    Took our daughter fishing with Getaway Charters on her 21st birthday. Captain Gary and Deck-hand Tristan were absolutely awesome. We had a great time and look forward to doing it again soon. HIGHLY recommend this.

    I’ve been on several trips with Getaway Charters. Captain Don and Captain Josh are great. This was my first trip out with Captain Gary. He made the whole day about doing what we wanted to do. He got us on the fish that we wanted. The thing that sets 5 Star trips apart is the Deck Hand. Tristan was great. He worked his tail off keeping our hooks baited and in the water. When we hooked a 7’ Bull Shark, we couldn’t have gotten him in without Tristan. Thanks for making this an awesome trip.

    This charter knows how to fish! It's clear that Captain Gary knows his spots well. He with the help of Tristen really made the whole experience very exciting and effortless for our group. There's no doubt I will be going back for more. I did the 6 hour trip, and would highly recommend doing at least the 8 if you want some big boys! Can't thank Captain Gary and Tristen enough for ringing in my birthday and getting a great haul for us to take back!

    We had a great time. Captain Gary made sure to find us the best places to fish. And we caught a few good ones. Tristan was a great help with our 2 oldest grandkids we has one that was seasick but Tristan made him compy. Another Getaway is the cleanest boat I have ever been on. Tristan takes great pride in keeping her clean. And girls around 21 well Tristan is a hottie. Thanks Captain Gary and Tristan for making our trip a memorable one. Pam and George and grandkids Keigan and Liam

    My family of four did a 5 hour trip over Spring Break and was so glad we did, despite some rough waters that afternoon. Capt. Josh put us on the fish, to the point where a few times, we'd move to a spot, drop the lines in and immediately get bites. We caught multiple good sized Red Snappers and Trigger Fish. Thad was great with my kids(15 & 9), ensuring they knew what to do at all times, and were always baited up. He worked hard to ensure we got to spend as much time with bait in the water as possible. He let me net one of my daughter's fish and even let my daughter net one of my son's bigger fish. Thad was also very helpful to my wife who unfortunately battled sea sickness the whole time. I take my kids fishing to spend time together as a family, and to create memories, and Getaway Charters delivered for us

    Captain Josh and Corey could not have been better hosts and guides for my daughter and I. So knowledgeable and patient for our first fishing charter. We had a blast and are looking forward to our next one on the Getaway.

    We are so glad to have booked a 12 hour trip with Getaway. Capt. Josh and deck hand Corey were awesome . Even though we had few mishaps in the trip the Lord blessed us with some great fish ,like this 62lb wahoo . It was the first one of the season, caught at this dock. Thanks again and God bless to Capt. Josh and Getaway charters.

    Our 12 hour deep sea fishing trip was everything we hoped it would be and more. Thanks Captain Josh and Corey for a trip of a lifetime.

    Great charter boat, captain & crew! We booked the 6-hr bottom fish / trolling charter a few months before the trip & a forecasted storm forced us to reschedule the charter. The captain communicated very early about the approaching storm & handled all the rescheduling so we were still able to get out fishing. We were so grateful for his proactive planning & scheduling accommodations around our flight! We trolled for Spanish mackerel in the inlet before heading out to jig for bottom fish. The captain took us to a few productive holes that were ~6 miles out. We caught lots of red snapper & triggerfish. The crew hooked a big grouper that we got to reel in which was fun; it was eaten by a shark right next to the boat so that made for an exciting (& bloody) finale for the day! The boat has comfy leather seating with a clean bathroom & Bluetooth speakers throughout. The fishing deck has a big live well & plenty of space for a few people. The slip's at a nice marina with clean bathrooms & a restaurant that will cook your fresh fillets

    We decided to take Getaway Charters in Orange Beach while we were on vacation. Captain Josh and Corey made sure that we were able to catch plenty of fish to take home to eat for dinner that night. A great day, we will definitely be back with Captain Josh in the future!

    Me and my son had a great time. You couldn’t ask for a better professional fishing charter. We would definitely fish with Getaway Charters again! Everyone one was very helpful and extremely nice being it was our first time out on a deep sea fishing trip. I would definitely recommend a 10+ hour trip as 6 hour went by to fast lol

    Capt Gary on Another Getaway put us right on the fish! We caught our limit of red snapper and then our kids wanted to catch a shark. Mate Tristan worked hard to make a memory that will never be forgotten, a 9 Ft 300 lb + bull shark! They were the best!

    Brought my son, his best friend and two nephews for a 6 hr trip on the Getaway. Captain Josh and FirstMate Corey went the extra mile to make sure our trip was a success and a whole lot of fun. Highly recommend Getaway for your outing in Orange Beach. We’ll definitely be back to fish with them again.

    We used Getaway Charters for our annual guys fishing trip in October. Josh was our captain for our trip with Corey being the deck hand. I definitely recommend this outfit. Josh dutifully and successfully worked to put us on the fish great personality. Treated our party like we had been friends and wanting us to have the best experience. Corey, this young man worked his tail off the entire trip. We never had to ask or wait for hooks to be baited he was there to answer any questions and fix any issues with gear. If I could give 10 stars I would. Will definitely book this charter again. The boat was clean and orderly and more than comfortable for our party of six. Thank you Josh and Corey for a great experience.

    Our family of 4 went on a 5 hour afternoon cruise with Captain Josh and Thad on Another Getaway for trolling and a little bottom fishing. Our sons (8 and 15) are opposites (typical and ASD/FX). It was most of our first fishing trip and our 8yr old still hasn't stopped talking about it a week later. He caught the most and Captain Josh even let him be the 1st mate for awhile. Thad was fantastic! He made sure the rods were baited and encouraged our new fisherman to reel the fish in on his own. He explained the fish we caught and pointed out the dolphins that were awaiting our throwbacks. Another Getaway was super comfortable inside the cabin as well, which is where our 15yr old son spent the fishing trip. He sat comfortably in the AC with his tablet watching videos and looking out at the ocean. He didn't want to fish, but I'm sure Thad would have been super helpful had he wanted to. Captain Josh and Thad even helped get our land-loving son on and off the boat, making the step easier by bring the boat closer to the dock and providing extra hands. If you are looking for a great fishing experience, I highly recommend Getaway Charters. For those families with opposite kids like we do, they make the trip great for all. Thank you Captain Josh, Thad and Getaway Charters for an experience to remember!

    We had an amazing time with Getaway Charters. Tristan on Another Getaway was absolutely fantastic with our kids and helping every step of the way. Caught our limits on Red Snappers and Vermillion’s on the 6 hour morning trip! This is our 3rd trip in the past 3 years and it just gets better and better! Thank you for the lifetime of memories and great start to our vacation!!!

    Captain Josh and his First Mate Corey were amazing and Another Getaway is a beautiful boat. My son was seasick for pretty much our entire 10 hour trip but they took care of him and made him comfortable so we could keep fishing. Highly recommend Getaway Charters! Corey if you see this send me that video you took of me catching that shark! 🤣

👍👍 8.00 a person is maybe just a bit steep for 4 or 5 times around, but the experience will be remembered by the kids, so worthwhile. Folks were friendly and we walked right on, so no complaints about all that. Enjoyed it
