Incredible views, massive fish, and a professional and friendly captain may sound like a dream… but it’s real with Fantasea Charters!
Captain Keith invites you to join him on board his 32’ Uniflite, an offshore sportfishing vessel equipped with twin Volvo Diesel D4 270 HP engines. She has a spacious deck and cabin with comfortable inside seating for up to 6. There’s a totally enclosed full head (marine toilet),with hot and cold water. While fishing anglers will appreciate the covered deck, Ample rod holders and fish box to carry the catch. All bait and tackle is provided (Okuma rods or shake spear rods. Penn and Fin- Or reels.) 
!!!!! The limit and availability of fish species will depend on state and federal regulations, where the fish are, and weather on day of the trip and how much time is left in the day.  The fish you’ll be going after are all-stars of the area. Huge Halibut lurk offshore, you can keep 2 of them, per person. Pink and Coho Salmon can be found in the bay as well as further offshore – get ready to battle these famous fish.
Your trip begins at 0630 should arrive 10 minutes prior you’ll set off for a 1 to 3-hour ride to the fishing grounds, during which you can enjoy the comforts of the boat and take in the view. A valid fishing license is required before departure, the captain recommends you buy it before your fishing date – just in case life throws you a curve ball, so you can still go fishing.

There’s no minimum age for kids on board and the captain will provide life jackets in all sizes.
Customers are recommended to bring some bottled water, adequate clothing, and a waterproof camera to take pictures of your trophy catch. pictures will be taken back at the dock.

Full Day Trip - Combo on June 26, 20252 adults1 child
Captain Keith helped us to have a spectacular day on the sea. His experience was shared with us as we learned how to fish for the big ones. He chatted up our son and they shared their knowledge of the fish with each other. Captain Keith was patient and helped us to reel in some fun catches. We’ve been on guided trips in Canada and the Bahamas. My husband and son rated this one the best! We hope to make it back to Seward again and we will definitely be back for more fishing with Captain Keith!

Halibut/Rockfish fishing trip
Full Day Trip - Combo on June 22, 20254 adults
This was our first time out in the ocean fishing like this as a tour. Not knowing what to expect but to have a lot more excitement and motivation from our captain but unfortunately not really receiving it from this trip. When we first got on the boat the captain was super welcoming and wanted to know more about us and we also wanted to know more about him but after that it was more of it seems he got tired of us or maybe he was just tired at the end of the day and it seems like he was rushing us. The trip didn’t feel like 9hrs and we probably got back an hour and 1/2 early.

Sorry to hear that you felt that way and I wish you would have said something on the boat. I checked my log and the day was actually about 9:45 so a little longer than planned. Any way thanks for the review

Amazing fishing experience in Seward, Alaska
Full Day Trip - Combo on July 14, 20252 adults
My father and I went fishing on a Halibut fishing in the morning and Salmon fishing in the afternoon with Captain Keith. We had great fun and my father reached his daily limit whilst I caught my first salmon. Our fish was processed afterwards and we had fish for the entirety of our trip. I can only recommend going fishing with Fantasea Charters. Amazing trip.

Full Day Trip - Salmon on August 2, 20253 adults
There was only 4 of us and we had fun. The two women were very comfortable with the boat and the Captain. Was our trip perfect , of course not but everyone has a good time and maybe the Captain did too. This was supposed to be a 9 hour trip and we were very close to that mark. We had about 1 hour cruise to and from the fishing spot. So about 7 hours of wet lines. We had 15 salmon between us including one pink and one king.

Successful Halibut Fishing Trip
9 Hour Trip – Halibut on June 13, 20252 adults
We had a great day catching halibut with Captain Keith Washburn of Fantasea Fishing Charter at Seward, Alaska. Captain Keith was very cordial and thorough explaining the rules of his boat and how to fish for halibut. One member of our group landed a 74 lb halibut! The rest of us had the thrill of landing our limit. We will definitely book a future fishing trip with Captain Keith.
