MARINA & FISHING 2 Fishing Experience Kick off your day with a Sunrise Breakfast Buffet on the Docks. Enhance your angler's adventure with unique catering and custom tackle box lunches. Then after your exciting day on the water, welcome your Angler's back and share your best fish stories Keys Style with a local beer and quirky weigh in.

Rates vary based on length of stay. All main marina rates include power, water, access to WiFi and cable tv. Flats/Backcountry ( Maximum of 4 people) Flats fishing with either fly gear or light spinning gear combines the experience of hunting and fishing, as you actually stalk and then cast to spectacular sport species like bonefish, permit and tarpon, often in water as shallow as a foot deep. Bonefish and permit provide long lightning-fast runs and tarpon offer leaps to amaze and challenge any angler. Full-day charters can get you to the Everglades Park where redfish and snook add to the possibilities. If you prefer the action of general backcountry fishing, Florida Bay offers trout, sharks, barracuda, jacks, and snapper. Live tarpon ranging to over one hundred pounds migrate through the Keys each spring and early summer.

Pricing does not reflect gratuity and is subject to change. MARINA & FISHING 3 MARINA & FISHING Offshore/Reef Water depths drop dramatically once boats venture beyond the main coral reef that parallels the Keys on the Atlantic side. Sportfishing boats fish anywhere from just beyond the reef, where winter months bring a wealth of kingfish and spectacular sailfish, to twenty-five to thirty miles out, where dolphin (mahi mahi) roam in the spring and summer. Accessible from Hawks Cay on full day charters are the Humps, unique areas of sudden uprising on the ocean floor which cause nutrient upwelling that attracts bait fish which, in turn, attract big predators. Here, anglers battle slammer dolphin in spring and summer, tuna in the late winter and spring. Marlin may cruise these areas feeding on dolphin in season. Big amberjacks and sharks offer another challenge. Ask about Custom Swordfish Charters, the latest big fish option in the Keys. If you prefer anchoring up and bottom fishing, our sportfishing boats offer reef and wreck fishing. The reef is only three or four miles offshore of Duck Key, so a half day charter to the reef offers lots of fishing time after a short run. Anglers can battle feisty snapper and tenacious grouper, both of which provide delicious meals when the fishing is done. If catch and release is your thing, the reef offers sport species like sharks and barracuda.

  • Tarih Ve Coğrafya
    AFYONKARAHİSAR TARİH VE COĞRAFYA Afyonkarahisar Ege Bölgesinin İç Batı Anadolu bölümü sınırları içerisinde yer alır. Kuzeyde Eskişehir, kuzeybatıda Kütahya, doğuda Konya, batıda Uşak, güneyde Burdur, güneydoğuda Isparta, güneybatıda ise Denizli illeri ile komşudur. İlin deniz seviyesinden yüksekliği 1.021 m ve yüzölçümü 13.927 km²’dir. İlde genellikle karasal iklim hüküm sürer. Kışları soğuk, yazları kurak ve sıcaktır. Merkez ilçeyle birlikte toplam 18 ilçeye sahiptir. Afyonkarahisar İli, coğrafi açıdan Türkiye’nin önemli bir geçiş bölgesinde yer almaktadır. Afyonkarahisar üzerinden Ankara, İstanbul, İzmir ve Antalya gibi büyük şehirlerin diğerşehirlerle ve iç bölgelerle bağlantısı sağlanmaktadır. Genel olarak şehir dağlık alanlar arasında yer alan ovalardan oluşmaktadır; yer yer akarsu vadileriyle yarılmış platolar mevcuttur. İl sınırlarının doğu ve kuzeydoğusunda Emir dağları, güneydoğusunda Karakuş ve Sultan dağları, batısında Ahırdağları yer almaktadır. Afyon Ovası, Sincanlı Ovası, Sandıklı Ovası, Çöl Ovası ve Şuhut Ovası ilin önemli ovalarıdır. Eski Tunç Çağından itibaren birçok medeniyete ev sahipliği yapmıştır. Sandıklı Kusura Höyüğünde yapılan kazılarında ve Hitit döneminde yerel kaplar, Frig döneminde Ana Tanrıça Kybele için kaya tapınakları, Roma döneminde yerel heykelcilik öne çıkan özelliklerindendir. Görülen bu özellikleriyle Afyonkarahisar’ın Anadolu’da bulunan diğer şehirler için bir köprü görevi üstlendiği görülmektedir. Bu nedenledir ki Anadolu’nun bütünlüğünü ele geçirmek veya korumak için yapılan büyük savaşlardan İpsos (M.Ö.301), Miryekefelon (1176), Büyük Taarruz (1922) Afyonkarahisar topraklarında yapılmıştır. Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Devletinin temeli Afyonkarahisar’da atılmış olup her dönem Anadolu’nun kilidi olmuştur. HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY Afyonkarahisar is 1.021 meters above sea level and its surface area is 13.927 square kilometers. The climate is generally continental. Winters are cold, summers are hot and dry.
