From Our Family to Yours...
• Paradise Tails Inc. is a small Florida Keys Mr & Mrs commercial fishing and seafood operation, featuring our crab boat "The Ugly Crabbling". We pride ourselves on offering the best seafood, fresh directly from the sea to your table, with nothing in between except your dedicated fisherman (of course). Our products contain no chemicals, additives, or preservatives, and you won't find 30 hands touching your seafood. Experience the difference of quality seafood that comes directly from our family to yours, fresh out of the sea.
***********************************************
*We often receive questions about what sets us apart from other seafood providers and inquiries about our prices. Paradise Tails Inc. is an independent, small family-owned and operated business. We are second-generation licensed commercial fishermen, Scott Bruno and myself (Captain Morgan), both fully licensed in commercial fishing, seafood wholesale/retail, and I hold a 100-ton Master Captain charter license. Together, we operate our crab boat "The Ugly Crabbling" with just one additional crew member.
The primary difference between us and other seafood suppliers is that our seafood, including our stone crab and lobster, comes directly from the sea and goes straight to you.
Most seafood you find at other places is typically fished by large, underpaid crews working for companies with thousands of traps that are often not even local. This seafood is sold to wholesalers, treated with chemical preservatives (sometimes even on the boat!), frozen, and stored for years before it reaches your plate, handled by at least 15 different people along the way. Much of that seafood is far from fresh, often not local, and some isn't even from this country, despite claims of being "fresh local" seafood.
The seafood we provide comes directly from our boat to your table—no middlemen involved. Our three-person crew, comprised of family, braves all weather conditions to catch the best seafood available. We may not be a large operation, but we take pride in delivering quality fresh seafood that we enjoy ourselves.
Being completely independent and not tied to a fish house or distributor allows us to keep our prices reasonable. All our lobster and stone crab claws come directly from the sea to our boat, or occasionally from a trusted fleet partner, right to your table.
Our shrimp is sourced from a local shrimp boat, just like ours.
From our family to yours.
We now also offer charters so you can see where your seafood comes from firsthand. 🦀 🦞 🦀
