Nearshore fishing charter in Charleston

Nearshore Fishing Charters in Charleston

Step offshore for bigger bites — private nearshore trips departing from Folly Beach.

Nearshore fishing is the perfect upgrade when your crew wants more action and the chance at larger species. We fish reefs, wrecks, and productive coastal structure just off the Charleston coastline — and if a spot isn’t producing, we move. You’ll get a hands-on, guided experience that’s fun for all skill levels.

Why Choose a Nearshore Charter

  • More variety + bigger “wow” potential than inshore
  • Private boat — your crew only (4 people max)
  • We relocate fast if fish aren’t active
  • Scenic coastal water + true Charleston fishing experience

  • Trip lengths: 6 or 8 hours
  • Capacity: up to 4 guests

What Guests Are Saying

“Where do I start… we had such an amazing trip with Capt. Will. It was honestly one of the best trips I have been on, he put us straight on the fish and if he saw there wasn’t any action he took us to another spot! It was such an enjoyable day l, way to short to be honest I could have easily fished for 8-9 hours 🤣. Seriously don’t look any further ! Go fish with these guys 🙏 YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!”
