Party for four snorkel excursion. - Wonderful experience from beginning to end. Andrew was the best, very knowledgeable of the area. Asked us what kind of trip we wanted and delivered far above our expectations. Took us to some great uncrowded spots on St John and watched the time for us to make sure we had plenty of time to make it back to the ship, even made sure our taxi was waiting at the dock when we arrived back. Great snorkel equipment and a nice clean vote. I would definitely recommend this excursion for a small personal adventure

Great day charter! - We had a lovely day on the water with Andrew. He was kind, courteous and professional, and knew all the ‘secret’ spots to take us to!

We took this tour while... - We took this tour while on a Disney Cruise and loved it! We saw turtles, lots of fish, rays and especially enjoyed our stop at Scott Bay beach as we had it mostly to ourselves. Another highlight was our stop at Pizza Pi, we all enjoyed the unique experience of eating on the water (and the pizza was delicious to boot). Andrew was very accommodating and helpful. We had 4 children in our group and my older parents, so not the easiest group to take out but thanks to Andrew it was super smooth. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone as it will surely be a highlight of your trip!

Magical day! - We had a magical day on the water with Captain Andrew! We did a half day snorkel trip out of St. John ( Cruz Bay). He took us to some of the best snorkeling spots on St. John, and also showed us a really cool off-the-beaten-path spot that had sugar plantation ruins. His boat is beautiful. He clearly knows how to safely manage the boat, and be friendly and personable at the same time. He had high-quality snorkel gear for us to use, even though we brought our own, some of ours wasn’t working great, so we borrowed some of his. Captain Andrew had coolers with ice that we were able to put our food and drinks that we brought along. He also provided cold water. We felt safe the entire time, and we had so much FUN!! We saw so many cool sea creatures while snorkeling l, such as: sea turtles, stingrays, countless types of tropical fish, squid, spiny Caribbean lobsters, a really cool spotted eel, and all different types of coral! Oh, and he showed us Kenny Chesney’s house ( from the water) which we requested to see, haha! I highly recommend booking an excursion with Captain Andrew, he’s great!

Sweet cruise! - Captain Andrew was prompt, efficient, and knowledgeable. We had a potential agenda for our route, and after hearing his input, decided on our customized route, while still keeping flexible enough to decide as we went along. Ended up circling the whole island (St J) and stopping for a couple snorkeling spots (Yawzi Point being our favorite per his suggestion). Very comfortable boat, plenty of room for more than just the 5 of us. Perfect conditions for an excellent adventure at a reasonable cost. Zero complaints, highly recommend!

Wonderful Day on the Water!! - Amazing day on the water with Captain Scott! Some magical snorkeling with so much to see, from hundreds of fish to swimming with the sea turtles and sing rays. Captain was very informative and had gear for us to use. Best day on the water, couldn’t ask for a better day.
