    Hands down my favorite way to spend a day on St John! If you like being on the water and exploring the island there is no better way to do it than by renting a zodiac from Wharfside Watersports. The zodiac has everything you need to enjoy a day on the water and it is a perfect sized boat to navigate the waters of St. John comfortably. Plenty of seating and storage for gear and access to some of the best snorkel spots that you can only get to by water. The electronic garmin charts give you all the info you need to navigate safely and identify all of the bays and cays. Can’t wait until next time!
