About Captain Joey D Charters
Captain Joey D Charters is a veteran-owned fishing charter and boat rental service operating from the City Dock on Fifth Avenue South in the heart of Naples. Captain Joey D has been running backwater, offshore, and sightseeing trips in Collier County for over 30 years, building a loyal following of repeat clients and earning consistently high marks from first-time visitors.
Fishing charters cover the full spectrum of Southwest Florida angling: backwater trips through the mangrove estuaries targeting snook, redfish, and spotted seatrout; nearshore reef trips for grouper and snapper; and offshore excursions chasing kingfish, cobia, and seasonal tarpon. Boat rentals are also available for guests who want to captain their own vessel around Naples Bay, with options ranging from small skiffs to larger deck boats suitable for family outings. Sightseeing and shelling island tours round out the menu.
What keeps Captain Joey D at the top of local charter lists is the personal touch — trips are run by the captain himself, not a rotating roster of mates, so you get the benefit of three decades of local knowledge on every outing. The Fifth Avenue dock location is easy to reach on foot from downtown Naples, and the captain is known for accommodating families with young anglers alongside serious fishermen.
