Deep Sea/Reef Fishing Options

Towering coral formations wait just offshore of Ocean Reef and are home to a plethora of Snapper and Grouper species. Just beyond the Reef lays the Big Blue. The deep-sea waters provide an arena to do battle with a dancing Sailfish or troll the purple swells in hopes of tangling with a feisty Dolphin Fish (Mahi Mahi), Wahoo and various types of Tuna.

Flats/Shallow Water Sight Fishing Options

Fishing the tip of the fabulous Florida Keys, amongst the waters of the Ocean Reef Club, leads to endless angling possibilities. With fly rod in hand or spin tackle on board, the adventure begins. The placid, turquoise, saltwater shallows team with the elusive Bonefish, Tarpon, Barracuda, Sharks and Permit. The backwater creeks carved from a Mangrove jungle, provide habitat for lunker Snook, Tarpon, Jack Crevalle and more.
