Located along Florida's historic Atlantic coast, St. Augustine offers more than just scenic beaches and rich history—it’s home to Ladies Let's Go Fishing - Outpost Academy, a women-only surf fishing experience at the Guy Harvey Outpost Resort. This academy is specially designed to introduce and refine surf fishing skills in an encouraging, all-female environment. Set against the backdrop of the Night of Lights—a beloved local festival that illuminates the city each year—the Outpost Academy’s opening day hooks participants into a memorable blend of cultural celebration and outdoor adventure.
At Ladies Let's Go Fishing - Outpost Academy, small class sizes ensure hands-on instruction from seasoned surf fishing experts who break down everything from casting techniques to understanding local tides and fish behavior. The sandy Atlantic shoreline here is dotted with native dune vegetation and shells, while anglers have a chance to catch species like pompano, flounder, and sea trout, well-adapted to the area’s temperate waters.
What makes this academy unique is its commitment to fostering a strong community of female anglers within the traditionally male-dominated sport of surf fishing. By meeting at the Guy Harvey Outpost Resort, participants have access to quality amenities and a stunning beachfront setting, making for both a relaxing and rewarding fishing outing.
The Night of Lights event adds magic to the experience, as the city’s famous holiday lights reflect on the waves, creating an unforgettable ambiance. For any woman eager to cast a line, build fishing skills, and soak up Florida’s coastal charm, Ladies Let's Go Fishing - Outpost Academy is a must-try. This spot shines as a welcoming hub right at the heart of St. Augustine’s outdoor recreation scene.
