Captain Sean, Captain Tuna, Captain Nate, and the rotating crew here consistently deliver exceptional snorkel and sunset cruises around St. Thomas. Guests rave about how knowledgeable and entertaining the captains are, sharing island history and local stories while expertly navigating to prime spots for turtle sightings and vibrant coral reefs. The crew's attentiveness stands out in nearly every review—they're constantly checking in, refilling drinks, and making sure everyone feels welcome and cared for throughout the journey. The snorkel tours typically include three stops with comprehensive safety instructions, and the food impresses beyond expectations with fresh, thoughtful meals that feel surprisingly upscale for a charter. Multiple reviewers appreciated the eco-friendly touch of reusable dishes instead of disposables. Even with boats at full capacity (around 24-30 guests), the catamarans never feel cramped. The six-hour snorkel adventure and sunset champagne cruise both get glowing feedback for the perfect balance of adventure, relaxation, and that personal touch that makes guests feel like more than just another tour group.
They do a wonderful job at everything, captain is funny and engaging, first mate is very attentive on drinks and food and anything you need, the snorkeling is awesome and they go through the history of the islands. 10/10 you must do this day snorkel trip if you are in the Virgin Islands.
