Explore Tampa Bay’s islands, creeks, and sandbars on a four-hour fishing charter with a Florida native captain.

About this tour

Spend four hours exploring Tampa Bay with Captain Jason Dozier, a Florida native who grew up fishing and navigating the region’s backcountry and intercoastal waterways. His local knowledge and U.S. Coast Guard 50-ton master captain’s license bring experience to a trip across these distinctive coastal waters.

Your fishing charter visits some of Tampa’s beautiful islands, creeks, and sandbars. Tampa Bay is Florida’s largest open-water estuary, spanning nearly 400 square miles and bordering Hillsborough, Manatee, and Pinellas counties. Fishing equipment, licenses, bottled water, and a cooler with ice are provided; bring any food and additional drinks you’ll need.

Meet Captain Jason at the floating docks by the boat ramp, where designated parking is free. Set out to fish and take in the scenery with a captain who is passionate about sharing the waters he knows so well. Book your Tampa fishing charter for a day on the bay.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 57 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Tampa
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.8. Top 6% in Tampa means it ranks in the top 6% of tours in Tampa by this score.
