Near Coastal Sport Fishing in Hilton Head Island

5-8 Hours • Private • Year Round (weather permitting) • Ages 14+ Recommended

This extended trip aboard our custom 25’ Sportfish departs Hilton Head Harbor for some nearshore wrecks and reefs in the < 3-5 mile range offshore.

(Lots of people would term this "Offshore" Fishing but we reserve that title for our 8 Hour runs that go much further out.)

The nearshore coastal destinations accessed in our 5-8 Hour trips might include spots like Whitewater Reef or the General Gordon Reef:

The Whitewater Reef area includes a sunken 60' Lash Barge, several Army Tanks and APCs, 20 Shipping Containers, and a 56' Landing Craft.

The General Gordon Reef includes the wreck of the General Gordon, lots of concrete and bridge rubble, and a sunken 40' deck barge.

This trips generally depart at 8 AM, with some variation. This kind of trip is certainly weather sensitive. High winds = rough water, so we go on calmer days with a good outlook.
