Along the hook of Florida's panhandle, the Forgotten Coast offers visitors some of the best fishing and water experiences of anywhere in Florida. Communities such as Cape San Blas, Port St. Joe, and Mexico beach offer you completely unique experiences because of the vast ecological community. The Gulf of Mexico lies on one side and two different bays separates the strip of islands from the mainland which means many different species and fishing experiences.
As you're planning your next Forgotten Coast visit, plan ahead so you know where you can get the gear you need and book your fishing charters or boat rentals to ensure you maximize your time on the water. Use this guide to help you get started!
If you need something quick and close by in Mexico Beach, use Shell Shack for souvenirs, a bit of tackle, and great seafood for sale if your catch comes up short.
Blue Water is the biggest outfitters in the area with all the tackle, bait, and supplies you need or can handle. Ask the employees for some great knowledge on the area and pro tips before you head out on the water!
Scallop Cove offers gas, boat rentals, tackle, area knowledge, a gift shop and Ggrowlers of beer to boot. Their store is full service on the cape and you can also check out Scallop Cove II in the state park.

Captain Clint offers simple pontoon rentals on the bay. You can fish out of a pontoon but the best part is, if you're not getting any bites, you can just cruise and relax all day long.
