You won’t lose your deposit if the trip is canceled due to weather.

Nearshore trips venture outside the lagoon and river to port Canaveral. Here we can target a wide mix of hard-fighting coastal species. Depending on the season, anglers may encounter bigger snook, tarpon, jack crevalle, Cobia, Tripletail, snapper, Spanish mackerel, and other beachside predators. Expect hard fighting fish with plenty of drag-screaming runs. It’s the perfect option for anglers looking to add variety and a little extra power to their day on the water.

In high school, Alex’s family relocated to Central Florida, where he quickly fell in love with Florida fishing using light tackle and fly gear.

What makes you different from other guides?
I am extremely passionate about being on the water and enjoy it thoroughly. I understand others may not always have the exact same passion but want to catch fish. I work hard to translate my knowledge and skills into a comfortable, fun and productive day on the water for my guests!

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.
