The murky waters are full of King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel, Barracuda, Amberjack, Cobia, Sharks, Sea Bass & more, and your captain will ensure that you don't return to the docks empty handed. Take a break to enjoy a gourmet lunch or unwind over a cocktail on one of Charleston's many secluded islands while your fish are cleaned and prepared for you to enjoy.
