About Your Trip

Embark from Atlantic Beach, North Carolina, and join us for an unforgettable day on the water. We’ll head out on our comfortable center-console and explore the rich inshore and near-shore waters of the Crystal Coast. Depending on your choice of trip — whether a 4-hour half-day or a full 8-hour adventure — we’ll fish scenic creeks, flats, reefs, and wrecks. A half-day trip keeps us close to the barrier islands, while a full-day charter gives us the range to go deeper and cover more water in search of the best bite.

Our boat is fully equipped with modern electronics, including GPS, fish-finder, and a live-bait well. All rods, reels, bait, and tackle are provided, and we’ll clean and bag your catch so it’s ready to take home. You won’t need to worry about a fishing license either — it’s covered when you fish with us.

Beyond the fishing, you’ll experience the beauty of the Crystal Coast up close: open waters, marshy backdrops, and maybe even a few dolphins cruising by. Whether you’re bringing the family, fishing with friends, or chasing a personal best, we make sure every trip is laid-back, enjoyable, and tailored to your experience level. You can customize your day — from targeting specific species to adjusting techniques or locations — to make it exactly the trip you’re looking for.

We use a variety of techniques including bottom fishing, trolling, and light tackle casting. Depending on the season, target species may include red drum, speckled trout, flounder, Spanish mackerel, bluefish, and black drum. Every outing is a chance to make great memories, enjoy the coast, and reel in something special.

Join us for a true Crystal Coast experience — professional, flexible, and focused on giving you the best day possible on the water.

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to thousands of quality, vetted fishing, hunting, and other outdoor sports guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.
We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.
Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!
In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.
Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.
After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
