Types of Specialty Charters

Fishing Charters

The Crystal River and Homosassa areas of the “Nature Coast” are a true fisherman’s paradise. With over twenty different species of fish inhabiting our local waters annually, it’s no wonder why anglers travel from all over the “World” to try their luck at a fishing experience of a lifetime. All anglers no matter their experience or skill level are welcome and encouraged to share a day out on the water with Reel Florida Fishing Charters.

Scalloping Adventures

The Nature Coast’s Scallop Season has been a fan favorite for decades. This under water Easter egg hunt is a family friendly activity that provides children and adults with hours of exciting fun. For a true Nature Coast experience checkout our VIP scallop trip that includes a day of scalloping and a manatee swim.

Manatee Tours

Crystal River is home to the “WORLDS” largest population of the endangered West Indian Manatee. It’s also the only destination in the United States that permits swimming with these gentle giants. Consider exploring the pristine waters of Florida’s Nature Coast with a Manatee snorkel tour.
