Additional Information

This unique journey to Jost Van Dyke offers travelers the longest island stay compared to other group travels.

The adventure begins at the Ritz-Carlton in St. Thomas, where guests embark on our 55′ catamaran for an exceptional day. A light continental breakfast is offered as we sail along the North Shore of St. John, taking a moment to snorkel amidst the coral reefs off the island’s perimeter. After snorkeling, we proceed to Great Harbor for customs clearance.

Once we’ve cleared customs, we advance to White Bay, a few short minutes away and the location of the renowned Soggy Dollar Bar and one of the world’s finest beaches!

For guests 18 and over, the “Painkiller” cocktail, a global favorite, is a must-try, while others can engage in the Ring Toss game, unwind in a hammock, or swim and snorkel in the blue-green waters. Subsequently, for those 18 and above, happy hour is available on board as we head back to St. Thomas, enjoying an open bar after clearing US Customs in Cruz Bay.

Great day on the boat! - This was a great excursion! The crew was amazing and the boat was super fun. They took us to a wonderful snorkeling spot and we saw lots of fish and corral. We loved our afternoon at Soggy Dollar Bar!

Wonderful Crew and Experience aboard the DayDreamer from Ritz to Jost Van Dyke - The very best crew makes the very best experience. Joleen, our captain, Lindsay and Nichole, the creww and Sally the new hire in training were all exceptional. Good humored, attentive, accommodating yet keeping a strong safety protocol and schedule. And the ship was absolutely immaculate. Drinks really good. What more could you want? Amazing.

Incredible! - Awesome trip! Worth every soggy dollar! Jolene, Bryan and Nicole were very professional and made the trip fun. White Bay may be the most beautiful spot in the Caribbean and that’s saying a lot. Would 100% book this again.

Worth every penny - Immaculate catamaran operated by a wonderful, exceedingly competent, and friendly crew under Captain Joleen. Snorkel stop was beautiful (sea turtles, rays!) and crew provided cool/useful notes and tips for our stops.

Not happening - Booked several vViator tours and none of them happened. The last one changed our location the day before. Cost us an inconvenience and an extra $40 in taxi fare.

Canceled without prior notice - Trip was canceled by the operator, no prior notice. No one answers calls. Very unprofessional. Wasted a day, I would book other excursions, if I knew ahead of time. Instead we are trying to figure out what to do, all of the similar trips leave early, we can't book anything else. Kid is upset. Dragged her out of bed, and she does not get to go, very upset. The weather is pretty, I don't understand why they just cancle us.
