    Highlight of our trip!

    2 Hour Beginner Shark Fishing on April 25, 2025 • 3 adults

    This was my second time fishing with Captain Kurt, and once again, it was an unforgettable experience. I wanted to treat my dad and friend to a memorable fishing trip, so I immediately booked with Aqua Excursions. We chose the two-hour beginner shark fishing trip. Although the first hour was slow, Captain Kurt didn’t give up—he took us to a new spot and made sure each of us landed a shark, even extending our time on the water to make it happen. Captain Kurt’s deep knowledge of the area and the sharks we caught added so much to the trip, but what truly stood out were his incredible stories and passion for what he does. He’s not just a great guide—you’ll leave feeling like you’ve made a new friend. We can’t thank him enough and are already looking forward to our next outing with him. Captain Kurt, please write that book—we’d be first in line to read it!

Captain Kurt always makes sure that we have everything we need for a successful day on the water. Overall, Captain Kurt of Aqua Excursions consistently provides a 5-star experience. We can't recommend him enough and we are already looking forward to our next trip with him. If you're looking for a fantastic fishing charter experience, look no further than Captain Kurt.

    4 Hour Backcountry Trip - 2PM on June 13, 2024 • 3 adults

    Captain Kurt of Aqua Excursion is hands down the best captain we have ever had the pleasure of fishing with. Not only is he incredibly skilled at finding and catching fish, but he is also a genuinely kind and personable individual. This was our third consecutive year fishing with Captain Kurt, and each time we are blown away by his expertise and professionalism. He goes above and beyond to ensure that his guests have a memorable experience on the water. Not only did Captain Kurt put us on some incredible fish, but he also took the time to teach us about the local marine life and ecosystems. His passion for the ocean is truly inspiring, and it is evident that he cares deeply about preserving and protecting these precious resources. Overall, I cannot recommend Captain Kurt and Aqua Excursion enough. Whether you are an experienced angler or a novice, Captain Kurt will ensure that you have a fantastic day out on the water. We are already looking forward to booking our next trip with him!

    6th time fishing with Captain Kurt

    4 Hour Backcountry Trip - 8AM on July 10, 2024 • 2 adults

    . Not only does Captain Kurt always know exactly where the fish are biting, but he also takes the time to teach my son and I valuable fishing techniques and tips. He is patient, kind, and always makes sure we have a great time out on the water. I am grateful to have found such a skilled and knowledgeable captain to guide us on our fishing adventures. I look forward to many more trips with Captain Kurt in the future, and I know that my son and I will continue to create lasting memories with him by our side. Thank you, Captain Kurt, for everything you do for us.

    Great Fishing with Aqua Excursions

    2 Hour Beginner Inshore Fishing on March 16, 2024 • 2 adults

    We went fishing with Kurt Jeter with Aqua Excursions. We had a great time. We caught several beautiful Black Sea bass and did catch and release. Kurt was very well prepared with all we needed for fishing. He is a very smart fisherman, knew where to go to catch fish. We learned a lot about the fragile ecosystem of the low country. We discussed the history of the area too. We thoroughly enjoyed our fishing trip with Kurt. He even took photos and videos of our excursion. Thanks, Kurt!

    Excellent family day to end a vacation

    3 Hour Inshore - 11AM on July 5, 2024 • 3 adults • 1 child

    My son and I went out with Kurt on the last day of our vacation. It was a great way to end the trip. We were able to catch Redfish, Blacktips, Whitings and Black Sea bass in one a single 3 hour trip. Kurt gave us options on targeting other species as we each caught whatever we were targeting. He made sure to make it an enjoyable time for my 13 year old son and myself. We are avid fishermen and really enjoyed ourselves. Thanks…we will see you again on our next trip down from Ohio!!
