Explore the Real Key West with a Private 4-Hour Fishing Charter

Step aboard 3rd Degree Charters Key West and experience the island through the eyes of Captain Paulie Marchan, a fifth-generation Conch whose lifelong connection to the sea shapes every adventure.

Operating daily from Hurricane Hole Marina or Sigsbee Marina, each charter is designed for up to 4 anglers or 6 total guests and is perfect for families, couples, and small groups seeking an authentic local experience. For $900 per charter, guests enjoy a half-day escape that captures the heart of the Keys—where the backcountry shallows meet nearshore wrecks teeming with snapper, grouper, and tarpon.

Aboard the 28′ SeaVee Center Console, guests enjoy a smooth, comfortable ride equipped with twin Mercury engines, SeaDek flooring, and a Bluetooth sound system that sets the tone for the day. All fishing licenses, rods, reels, tackle, bait, and ice are provided, ensuring a seamless experience from cast to catch.

Whether the goal is to fish, explore, or simply relax under the sun, every detail is managed by Captain Paulie. His deep knowledge of local tides and seasonal fish behavior guarantees a productive and memorable trip, whether you’re a first-time angler or an experienced fisherman.

Guests are encouraged to bring snacks, beverages, sunscreen, hats, sunglasses, and towels to stay comfortable throughout the trip. Optional snorkeling gear adds another layer of adventure for those wishing to dip into Key West’s crystal waters.

In the rare event of bad weather, the Weather Guarantee ensures a full refund or reschedule, with cancellations accepted up to 72 hours in advance for a full refund.

Every 3rd Degree Charter is a chance to capture the true rhythm of Key West life—from sunrise reflections on the water to the thrill of reeling in a trophy catch.
