Overview

Mobile ticket

Fish and explore the beaches of beautiful Nantucket Island with your native guide, Steve Tuna. Fish hard or simply explore and enjoy the beach. Steve knows the backroads of his island and will customize your beach adventure based upon wind, tide, beach conditions and your desires.

Each area of the Nantucket beach has a different and distinct personality. The south side of the island has the surf. The north side is more protected and much calmer. Great Point, the 7 mile long beach peninsula on the eastern shore, offers the greatest variety - an amazing combination of wildlife, pristine environment and great fishing!

Steve is dedicated to helping his guests discover the joys of Nantucket that are hidden away from the vast majority of island visitors. Beginning fishermen are welcomed! Steve will teach his guests how to cast their lures and other necessary techniques. Be prepared to make memories and, perhaps, catch a few fish!

Despite the fact that we caught no fish we had a great time, saw a beautiful part of the beach in Nantucket and learned a few things about fishing!
Great Time With Steve!

Great time with Steve. He was extremely knowledgeable and treated us like we were a part of his family. My 14 year old grandson, who is really into fishing, thought he was great. We all had a really fun time.

If you want to fish while in Nantucket, book a trip with Steve Tuna. He is the nicest host and takes care of everything. He will do everything possible to make it fun and memorable. My son, father and husband had a great time and caught some sizeable bluefish. Steve-we can't thank you enough. We hope to see you again in the future!
Great “Tuna” experience!

Steve was amazingly accommodating and was dedicated in making sure the entire family had fun. His stories of the island and driving to various spots on the beach added so much more to the experience. The entire family is hooked! Looking forward to next year!

Wow. A phenomenal time was had by kids and parents alike. With kids eager for rod time we figured this would be a fun Nantucket activity. Right move to call Steve Tuna. He brought plenty of gear, joked that his tires were deflated "I did it in May", and expertly drove us over sand through the dunes. Fishing with kids in the era of instant fun on YouTube can be hit or miss. Steve has the effortless sunniness of a man who's raised his kids and feels joy at being on the beach every day. We trekked out to the most remote part of Massachusetts (Thanks, Steve), had a glorious day of sunshine (Steve can't take credit for that one, though), and used perfectly maintained equipment (Thanks, Steve). Unfortunately none of the kids managed to catch anything (can't really blame Steve for luck) but we all had a great time and learned quite a bit (which is all Steve).
Experience to remember!

Steve was very accommodating to my 17 year old son and I. Stopped at Wicked Bakery for coffee and breakfast sandwiches before heading out on our early trek. Great conversations and shared a lot of knowledge/experiences of the island, fishing and life. We used that insight to go fishing later that week too and to find the best sand which spots on the island. Great guide and better person!
Great day of fishing!

Great day of fishing with our group! Steve was extremely knowledgeable and everyone (except 1) caught some fish - Steve was also very easy to work with and organize with as we planned the outing.

We had a fun time fishing from the beach. The views were spectacular and even though the seals were hanging around trying to eat our bounty, we liked seeing them. Thank you Steve for a fun morning and bringing my flip flop to my doorstep that I left behind.
