Freshwater/saltwater split day
Want to catch peacock bass and snook in the same day? Swamp to Sea offers the best of both worlds spending half your day fishing in Lake Ida and the rest in the intracoastal coastal waterways of Palm Beach County.
If an awesome day away from civilization is your thing this is the place for you, a lot days we see very few other people after leaving the ramp. It is a true backcountry day where the fish really are a bonus. crocodiles, dolphins,alligators,birds,sawfish are all pretty common sights. I would recommend lodging in everglades city or 35 minutes away in Marco island.

Our area is excellent for Largemouth Bass and Peacock Bass along with countless other species. We can accommodate all levels of anglers, and freshwater trips are especially good for young anglers.

Inshore/nearshore - PALM BEACH COUNTY
Fishing in Palm Beach County has a lot to offer both inshore and nearshore with its access to big pelagic species and diverse intracoastal region. On days with good weather, we can run offshore and catch mahi on fly or cruise the beach for snook and tarpon. If we stay inshore, there are plenty of big jacks and snooks along the seawalls and shorelines to explode on your mullet or topwater plug. Swamp to Sea also does night time snook and tarpon trips, a perfect way to get out of the Florida sun. If you want to catch some big fish that fight hard, this is the trip for you.
