Lionfish are an invasive fish, originally from the Indo-Pacific, that have been introduced to the Florida Keys and Caribbean islands. These fish have no natural predators, reproduce quickly, and are decimating our native fish populations. The most productive way to eradicate these invasive fish is by spearfishing! We strive to make your snorkeling experience truly unforgettable! From individuals to families and everything in-between, our luxury private snorkeling charters will give you the very best experience you’ll find in the Florida Keys! We specialize in promoting sustainable spearfishing practices. A big part of that is invasive Lionfish Eradication. Over the years, we have removed thousands of Lionfish and introduced hundreds of divers to safe Lionfish hunting techniques. We also work closely with state and federal agencies, as well as non-profits, to support research efforts and to better understand the Lionfish invasion. When it comes to Lionfish, we know where to find them and how to safely remove them. Best of all, they are a delicious delicacy for you to take with you! Let our experienced Lionfish guides take you on a conservation experience you will never forget, all equipment is included! Read More

    What a great time! My son and I enjoyed our trip. Fishing the flats and mangroves was a great new experience it and I can’t wait to do it again. We caught a very large barracuda and found many tarpon. The boat was great for flats fishing. Our captain was good guide and very personable. We do it again for sure. Thank you

    George was great. Incredibly knowledgeable, charming, and patient. He was prepared to fish for all kinds of fish of different size and environs. We hooked a couple sharks, barracudas, yellowtail snappers, and a Goliath grouper. Great fun and we feel like we made a friend.
