahi Mahi, Blue Marlin, Striped Marlin, Black Marlin, Wahoo, Mackerel, Shad, Skipjack Tuna, Sailfish, Yellowfin Tuna, Longtail Tuna, Shortbill Spearfish, and more can be found in these waters, depending on conditions.

Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!

Capt. Michael runs a luxury 36' Riviera that holds up to 8 passengers. The cabin is fully air conditioned for the run in and out to the grounds or for a quick relaxing rest on our hot summer days.It comes with outriggers, a fighting chair, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible.

Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly.

A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, come aboard with Medusa Charters and get hooked!

    Mick and the crew were unreal - so welcoming and knowledgeable. We had a photo shoot for a high profile aussie company, and they were super accommodating, also on top of that got us a monster dolphin fish for content. The vessel was unreal and an absolute weapon. Will be definitely using mick for the next run… book him you won’t be disappointed.
