Private Island for Fishing and Boating at Palm Island

Looking to head farther out? Our team partners with local captains to offer a variety of fishing charters in the Port Charlotte, Sarasota, and Fort Myers FL areas. It’s a great way to enjoy the water and try your hand at catching some of Florida’s most popular species.

To learn more or arrange a fishing trip, contact our Activities Coordinator. Whether it’s your first time out or you’re a lifelong angler, we’ll help you plan a memorable day on the water.

Our activities department can also help arrange boat tours tailored to your interests. From naturalist-led excursions to scenic cruises, each trip is a chance to explore Southwest Florida’s unique marine life and mangrove-lined coast.

Enjoy a relaxing sunset cruise or watch dolphins play in the surf near our private beaches. Manatees, seabirds, and other wildlife are often spotted along the way, making every outing a one-of-a-kind experience.

If you’re looking for a more adventurous outing, offshore fishing trips can be arranged with local captains. These deeper-water trips provide access to a wide variety of fish and a new perspective of the Gulf beyond our quiet island shores.
