Meet Captain William Farace
Captain William Farace’s love for fishing began as a young boy growing up along the Florida Gulf Coast. From early mornings spent on local mangroves with his family to countless hours learning the rhythms of the tide, William developed a deep respect for the water and its wildlife. His passion for sharing these experiences with others led him to create Kids Time Fishing, a family-focused charter where kids, parents, and grandparents can enjoy hands-on, educational fishing adventures. William’s approachable personality, patience with young anglers, and genuine love for teaching make him a trusted and relatable guide for families looking to explore Naples’ waters.
With years of experience as a Naples fishing guide, Captain Farace knows the local waters better than anyone. Fully licensed and certified in boating safety, he prioritizes guest safety while delivering fun and memorable trips. His extensive knowledge of seasonal fish patterns, tides, and hotspots ensures a high success rate for both inshore and offshore adventures. Families love his attention to detail and friendly guidance, which have earned Kids Time Fishing top ratings on Fishing Booker and glowing guest reviews for its professional, enjoyable, and educational trips.
Beyond his guiding expertise, Captain William Farace is an active member of the local fishing community and a strong advocate for marine conservation. He teaches children about sustainable catch-and-release practices and participates in local habitat restoration projects to protect Naples’ fishery for future generations. Recognized for his commitment to family-friendly fishing charters and conservation education, William is more than just a guide—he’s a mentor, educator, and ambassador for Florida’s coastal waters.
