Spearfishing
Pensacola Spearfishing Charters are available for Booking Online aboard the Niuhi.
With a rich, vibrant history of spearfishing tradition, and over a thousand artificial reefs providing habitats for fish just off the coast, Pensacola is known for being one of the best places to spearfish in Florida. Scuba divers can combine their love of diving with the sport of fishing for an unforgettable underwater experience.
Captain Andy’s Federal reef fishing permit allows Niuhi customers to spearfish in both state and federal waters. While most other Pensacola boats are restricted to state waters, the Niuhi can take you further and deeper to where the big fish really are.
Target species:
- Grouper
- Red Snapper
- Amberjack
- Almaco Jack
- Mangrove Snapper
- Lionfish
