Shark Fishing in Panama City Beach, 30A and Santa Rosa Beach

If you’re looking for pure power, drag-screaming runs, and an unforgettable fight on the Gulf of Mexico, our Shark Fishing Charters deliver one of the most thrilling experiences available along the Florida Panhandle.

Join Capt. Calin for a private, action-packed shark fishing trip targeting sharks that patrol the nearshore waters of Panama City Beach. From explosive blacktip sharks to powerful bull sharks, these battles are intense, physical, and unforgettable.

This is not your average fishing trip — this is heavy tackle, big baits, and serious fights.

What to Expect on a Shark Fishing Charter

Shark fishing is about strength, patience, and adrenaline.

On your trip, you may experience:

Long, powerful initial runs

Drag-pulling battles

Surface thrashing and tail slaps

Sustained fights requiring teamwork and endurance

These fish are built for power, and every hookup delivers a rush you won’t forget.

Capt. Calin strategically positions the boat in productive nearshore Gulf waters where sharks actively feed and roam.

Target Shark Species in the Gulf

Depending on season and conditions, we may encounter:

⚡ Blacktip Sharks

Fast, aggressive fighters known for aerial spins and explosive runs.

🦈 Bull Sharks

Thick-bodied, powerful predators that test both tackle and angler endurance.

🐟 Other Coastal Shark Species

Additional nearshore species may be encountered depending on time of year and migration patterns.

All shark fishing is conducted responsibly with conservation-minded practices and proper handling techniques.

We monitor tides, bait concentrations, water clarity, and weather patterns daily to determine the best shark fishing locations.

Weather permitting, we run to productive zones where sharks are actively feeding.

Techniques & Equipment

Shark fishing requires specialized gear and strategy.

Capt. Calin provides hands-on coaching to help you manage drag, rod pressure, and stamina during the battle.

If you’re looking for laid-back fishing, inshore may be a better fit.
If you want power, intensity, and a story to tell — shark fishing is it.

Private Charter Experience

Every shark fishing trip is:

100% private (no mixed groups)

Limited to a maximum of four passengers

Limiting capacity ensures comfort, space to maneuver, and a better overall experience during heavy fights.

Best Time for Shark Fishing in the Florida Panhandle

Spring through early fall often delivers:

Increased bait activity
