Whether you're an experienced hunter or completely new to the activity, our guided charters are safe, exciting, educational, and fully customized for your group.
Why Iguana Hunting Matters in Florida
Green iguanas are an invasive species in Florida and have become a growing problem throughout the Keys and South Florida. Originally introduced from Central and South America, iguanas have few natural predators in Florida and reproduce rapidly, with females capable of laying dozens of eggs each year.
Their growing population causes damage to native vegetation, seawalls, landscaping, roads, docks, and wildlife habitats. Iguanas also threaten native species by competing for food sources and disrupting delicate local ecosystems.
Responsible iguana removal plays an important role in protecting the Florida Keys environment while offering a truly unique outdoor experience for visitors.
