Boca Grande was named #1 on the list of The World's Best Tarpon Fishing Spots by Sport Fishing Magazine in 2019. The tarpon, also known as the “silver king,” is a spectacular game fish famous for putting up challenging fights. The thrill of landing one can last a lifetime, and tarpon fishing in Boca Grande is an event unto itself. Each spring, anglers armed with rods, reels, and dreams converge on Charlotte Harbor and Boca Grande Pass. Tarpon usually visit Charlotte Harbor’s waters between April and October, often peaking in June.
