Private Charter Saltwater Fishing with Ocean Skeet Shooting

Miami is famous for its vibrant nightlife, stunning beaches, and incredible offshore sportfishing – but what if you could combine all that with a dash of gambling on waves, and an unexpected twist of clay shooting on the open ocean? Enter the private Saltwater Fishing with Ocean Skeet Shooting experience offered by SALT Luxury Miami. Though we haven’t personally sailed on this yacht, multiple glowing reviews suggest that it offers a unique, high-end adventure that both fishing enthusiasts and thrill-seekers will find hard to forget.

The drawback? This experience isn’t exactly budget-friendly at $3,000 per group, which makes it most appealing to those celebrating milestones, corporate groups, or families looking for an exceptional day. Still, with such lavish amenities, expert crew, and the novelty of ocean skeet shooting, many say it’s well worth the price for those craving an upscale day on the water.

What we love about this experience? First, the personalized, private setting means no crowded boats or touristy atmospheres. Second, the combination of fishing and skeet shooting offers a rare opportunity for building camaraderie, enjoying nature, and trying a new sport. A minor consideration? The entire album of activities runs around 4 hours, so if you’re looking for a longer, multi-day trip, you might need to consider adding upgrades or exploring other options.

A Closer Look at the Experience

Setting out on a 75-foot Hatteras Yacht

Picture starting your day at 300 Alton Rd, Miami Beach, where you’re greeted and onboard a sleek, impeccably maintained yacht. The craft is described as spacious and luxurious, equipped with amenities you wouldn’t expect on a typical fishing trip. With up to 6 guests included, it’s a perfect setting for close friends, family, or colleagues to relax while cruising through South Florida’s famous waters.

The yacht isn’t overly crowded, which is part of its allure. Unlike typical fishing charters where you share the space with a dozen others, this journey is private, tailored just for your group. The crew, consisting of the captain and two experienced mates, focus wholly on delivering a five-star service, including help with fishing and safety during skeet shooting.

Fishing in South Florida’s Prime Waters

As the boat departs, you’ll quickly realize the appeal of the location — South Florida’s offshore waters are some of the best for saltwater fishing. The equipment provided is tournament-grade, making even beginners feel like professionals. If you’re lucky, as some reviewers have, you might hook tuna, sailfish, or wahoo, with one guest catching five big fish during their trip.

While this is primarily a fishing activity, the crew is praised for their helpfulness, patience, and skill at guiding both first-timers and seasoned anglers. One reviewer points out: “The crew was fantastic,” and credits the team for a memorable, successful day.

The Ocean Skeet Shooting: A First for Many, Not for All

One truly unique feature of this tour is the ocean skeet shooting over the water. The targets are biodegradable and eco-friendly, a concern for any ocean activity. Even if you’ve never shot a gun before, a safety instructor provides lessons, safety gear, and gets everyone comfortable.

Multiple reviews remark that the shooting was surprisingly fun and for everyone – beginners or experts. Some competitors missed targets, but the thrill of firing over the waves, with the sky and water as your backdrop, sets this apart from any ground-based trap shoot you’ve done. For some, it becomes the highlight of the day, especially since it’s a totally novel experience.

How the Day Unfolds

Depending on the package you choose, your trip may last 2, 4, or 8 hours. The most common review describes a 4-hour adventure — plenty of time for fishing, some shooting, and enjoying the yacht’s amenities.

• Start with a brief orientation from the crew on fishing and skeet safety
• Offshore fishing begins shortly after departure, with options to target local species
• During downtime, guests can lounge on the spacious deck, enjoy bottled water and ice, or take in Miami’s skyline
• The option for “call for custom upgrades” like a private chef or live bait offers further personalization

Key to Success: Experienced Crew & Safety

Others’ reviews highlight the professionalism and friendliness of the team, with many calling out Gabriela and the crew members for ensuring everyone’s enjoyment. Safety is taken seriously, especially for skeet shooting, with safety lessons and ocean-safe ammo supplied.

The Value Proposition

For $3,000, this private, all-inclusive experience offers a remarkable blend of luxury, adventure, and exclusivity. With the yacht’s luxury amenities, state-of-the-art gear, and personalized service, it represents a step above typical boat trips in Miami. When you consider all that’s included — the boat, gear, water, ice, and professional guidance — plus the chance to catch fish or shoot clay targets — many find the price justified, especially for a special celebration or corporate event.

That said, the true value rests in the experience’s unique nature. It’s not just about fishing; it’s about creating memories in a setting far more upscale and tailored than most public charters.
