RELAX and HAVE FUN in the unique Florida EVERGLADES
Near MARCO ISLAND and NAPLES, Florida

If you love nature and boating you've come to the right place. We're located on Florida's "Paradise Coast" in the southwest Florida Everglades near Marco Island and Naples on the Gulf of Mexico. Take one of our eco tour charters through the coastal Ten Thousand Islands area of the Everglades. We can offer you the finest of Florida Everglades charter fishing with Capt. John Stop to guide you on one of his Florida backwater fishing charters. If your taste runs to ecotourism, Capt. Pam Stop can offer a guided Everglades sightseeing eco boat tour / nature and wildlife cruise that includes dolphin watching, manatee scouting, birding, and shell collecting excursion while exploring our remote beaches accessible only by boat during your visit in southwest Florida. We have been showing families a good time here since 1986.

Are you tired of crowds and tourist atmosphere? Want to get off the beaten track and see nature at her finest? GREAT!! Charter our friendly native fishing guide to go on a backwater Florida fishing charter, or you can charter our Everglades sightseeing boat to take an eco tour/nature and wildlife boat cruise to savor the sights and sounds of the subtropical 10,000 Islands on the edge of the Florida Everglades. Charter Captain John Stop on the "STRIKE" or charter Captain Pam Stop on the "EVERGLADES RENDEZVOUS" Our boat charters operate every day of the year. Both of our captains hold commercial U.S. Coast Guard Master Captain Licenses, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission Guide Permits, and are fully insured. We are also certified by the Society for Ethical Ecotourism in Southwest Florida, established to maintain a professional code of ethics to help preserve and protect our natural resources, and supporting members of the Coastal Conservation Association.

We'd love to welcome you to Florida's "Last Paradise". Start your Everglades adventure in the tiny fishing village of Goodland. Stop's Marine Charters is located in southwest Florida at Calusa Island Marina, just 4 miles from Marco Island and about 20 miles south of Naples, Florida on the Gulf of Mexico. Marvel with us at the uniqueness of the coastal Florida Everglades and sun-drenched 10,000 Islands (trust us, there are at least 10,000 islands).

Since we personalize our fishing and eco tour charters and accommodate only six passengers per trip, reservations are necessary. Please use our "Contact" page to email any questions you may have after you visit our Fishing Charters and Everglades Eco Tours pages that include plenty of photos and detailed information on each activity. CALL US DIRECTLY at (239) 394-8000 to reserve your backwater fishing charter on the "Strike" or become an ecotourist on the "Everglades Rendezvous" on a sightseeing eco tour charter that includes searching for our local dolphin pods, scouting manatees and other marine wildlife, birding, and exploration of remote beaches on a shelling excursion. WE LOVE TO MAKE MEMORIES FOR A LIFETIME AND HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON.
