Saltwater Fishing

Fishing on Marco Island

Marco Island sits at the northern edge of the Ten Thousand Islands, a vast, largely undeveloped maze of mangrove islands and backwater creeks that is considered some of the best tarpon and snook water in Florida. The island itself also offers Gulf beach and nearshore fishing.

The backcountry creeks and bays south of Marco Island toward the Ten Thousand Islands are prime tarpon and snook territory, especially for anglers fishing with a local guide who knows the maze of channels. Capri Pass and the beach front produce pompano and Spanish mackerel in season.
