Directions to Boat Ramps and Launches
East Central Florida is directly east of Orlando Florida
and it's major themeparks and attractions including Disney World and the
Magic Kingdom, Universal Studios and Seaworld. Most saltwater inshore and offshore fishing is less than an hour away from any Orlando resorts or hotels.
World class fishing can be found along the coastline from
Daytona Beach to the north and Sebastian Inlet further south for saltwater species
including redfish, spotted seatrout and snook. Each location
listed is a rendezvous point where your guide will launch
the boat, start you on your fishing excursion and disembark
when finished.
For the most part the directions that instruct anglers to our fishing destinations commence in front of the Orlando International Airport (MCO) on State Road (SR) 520 and continue east as instructed on the destinations on the right of the web page. Once you've set a trip with Lagooner Fishing Guides, one of our Captains will send you an itinerary with with attached detailed instructions to the chosen meeting spot.
Simply fill out the form by clicking on the tab above [Request A Fishing Trip], press send and one of our Captains will contact you promptly.
