If you're looking for some great ocean fishing while on vacation you won't be disappointed by the number of first class Key West fishing guides and charter boats available. The famous author and fishing enthusiast Ernest Hemingway himself helped put Key West deep sea fishing on the map.
You'll have a chance to experience some of the best offshore fishing to be found anywhere in the gulf. There is no other spot on the planet with more world record fish caught than the Florida Keys. You'll find a wide selection of offshore deep sea fishing charters available to choose from.
Most charter boats will offer rates for either a half day (4 hr.) or full day (8 hr.) of fishing. A few will even offer a split 6 hour trip. The average fishing charter boat will accommodate up to six fishermen.
For those of you that thought a fishing charter is way too expensive to fit your budget we've found the perfect answer for you. Gulfstream Fishing offers, hands down no questions asked, the best Key West party boat fishing bargain to be found in Key West.
The Gulfstream IV
Gulfstream offers a six hour fishing charter for as little as $58.50 ea.if you book on-line with them. Most of the party boats only offer a 4 hour trip. Kids 12 and under also receive a discount at $36 (booked on-line) or even free if they are five and under.
Even though you will be sharing the boat with others, the experienced crew is known for providing each of the passengers the type of service found on the much more expensive charters.
Their boat the roomy 58" Gulfstream IV, is equipped with a comfortable galley area and features a full service food menu and beverage menu. The Gulfstream IV departs the dock each day at 10:00 am and returns to port at 4:00 pm. We highly recommend them for a fun day of fishing at a basement bargain price.
They are located at the Historic Charter Boat Row.
