Half-Day Deep-Sea Fishing at Riviera Beach

1.Half-Day Deep-Sea Fishing at Riviera Beach

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 366 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $80Our pick

Board Blue Heron Fishing at Riviera Beach for about four hours of Atlantic fishing. You get a rod, reel, bait, tackle, and fishing license, while the crew helps with knots, bait, and technique. Fish near the waters off John D. MacArthur Beach State Park, then return to the dock with your catch cleaned and filleted.

“Love this group since it’s actual real fishing - not like some ‘touristy’ charters where you don’t get to touch the pole. I live when people leave poor reviews because they didn’t catch anything 😂. Obviously they don’t understand fishing; sometimes I’m good and sometimes I’m not . . . no one can make the fish come across your bait and they choose to bite or not.”

“I like all the Miami tours except this one. The day we set sailed had a terrible sea condition but we were informed it should be only 2-3 feet tall waves and still departed. I know canceling a scheduled trip may disappoint many people but would be a better option not to get us such a bad experience. I am not a easily seasick person and never puke before but this time most of the passengers got really sick. Captain changed 4 fishing spots and no one get even a bite. When we found no fish in the 1st spot I was already thinking when can we return. I would…”

“The people were amazing and we were able to catch a lot of fish which was really fun. I gave it a 3/5 because the boat was severely outdated and looked nothing like the picture. We also had 11 people and there were no seats for people to sit on other than the torn up leather coach on the inside of the boat. This made it for a really long trip standing on a boat in the ocean especially with 70 year old parents. We ended up only staying out about 3 of the 4 hours because the standing was a lot.”
