Charlotte County GPS Numbers

GPS Coordinates > Southwest > Charlotte

Charlotte County wraps around Charlotte Harbor, with Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda and Boca Grande bordering the harbor. Charlotte Harbor is well know internationally as one of the best Tarpon fishing grounds in the world. There are many islands, creeks, passes, bays, and artifical reefs to fish with Charlotte Harbor being the most popular for big tarpon & shark. During the winter months fishing the inlets, creeks, and around the small islands anglers get lots of action on Seatrout, Snook, and Redfish. We have included a few close Lee County sites in our list. For more close by sites visit Sarasota County and Lee County's reef charts.
