Get ready to cast off for a cause at the Key West Gator Club Dolphin Derby, a fun and competitive fishing tournament with more than $15,000 in guaranteed cash prizes. This laid-back derby is all about big mahi, good vibes, and giving back—proceeds go toward scholarships for local students heading to the University of Florida. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or just along for the boat snacks, this event is full of island spirit.
In true Key West fashion, it’s not just about the fishing. Expect weigh-ins with a waterfront view, cool drinks, friendly banter, and plenty of orange-and-blue pride. It’s a great way to spend a weekend supporting education while soaking in that sweet Keys sunshine. Gator fans and fishing fans alike will feel right at home.
