Big shout out to ride out charters for an epic day on the water. We booked a four hour trip and ended up paying extra to stay out longer because we were having such a great time. My son had been looking forward to fishing in Key West all year and Captain Nick definitely made it happen. He got my son hooked up to tuna and several mutton.. we will definitely be back for another father-son trip next year and when we do, we will be booking with Captain Nick no doubt.

Captain Nick will put you on the fish! He is personable and knowledgeable, and knows the waters of Key West very well. The conditions were rough, but we had a great time and ended up catching a Wahoo and a Cobia.

My wife got sea sick, but we still had a great time. Captain Nick was very accommodating. After we fished, Nick took us to the sandbar. It was more protected and we were able to kick back and relax.  I probably won’t bring my wife out again fishing, but I will definitely bring my buddies back to fish with Nick. Thanks for the great experience.

We had to change our reservation three times due to our kids being sick. Nick never gave us a hard time and was overly accommodating toward us given the circumstances.  The boat was comfortable and great for 4 people. All of us got to catch fish. This was definitely the highlight of our trip!

We had a wonderful day with Captain Nick. We ended up booking a 6 hour snorkel and sandbar trip and we were so glad we did! This day was probably the highlight of our trip. Weather was perfect and the environment was exactly what we were looking for. Laid back and lots of laughs. We definitely would recommend booking a trip with Ride Out Charters if you're looking for a fun day at the sandbar with friends and family!
