Ratings & Reviews Summary

I’ve fished with capt Charlie about a handful of times and I will say that fishing with him is the highlight of fall break. It was a tough trip and the conditions weren’t right, but captain Charlie and gill made the trip. He makes you feel like family when you are on the boat with him. I highly recommend captain Charlie to anyone looking to fish down here.

Booked this trip with a friend of mine while we were on spring break with our families. Captain Charlie was fantastic! He took us to several places inland and along the shoreline. He was very knowledgeable and had some great stories to share. I highly recommended this boat and crew!

Captain Charlie had us on fish all day long. Couldn’t have asked for a better fishing adventure with the wife and friends. Don’t hesitate to book with Southern Sun Inshore Charters!

Took my grandsons, 8 and 13, on a 4 hour inshore charter and had a blast. Upon arrival at the marina Capt. Charlie advised the fishing was not very good the day before and asked us if we would like to stay on schedule. We did and we had a great time. He put us on the fish and my grandsons were able to catch some nice ones. Will definitely charter with them again. Great family experience.
