Silver Coral was wonderful, great and super comfortable layout. Privateer Bay, The Indians, Pirates Bight and lastly JVD/White Bay. Couldn’t have asked for a better trip. Best day ever,

Fun boat charter with Catzilla and Love City Excursions - Went out with Catzilla and captain Abbie on a wonderful full day bvi trip. The boat was very spacious for the 4 of us and in tip top shape. Abbie was an excellent captain, the perfect combination of fun and skill. The seas were rough that day but Abbie Was able to find us an excellent snorkel spot that was perfect for the conditions that day. Dealing with Katie the owner of Catzilla was enjoyable and easy. We’re frequent visitors to STJ and will be choosing Catzilla for our next boat charter.

BEST Day of your Vacay!!! - 10/10 recommend booking your next boat day with Love City Excursions!!! It was hands down the best day of our trip. Katie was super helpful when booking our trip. She took the time to explain everything and listened to what our group wanted to do so we could plan the perfect day-- a combination of snorkeling, bar and beach hopping. Captain Luke was fantastic with our family. He's very professional, fun, and knowledgeable of the islands. If you have your passports, it's worth booking the day trip to check out the BVI. Thanks for a great day, CatZilla & crew!!

Best Day on the Water - I would recommend to anyone that wants to see the Virgin Islands from the water. Great opportunity to east at Pizza Pi VI or Lime Out - both great fun, water access only restaurants. Abbie was our Captain - FABULOUS. A definite day I would repeat.

Wonderful day on the boat! - Katie,who arranged the trip, was very nice as was Capt Luke who gave good info and took us to some beautiful areas, coves and beaches. We enjoyed snorkeling and had lunch on a restaurant in the water. We were two couples and enjoyed the day. This was our third day trip with Love City Excursions and we will be back!

Another wonderful experience with Love City Excursions - This is our fifth time renting with Love City Excursions and we can’t say enough great things about them! Luke was our captain and we had a wonderful day at Lime Out, snorkeling at several spots around St. John and ending our day at Pizza Pi! We had an extra special treat when snorkeling in Christmas Cove by seeing a Spotted Eagle Ray! Luke was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed getting to know him! If you are looking for a wonderful time on the water, check out Love City Excursions!

St. John Charter - Always the highlight of our trip. This year, we had another great experience. These guys are pros, their boat is very stable on the choppy seas and we could not have had a more enjoyable experience. We have booked several different charter companies and come back to Love City Excursions due to their high quality service and professionalism.

Full day with Captain Ben - Excellent day on the water for a group of 9. We were picked up at the Westin beach since that is where we are staying. We did the full day 9:30 - 3:30 charter on Catzilla. Our Captain was Ben. We did a trip all the way around the island, going counter-clockwise. Captain Ben knows his spots to drop you off for snorkeling. Our first stop was at Salt Pond Bay. He did get us to Lime Out around noon, knowing that would be when the early birds there would be finishing, so we were able to snag a float right away as people were finishing their meal. Great food and drink at Lime Out, don't miss that. We then did mor snorkeling at Round Bay, plenty of fish to see there. We then loaded back up and rounded the island to Newfound Bay. This bay is protected by a reef but there is a break in it where the boat could get in. We then snorkeled back through the reef break to snorkel the outside of the reed. Wow! Excellent snorkeling there, like an aquarium. Captain Ben kept us informed as we moved along. He pointed out ruins and their historical significance. We continued on to Hawksnest Bay where my son proposed to his girlfriend. It was awesome. Many pictures taken there as you can imagine. We did proceed on to Scott Beach near the old Caneel Hotel grounds. Very nice beach there. Highly recommend this trip and Captain Ben.

Best day of our trip - We could not be more happy with our day on Love City Excursion! Captain Ben was wonderful. Very knowledgeable about the USVI. He took us to all the best snorkeling spots that you could not reach by Jeep around St. John. Went to lunch at Lime Out and had a blast. Seriously good tacos and strong drinks. Having a great captain really makes a difference. Thank you Ben for making it so fun for my family. Another added bonus is they give you all you can drink painkiller drinks which were very yummy. Will not hesitate to book with love city excursions next time we come.
