So Good We Booked Another Day With Them - We had two awesome days with Kevin and Kyle. We originally were only going to do the USVI boat day (we are staying in St Thomas) to give the kids a chance to snorkel and check out Pizza Pi and Limeout. These guys were so good, catering to what we wanted to do, suggesting spots so that everyone in the family could do the things they wanted to do, that we added a second day and did the BVI tour with Carpe Diem. It was fantastic, our favorite day of the vacation. We hit the Baths in Virgin Gorda, had lunch on Norman Island, snorkeled the Indians, beach time in Jost, and even had time to hit Christmas Cove on the way back. I highly recommend this tour and know that we will be doing it again the next time we are in the USVI.

Great tour of the BVI's on Carpe Diem - Recently had a 5-star experience thanks to Captain Kevin on board Carpe Diem. He picked us up on St John for a full day excursion of the BVI's. We explored JVD - Foxy's and White Bay, snorkeled a few Caves and ended with a jump off Willy T's. The boat was clean, stereo was loud and handled the windy chop we had that day! Captain Kevin accommodated all our requests, even picking us up and dropping us off at the Westin. I would absolutely recommend Kevin and Carpe Diem to anyone looking to enjoy an epic day in the Virgin Islands! The Cocktail Cove Crew can't wait for the next adventure!

The Best Charter Trips! - Our family had an incredible time experiencing the Caribbean islands with Kevin as our Captain. It was our second trip to St. Thomas, but the first for our adult children. Kevin put together very fun days with some of our previously-visited spots, in addition to great new places! We enjoyed snorkeling and beach visits each day, lunch at Saba Rock and Pirate’s Bite, and fun cocktails at Willie T’s and Soggy Dollar (home of the original Painkiller). Kevin has so much to share about this beautiful part of the world, and we’ll definitely be back on another charter with Carpe Diem! 🏝️🍹🌊🐠🤿

Best charter in the Caribbean! - Our group of 9 spent three days with our captain, Kevin, on the Carpe Diem boat. The boat was spacious, clean, safe, and very comfortable - a highlight for us were the popup seats at the bow! We could bring any snacks and drinks we wanted, and Kevin had the cooler stocked with ice each day we were out on the water. Our day trips were incredible experiences all around - Kevin was the best guide and captain we could’ve asked for. He was so knowledgeable about all of the islands, wildlife, best beaches, restaurants, bars, and pristine snorkeling locations. Additionally, he knows the ins and outs of customs, which really took the pressure off of our group. The three days we spent with him were truly the highlight of our time on vacation in the Caribbean - it feels like he’s a part of our family now. We’re so grateful to have met Kevin and seen the USVI and BVI the way we did. We’ll be back and will definitely use Carpe Diem! Thank you Kevin and Chris!

Carpe Diem is a must charter - We had a wonderful day In the British Virgin Islands with Carpe Diem Charters. Our captain Kevin was extraordinary and definitely had some good suggestions on where to go. He knows the waters well and we were in good hands the entire day. We definitely had one of the better day charter boats because of the ample seating on board We started at Norman Island with some beautiful snorkeling. Kevin was a bit concerned about the current at one location so we moved a bit and it was ideal! Went to Willie T for lunch and then headed to Jost Van Dyke to finish up the day at Soggy Dollar. Personally, I would recommend going to the Willie T for a drink and not lunch. I think the food at Soggy Dollar and Hendo’s hideout on Jost is much better. But Willie T is a must visit as it is iconic. I would 100% recommend Carpe Diem and Kevin! When I am back for other visit I will see them again!

Best day on BVI! - Kevin was absolutely amazing! We had the best day on the boat with him traveling to multiple islands. We'd book him a hundred times over!

Incredible time in the BVIs with Captain Kevin aboard Carpe Diem! - We had an incredible time in the BVIs with Captain Kevin. His captaining skills were impressive from the moment he picked us up on the beach right outside our hotel, to difficult docking at customs, to finding the best spot at the Caves at Norman Island for snorkeling. He listened to what our group of 4 wanted to do and had some great recommendations on places to go and the best time to go. We’ve been to the BVIs before by boat and we got to do things this trip we’ve never experienced like Sandy Spit, Pirate’s Bight beach bar on Norman Island (snorkeled with turtles off the beach), and Ivan’s Stress Free Bar on JVD that was reminiscent of the old Soggy Dollar Bar days. We’ve explored the BVIs via both private boat and group trip. It’s 100% worth the extra cost to do the private trip. The boat was nice and had a lot of shade and seating. It’s similar to a center console, but a greatly expanded cover over the back of the boat. Would highly recommend!!

Best day in BVI - Fantastic day with Captain Darin. We planned the day together and went to the popular spots with food and drinks and also went to private beaches. The boat had snorkeling gear and we had lots of fun interactions with Darin.

Seize the day with Carpe Diem - Awesome boat, awesome day. Probably the best value boat in the USVI. Awesome layout, and perfect for our group of 11, including adults, teens, and kids. Easy pick up at St. John, over to Jost to hang at Foxy’s while waiting captain to clear customs for us. We told the Captain our idea of the day, and he recommended we snorkel at the Indians, lunch at Pirates Bite, quick stop at Willy T’s, swim at Sandy Spit, then ended the day with painkillers at Soggy Dollar Bar. Full day that was everything we wanted.
