Great tour with kids - Paul was an amazing guide, helping us find different sea creatures and telling us interesting facts. He had equipment that fit everyone. He was incredibly good with the kids. My 5 and 9 year old absolutely loved him and felt very safe and excited. We walked in right off the beach (very easy for the kids). We saw plenty of turtles and fish. We got to meet a starfish up close and he helped us find a hiding octopus.

Yes, You Will See Turtles 🐢 - This was my first time booking through Viator and I was honestly a little hesitant, but this ended up being one of the best parts of our trip. The biggest difference is that this is an experience-focused tour, not a volume/throughput excursion. We were about 20 minutes away from the cruise port to a quieter area (Brewer’s Bay), and it made a huge difference in what we were able to see. Our guide was fantastic — She didn’t just drop us in the water and hope for the best. She actively found wildlife for us, dove down to point things out, and gave clear instructions (especially to the kids) on how to respectfully interact with the animals. We saw multiple sea turtles (including one with a remora), a manta ray, a sea urchin, fish, and a queen conch. It felt like a curated experience, not random luck. They also provided proper gear (life jackets, etc.), which made it accessible and comfortable. If you’re deciding between a large cruise excursion vs. something like this, I would 100% recommend going with a smaller, local operator. The difference in quality and care is very noticeable. Would absolutely book again.

Majestic with many sea turtles! Guide is amazing!!! - My guide was absolutely amazing and so nice! We saw multiple stingrays (big), cow fish , MULTIPLE big sea turtles , sea urchins, beautiful orange starfish , a huge conch shells !!you don’t have to worry about extensive swimming you were a floating vest to help you relax and just enjoy the view down. You don’t have to worry about the stingrays they stay low to the ocean floor grazing it! The sea turtles were adorable and i was surprised how many we saw ! It was majestic beautiful and everything i hoped for and more! Thank you !!

Adventure and informative fun combination. Highly recommend. - The guide is a very knowledgeable marine biologist young woman who is keen to share her knowledge of all sea life we saw today. Friendly and safety conscious.

Know what you’re buying… - The trip is just beach snorkeling with a guide for 1:30 hours. I guess I just assumed it was on a boat! Guide was very knowledgeable as she was a recent grad of UVI and local. It was a nice trip but d.

Disappointing - Save yourself the money… It’s a free public beach, just bring your own snorkeling equipment ($20 on Amazon) and get in the water … there’s no secret passage to the sea turtles, no secluded area for paying customers I paid $237.00 for my family of 3 swam amongst people who paid $0 and seen the same as them (one turtle) and (one sting ray). Tho I must admit the water was clear and refreshing.
