The
waters off the Crystal Coast attract a special breed of angler. This area is known to
be the birthplace of many legendary fish tales! Fighting the big one for hours of reel
spooling fun is great for creating memories to last a lifetime! We have several great
fishing charters that cater to your requests. In the summer months enjoy line screaming
action reeling in dolphin, wahoo, tuna, blue and white marlin, kings, grouper, snapper
and so many others. Whether you enjoy deep sea fishing for the big game offshore, inshore
fishing on the sound or casting your line in the surf, we can guarantee that you will
enjoy the fabulous fishing grounds surrounding our island. Inshore and offshore fly
fishing charters are also available. Call our Tour Desk today for more information and
to arrange a charter today!

Just Cruise |

So maybe fishing isn’t
your thing, you can still enjoy a day cruising our sparkling waters and basking in the
sun onboard a variety of vessels that provide an amazing day on the water. Daily excursions
include a morning Dolphin Watch Cruise and an evening Sunset Cruise with beer and wine
included.
We highly recommend the half day excursion to the Cape Lookout National Seashore. Spend
hours exploring this pristine barrier island, collecting seashells, snorkeling the clear
waters, surfing, fishing, hiking and bird watching. A catered lunch is provided on most
charters, as well as fresh water showers. It’s a day of great fun and adventure
not to be missed!

Diver Down |

We are so fortunate
to be surrounded by such rich waters. This area is one of the best locations for Scuba
Diving on the East Coast. The warm Gulf Stream waters graze the coast bringing an
abundance of tropical fish and invertebrates with them as well as water temperatures
in the 80°s and over 100’ of visibility in most areas. This combined with
the numerous reefs and hundreds of wrecks littering the seafloor make for an unbelievable
diving experience! Bring your underwater camera to capture the abundant sea life surrounding
the Graveyard of the Atlantic.
We have several first class dive centers in the area that offer certification courses,
well stocked dive shops, service centers and fully equipped diving vessels. Quality
air and Nitrox refills are available to extend your bottom time. The Tour Desk can
book charters for a variety of dive spots depending on your preferences and skill
levels.
