Bonus Time Charters & Captain Bryan - Go no where else. Straight here. I cannot express how impressed I was with Captain Bryan and his professionalism. To be a young man and have the level of his mariner skills along with his ability to make sure the customer is having a top notch experience is unbelievable. I would hire this man for my company just based on what I seen yesterday. He impressed me and as a small business owner, that doesn't happen too often in today's workforce. Just book with this company and ask for Captain Bryan. Then relax and have fun.

Highlight of our trip! - My husband and I had a fantastic time on a full-day charter with Bonus Time Charters. Captain Andrew was the best. His boat was clean, and we felt completely safe with him taking us around the island and surrounding cays. He tailored the day to our interests and skill level. Andrew took us to about 7 snorkel spots in the St. John area, including several spots you can’t reach by shore. He was very knowledgeable about each of the snorkel spots and told us what to look for. We saw an abundance of fish, two spotted eagle rays cruising together, a reef shark, southern stingrays, tarpon, sea turtles, and a lot of soft coral and sponges. Another highlight was visiting a floating pizza restaurant in Christmas Cove for lunch. The day with Andrew was a highlight of our trip. We would definitely book him again if we come back to St. John.

10/10 Expierence - We had a group of 7 women on this trip and it was AMAZING!! Captain Andrew was wonderful, very professional but laid back and fun. Gave us tons of information throughout the trip. We went from Red Hook and he took us all around St. John, including Lime Out! We saw TONS of sea turtles and marine life!!
We all agreed that we would love to do this again and if we could have done this trip every day we were at St. Thomas, we would.
Overall this experience was 10/10 and we would definitely be back!!

Sun, snorkel and tacos - Captain Andrew was beyond exceptional. We asked for snorkeling and he delivered with 4 separate spots that were amazingly beautiful. We not only saw so many colorful fish but at a couple of the locations we were able to see sea turtles and sting rays. We also saw squid, and got to see an Eagle ray which Captain Andrew said was a special treat. He showed us Kenny Chesney's house past and present, the house Oppenheimer retired to, the luxurious $80 million dollar home of the person that bought Little St James and plans to turn it into a resort (don't think we'll be visiting it though lol). We also made our way to the famous Lime Out for some of the best tacos I've ever had. This charter was truly one of our best decisions and Captain Andrew was just amazing!

Awesome memory making experience. - Captain Andrew provided a wonderful memory making experience for our family group of nine. He worked with us to customize our trip, with four snorkel stops and lunch at Lime Out. He was very knowledgeable of the pros and cons of different areas and gave us helpful guidance to locate turtles and explore the coral reefs. He was very professional but also quite personable. We would highly recommend a boat/snorkel trip with Bonus Time Charters.

Great Day on the Water - We had an awesome time boating around St Thomas and St John! Captain Andrew knew all the best spots to see on the island, and made sure we got to do and see everything on our bucket lists! He took us to the best places to snorkel, we saw many reefs teeming with colorful sea creatures. Favorite spot of this trip was an isolated beach, only accessible by boat. Beautiful crystal clear blue water and white sands all to ourselves… you can’t get better than that. Then lunch at a floating taco bar. Just an incredible experience we were thankful to have done while on the island.
