Located on Florida’s stunning Emerald Coast, Okaloosa Island forms a barrier between Choctawhatchee Bay and the plentiful waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
Newbies and families can cruise the inshore waters of the bay for Speckled Trout, Flounder, Redfish, and other tasty table fare. More experience under your belt? Head south to the nearshore reefs and wrecks of the Gulf for Snapper, Grouper, and Mackerel species among others. The Gulf also offers up some incredible offshore action, with Mahi Mahi, Marlin, and Sailfish lurking in deep waters.
In addition to this, Okaloosa Island is home to the famous Okaloosa Island Pier, and provides plenty of on-land action for visitors who want to combine their angling with some sightseeing. This also means that you’ll find plenty of charters aimed at fishermen of all ages and skill levels. All that’s left is to choose your angling adventure and discover what this island has to offer!
