Our Mission
Southern Wind Charters aspires to make the thrill and adventure of offshore fishing
available to anglers of all experience levels through superior customer service and
affordable packages. The client’s satisfaction, enjoyment and safety are our top priorities.
Southern Wind is a 2022 Parker 2520 XLD Sport Cabin powered by two Yamaha 200hp outboard engines. The enclosed cabin offers comfortable seating for three with additional seating on the deck.The cabin is a welcome refuge from the hot Florida sun while the large open deck provides ample room for 4 anglers to fish comfortably at the same time.She is outfitted with the latest in electronics and safety equipment which will ensure a safe and enjoyable ride to and from the fishing spots.
One of the values Southern Wind Charters believes in firmly is taking care of what takes care of you. The water ways and habitat of the Emerald Coast provide recreation, enjoyment and a livelihood for many. Preserving where marine life lives is a responsibility entrusted on us for future generations to enjoy.
This is why we will donate 2.5% of our proceeds to the Choctawhatchee Basin Alliance (CBA). The CBA is a local non-profit organization responsible for sustaining healthy local waterways through monitoring, education, restoration, and research.
We will enter the Gulf of Mexico through the Destin Pass and fish anywhere from a few hundred yards from the beach to 9 nautical miles out. When bottom fishing we will target natural structure and ships that were sunk to form a artificial reefs. At times fishing just off the beach can prove productive for trolling and sight fishing. The clear water makes it easy to spot cruising and large schools of fish. During the warmer months patches of Sargassum grass will float into State waters providing structure for bait fish to seek shelter. This in turn will attract larger predators and we will target them!
What a wonderful 1st for my boys!! Not only did they enjoy snapper fishing , but they enjoyed being around two of the finest men...Purple Heart recipients! Jimmy and Bobby were great! I highly recommend Southern Wind Charters!
