About
Our friendly experienced crew will help you catch fish and have fun on a fully equipped air conditioned 43 foot Viking Sport Fishing Boat with a full Tower. We accommodate up to 6 anglers with plenty of seating. We are committed to making your Sport Fishing trip as productive as possible. We search area reefs and the Gulf Stream for the best fishing opportunities available each day. Sailfish, Mahi, Tuna, Wahoo, Snapper, Amberjack, Marlin, Sharks, Cobia, and other Sport Fish are real possibilities and can be caught on the Sea Horse. We are Sport fishing and it is possible you may catch only a few fish due to adverse weather. We are located in Whale Harbor Marina Islamorada Florida Keys, mile marker 83.5 next to the Sea Food Buffet. Whale Harbor is a fishing destination known as the Sport Fishing Capitol of the World. We welcome novice, and experienced anglers to have fun fishing on the Sea Horse. We encourage you to ask us questions about Sport fishing .

Captain Rick and first mate, John, were amazing! They were both extremely attentive and helpful and went above and beyond to ensure we all had success and a great time. They were knowledgeable, friendly and super nice and cute with my young son who was suffering a bit of seasickness. Even he said he would go again and again. I would recommend 10 out of 10!

Our family of 5 did a 3/4 day fishing trip on the beautiful Sea Horse II. The fun started off the bat when the kids were able to fish for bait. We were fortunate to catch and release a Sailfish and also brought in some nice size Cero Mackerel which we took to Lazy Days and had a delicious dinner. The icing on the top was the Manatee that saw us off when we got back to the dock! Thanks Captain Rick and John!

I just moved to Miami in 2022, and when I found out the Keys had great sports fishing, I went about finding a charter fire when my dad and brother could visit. I found Captain Rick on Trip Advisor, and called him to discuss my goals. He answered all my questions and I was really excited for the trip!
On the day of our trip (we had 5 people with us), we each caught a fish, my dad and brother each caught 2! We also had a few sailfish on the line, expertly spotted and cast for by Capt Rick and his first mate, Johnny. Unfortunately, we never reeled one all the way in, but what a rush!
After the day was over, Capt Rick fileted our catch and we really got insight to the way he runs his business, and we will absolutely be back.
Thank you!!!

Another great two days of fishing for our family with Captain Rick and Sea Horse Charters. Have been fishing with Rick for a number of years and he always works hard to ensure that the full family has a great time - including three young daughters - who all caught fish and left excited to go fishing again, while still landing a sailfish. Very comfortable boat with a family friendly team. Great experience all around and look forward to fishing with them again.

Rick and his crew on the Sea Horse were fantastic! The water and weather were great! My husband and I took our 4 teenagers for a full day trip and we don’t regret it one bit. We caught an assortment of yummy fish and our kids had so much fun running the lines. I couldn’t ask for a better trip or crew!

My family and I had a great time on Captain Rick’s boat! He was very good with instructions on how to reel up the fish, and with that we ended up getting some big snappers. The first mate Jon was fantastic help and very personable!

Great day out on the water on Sea Horse Charters with Capt Rick and First Mate Slammer!
Put us on grouper, cobia and some others. Just a great choice and will definitely be going back out again soon on Sea Horse!

I have been fishing with Captain Rick now for over 8 years. We have invited friends to join us and now they come to Islamorada every Thanksgiving to fish too. We have a wonderful time and Rick knows right where to go. Over the years, we have caught Grouper, Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Yellow tail, Trout.... He has a great crew too.
Now it's an annual booking for us and maybe twice during the week sometimes.

Tip are generally 20%. Some people pay more! we have received tipsily to $1000.00 for the mate and myself. Most of the time the mate gets the tip. It’s truly up to you.

I've been fishing since I was 5 on walleye lake in MN & saltwater fishing 8yrs now. I want to feel the bite & land my own fish. I don't want to be handed a rod after a mate has hooked it. Would I have that opportunity on your boat? Thanks.

Boa Terde! Gostaria de saber se alguém na tripula;áo fala português ou castelhano. qual o valor

I do not believe so. I will assume it will be very difficult to any captains or mates that do. Are you aware of the translation apps that are incredible. They actually convert the dialog to your language and vis versa. That should be a quick fix and I'm sure a lot of fun doing it. You did pick the best captain in the whale harbor fleet. He will put you on a lot of fish for sure
