What You Can Catch on a Deep Sea Trip Near Orlando

Fishing off Port Canaveral, just a short drive from Orlando, means getting a chance at some of the best catches Florida waters have to offer. A full day deep sea fishing trip offshore gives anglers the opportunity to reel in a wide variety of hard-fighting and great-tasting fish.

• Mangrove Snapper
• Lane Snapper
• Red Snapper (seasonal)
• Grouper
• Cobia
• Flounder
• Sharks
• Sea Bass
• King Mackerel
• Amberjack
• Dolphin (Mahi-Mahi)

Trip Length Shapes the Catch

A half day trip keeps you closer to shore where snapper, sea bass, and triggerfish are commonly found. A full day trip, running from 8 AM to 5 PM aboard the Canaveral Princess, takes you farther out into deeper water. That extra time and distance opens the door to bigger grouper, amberjack, cobia, king mackerel, and mahi-mahi. The longer you stay out, the better your chances of landing something special.

The Fish and the Fight

Each species has its own appeal. Snapper and grouper are favorites for their strong runs and incredible flavor on the table. Amberjack are known for testing endurance with their powerful pulls. Cobia and flounder bring steady fights that surprise anglers with their size. Sharks provide heart-pounding action on dedicated night shark fishing trips. King mackerel and mahi-mahi add fast-paced excitement when they move through. No two trips are alike, and that variety is what makes deep sea fishing near Orlando so rewarding.
