Great day on the water!

3/4 Day Trip – Sailfish & Pelagic4 adults

We did a 3/4 day trip on vacation in Key Largo. Nice boat and great Captain and first mate. The conditions weren’t the best but they did a really good job to still find and put us on the fish. We would definitely use them again the next time we are down here.

    What Else Could You Ask For?

    3/4 Day Trip – Reef/Bottom Fishing • 4 adults

    First time fishing with Coastal Dreams Fishing and will certainly be back to fish with them again. Captain Angel and First Mate Thomas were the best! They made sure we had an exciting time and even took us out a bit further in search of some Mahi. On our trip, we caught many yellowtail snapper, a monster mutton snapper, and a monster red grouper. We couldn't have asked for a better day out on the water and the next time we are in Key Largo, we know who to call when we want to catch some fish.

    One of our favorite trips

    Full Day Trip – Offshore • 6 adults

    my brother and i went on this charter for his bachelor party trip. we are people who fish whenever we go on vacation. i have to say this one was one of our favorite experiences we’ve had. the crew was great and the captain was also great. super friendly fun and lively. kept the energy up and helped us bring home a lot of fish. we will definitely be returning to the keys to fish with coastal dreams again! the boat was also very nice with a lot of space for multiple people.

    Reported Catch

    Not much luck, but a boatload of fun!

    Half Day – Sailfish & Palegic (PM) • 4 adults

    We had a great time on our recent trip with coastal dreams fishing charter. We only caught one fish all day, but a bad day of fishing is still better than a good day at work! The captain and mate were warm, friendly, and fun to spend the day with. We will definitely book with them on our next trip to the keys!

    Reported Catch
    Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)
    Response from Charter operator

    Richard, our crew thank you for the for recognizing their effort and hard work. We’re glad you had a great time out on the water with us. Fishing can be unpredictable some days, but we love hearing that the experience, crew, and memories still made the trip worthwhile. Captain and mate truly enjoy making every charter fun and welcoming, no matter how many fish decide to cooperate! We appreciate the kind words and 5 Star review! We really appreciate you spending the day with Coastal Dreams and look forward to fishing with you again on your next trip to the Keys. Hopefully next time the fish bite a little harder! Be well.
