Tarpon Fishing in Key West

The southernmost point of the continental US, 47 miles away. Deep sea fishing, reef fishing, and historic harbor waters teeming with gamefish.

Key West represents the southern terminus of the Florida Keys and offers access to some of the deepest and most productive waters in the region. The proximity to the Gulf Stream brings pelagic species close to shore, while the extensive reef system and wrecks hold massive resident fish.

Offshore trips from Key West target sailfish, marlin, wahoo, tuna, and mahi-mahi. The reef fishing produces trophy grouper, snapper, and amberjack. The backcountry areas feature excellent tarpon fishing, especially during the spring migration. Key West's position at the edge of the continental shelf provides access to deep-water species not commonly found further north in the Keys.
