WHY GUESTS CHOOSE OUR BOTTOM FISHING CHARTERS
Experienced Local Bahamian Fishermen: Our captains are lifelong Exuma fishermen with years of experience navigating these waters and locating productive reefs and fishing grounds.
Start in the Heart of the Exuma Cays: You're already where the adventure happens. With no flights or lengthy offshore crossings required, your experience can begin directly from your designated marina or dock.
Private Experience: The boat is reserved exclusively for your group. There are no shared-tour crowds, allowing your captain to tailor the fishing experience to your group.
Great for Everyone: Bottom fishing is one of our most beginner-friendly fishing experiences. No previous fishing experience is required, and your captain can provide as much guidance as you need.
Productive Fishing Grounds: The Exuma Cays are home to extensive reefs and diverse marine life. Your captain uses local knowledge, current conditions, tides, and fish activity to select fishing grounds for your day.
Perfect for Families: Bottom fishing is a great option for families and groups because it doesn't require previous experience or specialized freediving techniques. Guests with different levels of fishing experience can enjoy the day together.
Keep Your Catch: Your legal catch is yours to keep, and cleaning and filleting are included at no additional cost.
More Time Fishing: Starting directly within the Exuma Cays means your time is spent fishing and enjoying the islands rather than traveling long distances just to reach the fishing grounds.
Sustainable Fishing: We follow responsible fishing practices and applicable Bahamian fishing regulations to help protect the marine resources that have supported Exuma communities for generations.
Local Knowledge: This isn't simply a fishing charter. You'll spend the day with someone who grew up fishing and navigating these waters and can share local knowledge developed through years of experience in the Exuma Cays.

Keep Your Catch: Your legal catch is yours to keep, and cleaning and filleting are included at no additional cost.
More Time Fishing: Instead of spending hours traveling across open ocean from Nassau by boat, you fly directly into the heart of the Exuma Cays. This means significantly more of your day can be spent fishing and enjoying the islands.
Incredible Scenic Flights: Your journey begins with breathtaking aerial views of the Exuma chain. For many guests, the flight becomes part of the experience itself.
Higher Reliability: Flying eliminates the lengthy open-ocean crossing between Nassau and the Exuma Cays. Because your fishing experience begins within the Cays, we travel primarily through the waters surrounding the islands rather than spending hours crossing open ocean.
This means conditions that may prevent or make a long offshore crossing uncomfortable do not necessarily prevent us from operating within the Cays, giving our experiences a lower risk of weather-related cancellation while also providing a more comfortable day on the water.
Sustainable Fishing: We follow responsible fishing practices and applicable Bahamian fishing regulations to help protect the marine resources that have supported Exuma communities for generations.
Local Knowledge: This isn't simply a fishing charter. You'll spend the day with someone who grew up fishing and navigating these waters and can share local knowledge developed through years of experience in the Exuma Cays.
