The family-owned Madeira Beach fleet continues to stand out among the nation’s top charter operators.
MADEIRA BEACH, Fla., April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Hubbard’s Marina, a family-owned and operated business serving Florida’s Gulf Coast since 1928, has once again been nominated for USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards in the category of Best Fishing Charter—marking its fifth consecutive year receiving national recognition.
Widely regarded as one of the premier fishing operations in Pinellas County, Hubbard’s Marina brings together several hundred years of combined on-the-water experience. That legacy of excellence continues to resonate with guests and industry experts alike.
In 2022, Hubbard’s Marina earned its first nomination and went on to be named the #1 Best Fishing Charter in the country, along with a #8 ranking for Best Boat Tour. Since then, the marina has consistently been recognized as the nation’s top charter operator, earning multiple nominations and four consecutive wins in the fishing charter category and were looking forward to a 5th consecutive win this year!
This year, Hubbard’s is once again competing alongside an elite group of charter companies from across the country, ranging from the Pacific Northwest to the Caribbean. “We were honored just to be nominated, but to be recognized alongside so many outstanding operators nationwide is truly incredible. Winning each year has been a nice bonus,” said Captain Dylan Hubbard. “We’re passionate about creating unforgettable experiences on the water, and it means so much to know our guests feel the same way.”
Nominees for the 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards are selected by a panel of industry experts and editors, with final rankings determined by public vote.
