Wonderful time with a small group - We had a wonderful experience! The guide was kind and patient with my children as they tried to figure out snorkeling. He also taught us so much about everything. The beach was beautiful and not too crowded. Beautiful island and we loved seeing the turtles!

Personalized service and great snorkeling for turtles and rays. - This was the perfect tour for a small group of snorklers with varied expreience in the water. Snorkeling from the beach in the shallower clear waters allowed all of us to feel confident Sven from St Thomas Adventure Tours was a great guide and adjusted the snorkeling to fit each person. Three of us stayed in the water with Sven for over an hour. We saw so many turtles and rays. Much of the area is sand and sea grass - the perfect environment for the turtles, stingrays and flounder. Another part of the bay had a small coral reef where we saw many types of fish along with an octopus and some squid. Even our least experienced snorkeler was able to enjoy herself and see a lot of marine life. Then she opted to enjoy the shady quiet beach in the chairs Sven brought with him. Emerald Resort meeting place was a short cab ride from the cruise port - about 7 minutes. There are a lot of taxis avaialbe going to and from the resort. We loved the personalized attention and the eco inspired walk and swim. Five stars! Would definitely do this again! Also a nice idea for those who might get a little queasy on the catamarans.

Close up and personal with beautiful sea turtles and tropical fish - Watching the sea turtles. Our guide, Conner, was very informative and friendly. He gave us a little history of St Thomas and some facts on the turtles. Conner's pics and video was great. So happy we purchased them.

Best turtle snorkel trip - Best snorkel trip we've ever done! Conner our guide was excellent. He took us to a gorgeous beach without all of the tourists and as soon as we got in the water we saw so much sea life and turtles! We have 4 kids and two adults and no complaints the entire time. We all enjoyed how knowledgeable Conner was in showing us everything in the sea. Highly recommend!!

Brewers Bay doesn't disappoint - It's a 10min truck drive to Brewers Bay, that's where you'll be snorkeling. Me & the other people thought we were going to be heading to a boat and taken out snorkeling. Nonetheless we saw all turtles, fishes & sting rays there.
The tour guides were very knowledgeable. You can honestly just drive or catch a taxi to Brewers Bay w/ your own snorkeling gear to view the marina life.
