SharkCrossing Charters 

Captain Yussef and the crew were thorough, walked us through everything they were doing, and answered every question we had—and then some. There was even an emergency on the beach during our trip, and the captain handled the situation professionally before getting us right back to fishing. We didn’t end up landing a shark, but it definitely wasn’t for a lack of effort. The captain and crew worked hard the entire trip to put us on fish. Even if you come up short, it’s absolutely worth the time and money for the experience alone. I’ll definitely be booking another trip, and I highly recommend giving them a try too.

If you’re looking for a bucket-list experience, Shark Crossing Charters is the one to book! Our shore shark fishing trip was the highlight of our vacation. We landed an incredible 7-foot, 200+ lb nurse shark, and the adrenaline of fighting a fish that size from the beach is something I’ll never forget. The crew goes above and beyond to put you on sharks. They use drone casting, plus a kayak and dinghy, to place the bait exactly where it needs to be, giving you the best chance to hook into a giant. Watching the whole process is just as impressive as the fight itself. The guides were knowledgeable, professional, and made the entire experience safe, exciting, and fun from start to finish. You can tell they genuinely care about their clients and the sharks they target. If you’re visiting the St. Pete area and want an unforgettable adventure, I can’t recommend Shark Crossing Charters enough. Catching a 7-foot, 200+ lb shark from the beach is a memory that will last a lifetime. We’ll definitely be back! 🦈🎣🌊

I had an absolutely incredible experience shark fishing from the beach with Yuseff of Shark Crossing Charters. From start to finish, his professionalism, knowledge, and passion for what he does were obvious. He took the time to explain everything, made sure we were set up for success, and shared a ton of valuable information throughout the trip. The highlight of the day was landing an absolutely massive lemon shark—an experience I’ll never forget. It was clear that Yuseff’s skill, patience, and years of experience played a huge role in making it happen. Beyond being an outstanding guide, Yuseff is genuinely one of the easiest people to get along with. He keeps the atmosphere fun and relaxed while staying focused on safety and giving you the best chance at an unforgettable catch. Whether you’re a first-timer or an experienced angler, you’ll feel comfortable and confident with him leading the way. If you’re looking for an unforgettable shark fishing adventure, I can’t recommend Yuseff and Shark Crossing Charters highly enough. I’ll definitely be booking another trip with him!

Youseff and crew were super friendly and knowledgeable. They allowed us to stay past our booked time and worked hard at getting us an oppertunity to land a fish. It was fun for the whole family. We would recommend them for your shark beach fishing trip.

It was supposed to be from 7-11. Thought it was on a boat, no we stood on a beach, he put out poles in the sand. We had to wait for the public to leave the beach which was after 9. No one even touched a pole. Nothing like I expected and not even a bite.
