Worth it! - Great staff and great experience! 10/10 would do it again. Views were beautiful and activities were a blast! Snacks, drinks and pizza served onboard after activities & sunset dance party to end the night… not as cheesy as it sounds! Do it!!!

Wonderful afternoon on the water. - Another excellent trip! This was our second time and we will probably go again next year! Great way to see more of the island. The snorkeling was the reason for us to book but we enjoyed the whole trip!

Great snorkel and boat ride around St.James islands - We had a great time snorkeling and boating around the St James islands. Justin had mad skills with the boat and both he and Dallas were attentive and helpful for everyone. Saw turtles and rays and a sunken boat. It was cool to get pizza delivered to the boat even if the pizza could have been a little better tasting

St James snorkel and pizza - Amazing tour pizza was amazing lots of fish and a huge sunken boat. The crew (Justin and Dallas) were so nice and there are lots of very good snacks. There are many drinks to have after the snorkel.

Definitely worth it but don’t count on great pizza - The snorkeling was exceptional, and the boat was well equipped, and the staff was awesome. It’s only got four stars because the pizza was terrible.
