Hunting Trips : St. Vincent Refuge – Little St.George – Dog Island

Do you live the outdoorsman lifestyle? Then grab your gear and get aboard for a trip that will put you at the center of a deer hunters’ dream world. St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge is only accessible by boat and during the year, hosts limited-entry hunts and provides white tailed deer permits by a lottery system and special permit-only processes managed by FWC.

The Sambar deer hunting permit covers its unique, primitive weapons-only outing. A group application assures that up to five hunters go through the random drawing as one application for a good shot at success. Guest permits are not available and only licensed hunters have access to the refuge during these times.

The reserve is home to several endangered species and red wolves have been introduced into a breeding program. On this trip, you will be exposed to an ancient art form and way of life and return with a sense of how wild nature can become, when it is left undisturbed.

Capt. Davidson’s boat has the versatility and capacity to support true, outdoorsmen’s hobbies and provides enough deck and storage space so that you are comfortable on your trip to St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge, bringing hunting & camping supplies and getting safely back to shore.
