Take a look at the featured destinations along the Atlantic Ocean in the state of Florida and down into the Florida Keys.
Northeast Florida
Northeast Florida is home to some awesome fishing opportunities. This part of Florida is more fun to visit from spring through fall. The fishing can be good in the winter as well, but this is the part of Florida with the coolest water temperatures due it being located farther north and on the Atlantic Ocean. The warmer temperatures from late spring through fall will attract more visitors and the fishing is very good during this time of year as well.
In this part of Florida, you have access to beaches, inshore fishing with several rivers, good offshore fishing options, plenty of lodging, big city life, plenty of parks and outdoor recreational opportunities as well.

Central East Florida
The east coast of Central Florida is home to Daytona Beach, Sebastian and the Space Coast. This area attracts a lot of visitors every year since its beaches are a fairly short drive from Orlando, Florida. The beaches can get crowded in this area, so surf fishing can be a bit more challenging with all the people, but if you want to do some fishing, you do have options to fish from the beaches, piers, bridges, inshore and offshore too.

There are many different species of fish to target, but snook, redfish, tarpon and sea trout are the preferred target for most inshore anglers. To go along with the excellent fishing, this area is also home to some beautiful beaches, a variety of restaurants and lodging.
