Participants 5 and younger must be accompanied by a paid adult. Infants & Children pay to participate. Since this is a dockside encounter, participants will not enter the water.
Water Fun
Hawk's Cay offers a broad range of water activities for the whole family.
Flats Fishing The vast amount of shallow water on ocean side flats, and on banks and flats throughout Florida Bay and the Everglades Park, provides anglers with the unique experience of Keys Flats and Backcountry fishing.
 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 general Backcountry Fishing to sightfishing, Florida Bay offers trout, sharks, barracuda, jacks and snapper.
Large Tarpon ranging to over one hundred pounds migrate through the Keys each spring and early summer. Live bait trips, particularly around dusk, offer many anglers the best chance to do battle with the Giant Silver King. Beware: Tarpon Season is very popular! Call ahead for your best booking opportunities.
Off Shore Fishing Offshore and reef fishing occurs in or near the Gulf Stream, a warm water current originating in the Gulf, running past the Keys and stretching on to England. Trolling with one of our captains can bring great success in catching spectacular Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Barracuda, Kingfish, Marlin, and Wahoo.
One of the best fishing locales in the Middle Keys is called Marathon West Hump, accessible on a full-day charter from Hawks Cay Resort. This is a sudden uprising surrounded by deep water which attracts large numbers of baitfish which, in turn, attract Mahi Mahi, Marlin, and Tuna.
We invite you to try your hand at finding Sailfish, Mackerel, and Barracuda amongst all the live and artificial reefs surrounding Duck Key. The rich coral life attracts feisty Snapper and tenacious Grouper which can provide delicious meals when fishing is done.
In the winter months (November through April), fishing is best along the reef edge to catch Sailfish, Kingfish, Yellowtail, and Mangrove Snapper. The summer months (May through October) provide great Gulf Stream action for Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and Blue Marlin.
Whether it's exploring the deep spots offshore or angling along one of America's only living coral reefs, you are sure to discover fishing in paradise with any of our experienced guides.
Fly Fishing Whether you're new to the art of fly fishing or you would like a one-on- one refresher course, our expert guides offer hands-on lessons in the use of fly rods and gear.
Learn fundamental angling terminology and skills in a full-day fishing lesson in a practical environment - the water.
Our guides can teach you how to fly cast and the basics of rods, reels, lines and leaders. You will also learn about different types of bait, unique fish behavior and how to spot some of the most elusive fish in the Keys.
Rods, reels, bait and licenses come with every excursion. Our backcountry boats best accommodate two anglers, so advanced reservations are recommended.
Scuba Splash into adventure with a diving excursion to one of North America's only living coral reefs. View the tropical fish and spectacular sea creatures of the Florida Keys. Tilden's Scuba Center at Hawk's Cay features half and full-day charters for all experience levels, with captain and dive master, equipment rental and a fully-accredited NAUI, PADI, and PDIC dive school. Open 7 days a week, 8am to 6pm.

"Offshore made learning to sail both fun and educational. After a week on a 46' Hunter, I left feeling like I could really handle a boat this big. It was a great way to build my confidence by solving many of the mysteries of sailing. It all came together. I even got to swim with dolphins!" Kathy McKlag (Spring, Texas) - Fast Track to Cruising at Hawk's Cay July 2002
