Fun guides, smooth ride - We had a wonderful time celebrating a family birthday with our guides John and Captain CJ. The two kept everything safe, fun, and professional. They were knowledgeable and approachable, and we really enjoyed our time with them. Hope we get a chance to go on another excursion with them again!

Great St. Thomas snorkel trip with Ocean Surfari - Our Captain CJ and snorkel guide John were great hosts. They took us to 2 snorkel spots, one was Hawks Nest Bay in the National Park and the other was Christmas Cove off Great St. James Island. John got in the water with us and helped us see lots of colorful fish, a green turtle and an octopus. Then we went back to dock to pick up pizza and Captain CJ found a great spot for us to enjoy our pizza and adult beverages while watching a beautiful sunset. They made the trip very fun and entertaining and we would definitely book with them again.

Fun Adventure - CJ & John were great! We were running late because we used the address provided on the trip advisor but that took us to the incorrect place. For the STT stop, it is right near the ferry to St. John. Other than that, we had an amazing time. We saw a couple turtles and lots of other fish.

Good for seeing critters - Captain CJ was very good about deciding the best spot without a lot of waves and obscurity. We saw turtles, reef squids, lizardfish, and a cow or a trunkfish. I thought we were getting fruit and beverages before and between snorkels. They had bags of chips and crackers. Have breakfast before you go. Excursions are about twenty minutes out, between, and back to the dock.
