Located at the tip of the Panhandle, this westernmost major city of Florida is a historic beach town with a rich history and thriving culture. Known as a resort city, tourists and anglers alike come here all year round to experience everything the town has to offer. Here you can experience living history in the downtown historic districts, or take a tour of the shipwrecks lying peacefully in the gulf. One thing you have to do is experience Pensacola fishing charters. Take a boat out onto the water and go after some of the feisty catch that is found along the coast, or gather up your courage and head out into the deep sea for some real wild action. You won’t run out of things to do in town, and certainly won’t run out of water to explore.

The Emerald Coast

This whole area of the Panhandle is called The Emerald Coast. It gets its name from the beautiful emerald green waters that grace its coastline. One of the most popular tourist attractions in the nation, the beaches of the coast here are jam-packed all year round with people from around the world. The waters also offer something in the way of fishing for everyone. You can skirt the bay and explore the same waters that the Spanish trailblazers sailed on centuries ago, head down the coastline to explore some of the quieter villages, or even make your way up some of the smaller streams and rivers. Each destination will have its own unique species to fish for, and you shouldn’t be surprised when you reel in the catch of a lifetime.

It is easy to think of the southern coast and Keys when Florida comes to mind, but you’d be surprised that some of the best fishing in state is to be had up on the Emerald Coast. Pensacola is the heart of this vibrant region, and has plenty to see and do for everyone. Take a private Pensacola fishing charter to experience everything that this wonderful region has to offer.
