Captain Alex is a native of Key Largo with more than two decades of firsthand experience navigating the waters of the Florida Keys and Everglades National Park. His deep knowledge ensures that you'll be taken to the prime fishing locations and equipped with the right gear for the current bite. Operating from a Lake and Bay flats boat that accommodates 2 to 4 guests, Captain Alex’s charters focus on maximizing your fishing time rather than spending it getting there.
My wife and I had a fantastic outing with Captain Alex. Seeking a half-day fishing adventure, we booked with him despite not having any personal recommendations, and it turned out to be a lucky choice. He consistently kept the bait and rigs working while skillfully guiding us to the fish. Combined with his friendly demeanor and engaging conversation, we truly enjoyed our day on the water. We look forward to booking another trip with him the next time we’re in Key Largo.
