Trip Minimums

Due to high operational costs associated with every fishing trip, the Crystal Dawn does require a minimum of 15 customers to take each trip out.

In the event that the Crystal Dawn doesn’t reach it’s minimum capacity to set out for a trip, all customers will be offered the opportunity to reschedule or a full refund for their trip. We will do our best to make this determination 2 hours prior to departure or by 9PM the night before the early morning trips.

Feel free to call or text our reservations team at 252-251-4314 if you have questions about whether a trip has enough passengers to run.

Family fishing at it’s finest! Bring everyone aboard the Crystal Dawn and make some Outer Banks memories to cherish for the rest of your life!


With fun for the whole family, a half-day inlet and sound fishing trip aboard the Crystal Dawn head boat is an outstanding choice for your Outer Banks adventure! The Crystal Dawn is a 65-foot head boat that offers a welcoming experience for anglers and non-anglers alike, giving you plenty of space to relax and enjoy the water.

Our experienced crew provides everything you need for a memorable day on the water — including bait, rods, reels, tackle, fish bags, and your fishing license — so all you have to do is show up ready to have a great time.

The inlet and surrounding waters are rich with a variety of species for you to try your luck at, such as spot, croaker, flounder, grey trout, speckled trout, puppy drum, sea mullet, blues, sea bass, and more.

Not interested in fishing? No problem! Whether you’re soaking up the sunshine on deck or relaxing and taking in the spectacular views, the Crystal Dawn experience is perfect for anyone who loves being out on the water.

The Crystal Dawn comfortably accommodates up to 50 anglers on fishing trips, with room for more on other excursions, and we’d be happy to discuss private charters for your next special event!
