About Your Guide

Randy Thornton

Independent Guide
Captain Randy was born and raised in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, and he spent his childhood chasing fishing off the beaches and in the sounds and backwaters with his dad. He knew he wanted to give others the chance to make their own great memories, so he got his Captain's License and began running one of Wanchese, NC's best charters. With more than a decade of guiding experience, including offshore, nearshore, and inshore waters, he's ready to give you and your family the trip of a lifetime.
