COVID-19 and Tuna Hunter Fishing Charters
Gloucester MA

Tuna Hunter is happy to welcome fishing charter customers for the 2023 Gloucester fishing season . While we hope the worst of COVID-19 is behind us, we will be following COVID 19 developments and implement any recommended restrictions at the time of your charter. As of now, masks and distancing are not required, and there are no travel restrictions into Massachusetts or into the United States. We hope it stays that way!

Please note that we still follow recommended COVID-19 guidelines and cleanliness protocols. We will respect your choice to wear masks and distance, if that is what makes you comfortable.

Should COVID-19 status and/or local recommendations or regulations change, we will post any relevant updates here.

Please note that:

Effective August 1st, 2021, there are no Massachusetts travel restrictions.
Effective April 18, 2022, masks are no longer required on public transportation.
Effective June 12, 2022, air passengers traveling to the United States are no longer required to show a negative COVID-19 test or documentation of recovery from COVID-19 before boarding

The most important thing you can do to help protect yourself and others from COVID-19 is to get vaccinated and get a booster when you are eligible.

Your health and safety are most important as we get out on the water to enjoy bluefin tuna fishing, haddock fishing, striped bass fishing, shark fishing, whale watching and/or inshore striped bass fishing.

Please stay safe, get vaccinated, get boosted, and enjoy your friends, family and outdoor recreation!
