Private Exuma Half-Day Reef Fishing





Cast your line into the pristine Bahamian waters with our Exuma Half-Day Reef Fishing charter. Offering flexible departures from either Barraterre Dock in Rolleville or Brown's Marine in George Town, this 4-hour adventure provides an unforgettable experience tailored to every skill level.


Whether you are a beginner looking for an exciting first catch or a seasoned angler ready to drop a line on the vibrant coastal reefs, our expert local captains will guide you directly to Exuma's most active nearshore fishing spots closest to your accommodations.


Crystal Bay fishing charters provide tackle, light snacks, bait, and a time you will remember—one that will likely be the highlight of your trip.


As you drop your lines along the beautiful Exuma coast, your catch will vary depending on the season. Fish commonly caught on our charters include Grouper, Snapper, Kingfish, Barracuda, Conch, and several other vibrant reef species.

Choose Your Fishing Adventure

Because this is a private charter, we cater the style of fishing to your group's experience level and what is currently biting in the local waters:


Reef Fishing

Perfect for families, kids, or anglers looking for consistent, fast-paced action. We will anchor near Exuma's thriving coral reefs and drop lines directly to the bottom. Target delicious and aggressive reef species like Grouper, Snapper, and Barracuda.


Keep What You Catch (The "Hook and Cook" Experience)

Part of the thrill of fishing in the Bahamas is enjoying your fresh catch at the end of the day.


  • Reef & Deep Sea Species: For all legal, in-season species (like Snapper, and Grouper), you are welcome to keep what you catch! Our crewmate may be able to clean and fillet for an additional cost. We highly recommend taking your fresh fillets to a local Exuma restaurant for a traditional Bahamian "Hook and Cook" dinner.

  • Catch & Release: We strictly practice catch and release for Billfish (Marlin/Sailfish) and Sharks to protect the local marine ecosystem. (Note: If you are targeting Bonefish, Exuma adheres to a strict catch-and-release policy for this species).
