Six Ways to Fish the Gulf of Mexico

From affordable party boat trips to the ultimate challenge of deep-dropping for Swordfish, Pelican Adventures has the right charter for every angler. All trips depart from 580 Harbor Blvd, Destin Harbor.

🎣

Bottom / Deep Sea Fishing

Destin’s most popular style. Your captain takes you to productive Gulf structure where Snappers, Triggerfish, Grouper, and Amberjack live. Multiple bottom stops per trip for maximum action.

🚢

Party Boat Fishing

Join up to 65 fellow anglers aboard the 70-ft Vera Marie for the most affordable way to fish offshore. Daily departures, all gear included. The classic Destin headboat experience.

From $89/person
👥

Shared Charter Fishing

More intimate than a headboat with 8–25 passengers. Bottom fish for Snappers, Porgies, Mingo, and Sea Bass at an affordable per-person rate. Perfect for small groups.

From $149/person
⚔️

Swordfishing

The ultimate offshore challenge aboard the “Deep Obsession.” Target Swordfish in 1,200–2,000 feet of water. Takes patience, but landing one creates memories of a lifetime.

Shark Fishing

Destin is famous for big Bull Sharks. We anchor and chum for Bull, Blacktip, Sandbar, and Mako sharks. An adrenaline rush unlike anything else on the water.

Trolling & Sight Fishing

Trolling targets Mahi Mahi, Spanish & King Mackerel, and Wahoo. Sight fishing in spring targets Cobia, Redfish, and Triple Tail along the shoreline — a lot like hunting on the water.
