Want closer action? Go inshore. Want pelagics and longer runs? Go offshore. If unsure, ask your captain to recommend based on conditions.
Choose space and comfort based on people, kids, and motion sensitivity. Private trips feel better when the boat fits the group.
Longer trips expand range. Avoid confusion by booking each date separately and confirming departure logistics in writing.
