Half day trip with Doc & Georgie of Kekoa Charters

Half Day Trip - Reef & Wreck (PM)6 adults

We had THE BEST time with Captain Doc and First Mate Georgie! They made sure that we caught plenty of fish for dinner - lots of snappers and yellow tails! Super nice guys, extremely knowledgeable, and accommodating. When two people in our party got seasick they took us back to shore with no hesitation, and went out of their way to let them know it happens to even experienced boaters. I would recommend them to anyone with any level of experience! We will definitely use them again when we come back!

    Experience of a lifetime!

    1/4 Day Reef Trip6 adults2 children

    Doc and George are incredibly caring, welcoming, and knowledgeable. We had two young kids and two seniors in our group, and they ensured that we were having a fun and comfortable time throughout the trip. They taught us about various types of fish we had never seen before, and explained which ones we could keep and which ones needed to be released. My son enjoyed the experience so much that we requested an extension to the trip, and Doc and George kindly accommodated our request. The kids are already asking when we can come back, and we certainly will. Heartfelt gratitude to Doc and George for providing us with an unforgettable experience!

    An awesome fishing trip

    Half Day Trip - Reef & Wreck (PM)2 adults

    Caught about 30 fish in 4 hours, including 6 different species (yellow tail, grouper, two types of mackeral, barracuda, shark). Captain George and assisted by his son Georgie, are the best fishing guides we’ve had in the Keys.

    1/4 Trip Captain Doc

    1/4 Day Reef Trip (PM)3 adults

    This was our first charter. We are so glad that we did it. Doc told us we were lucky Red Grouper season had just open. We took a short ride to a spot that was about twenty feet deep you could see the bottom. It was beautiful. Even though Doc had been with people for two prior trips so over ten hours. He still was very patient with us. He was kind, polite and funny. We had a great time catching Grouper. I would highly recommend going on a charter with him. Thanks again Captain Doc for the fun and memories. We see you again!

    Lots of Action

    Half Day Trip - Reef & Wreck (AM)2 adults

    We were on fish within 45 minutes of leaving the dock. Caught many yellowfin, and son hooked into a monster grouper. Crew knew how to fish and change strategies to catch whatever was there. Family had a great time.

    1/4 day (2 hours) Family Trip!

    1/4 Day Reef Trip - 12:00 PM5 adults3 children

    What a great experience!!! My kids are 2,5, and 7 and my older kids had been asking to go fishing on a boat and to catch something we could eat. I was excited to find a 2 hour option, as I didn’t think our young kids would stay interested for much longer than that, but still was a little nervous about how this would go down - haha. Doc and George were AMAZING! They were beyond patient with my kids, taught the older boys the proper way to fish, and let my 2 year old reel in fish that they hooked! My husband and I even got to find a little bit because the kids were so engaged! Afterwards, Doc cleaned the fish and butchered the fish we caught and let my kids feed the tarpon by the dock with the remains. It was such a fun trip for all. My 2 year old keeps asking for “more fish,” and the older two asked if we can go back tomorrow! They can be a tough crowd but it was a blast!
