About Hernando Beach
Life in Hernando Beach revolves around the water. Minnow Creek is the northern boundary of Hernando Beach. It has lured fishermen to the area for many years. It is also known for its scalloping, and many members make use of our club in Hernando to harvest scallops.
We are located at the Hernando Beach Motel which offers discounts to our members. Our staff will exceed your expectations and so will the fishing. Come and explore the numerous boating activities along this beautiful nature’s coast with its hidden inlets and warm water fishing holes.
Fishing is a favorite pastime in the Hernando Beach area. It is known for its Tarpon fishing and has a plentiful supply of redfish, snook and sea trout. Our dock staff always has some hot fishing tips. Ask them!
We Take Care of It All...Including the Boats
We’ve taken care to select a variety of quality boats. And we always keep them clean and maintained. We also take care of the storage, insurance and repairs. So you can just focus on the fun!
Pay a 1x Entry Fee and Monthly Dues
Just pay a 1x entry fee and choose one of our membership plans. Boat every day of the year. Or just weekdays. Some clubs may even have 3 and 6 month plans. And you can change your plan as the need arises.

Your safety is our No. 1 concern. So we give all our members unlimited training with certified captains. And if you wish to boat in a new location, they’ll show you the waterways.
