Snorkeling & beaches & tacos & music & good vibes - Our captain Andrew was great! Took us to great snorkeling spots, and really lovely beaches. He was really great at driving (obviously) but it was just nice he made sure we were all comfortable & he he went slow for us to just be chill. Great company to book if you want to customize what you do - he’ll listen & take you wherever. You get to control the music and they have all the gear you’ll need. Bring towels though. It’s byob which I appreciate bc you can have whatever you want then.

A Plus for Caption Andrew! - I had that pleasure of spending a full day with Captain Andrew on a boat trip from St. Thomas to St. John. He was so knowledgeable and shared a lot of interesting history around St. John, St. Thomas, Epstein Island, and the other local islands. Captain Andrew had two coolers packed with ice for us - one with extra water bottles we could drink and one available for us to use to keep our waters and food cool. He had snorkeling equipment on board so we didn’t have to rent them as well as various floating devices. While snorkeling at two different locations, we saw lots of colorful fish, sea turtles, a barracuda, a starfish, and my aunt even saw an octopus! Overall, Captain Andrew provided an absolutely amazing experience and a treasured memory I will never forget!

Captain Andrew is the BEST! - Captain Andrew gave us the best day ever. He blew me away with his knowledge of the islands and the perfect spots to snorkel. We found sting rays, sea turtles, octopus, and the most beautiful fish. Our captain provided everything we needed and more to make our day absolutely perfect. Thank you for such a memorable, fun adventure!

Full Day snorkeling trip - We had an awesome time on our full day charter around STT. (We had previously visited snorkeling spots around STJ and gone to Lime Out, so on this trip we stuck with STT snorkeling.) We had a blast! Captain Andrew was awesome and took us to wonderful snorkeling areas. We saw beautiful fish, sea turtles, sting rays and a shipwreck. My three boys (ages 9,13&15) loved it. Andrew allowed them to jump off the boat and that was also a highlight for them. We had lunch at Dinghy’s Beach Bar on Water Island. We had an incredible day. Highly recommend!

Full Day snorkeling around St. Johns - Andrew was a great captain for the day. He took us to 5 different snorkeling spots all around St. Johns with a great lunch at Lime out. He was super nice and accommodating from start to finish. We look forward to our next excursion with Andrew on Bonus Time boat.

Amazing Day with Friends and Family! - We booked a full day charter around St John. Our captain for the day was Andrew - he gave us the best possible experience! We snorkeled at some amazing, hidden gem locations before stopping for lunch at Lime Out. Afterwards, we stopped once more at a really cool cove with great freediving. Andrew knew his stuff, he was funny and made us all feel comfortable so we could make the most of the day! Highly recommend Bonus Time and Captain Andrew!

A beautiful day on the water - We embarked from Red Hook, St Thomas. Captain Andrew guided us to some amazing snorkeling locations in St John. As we circumnavigated St John, he provided interesting information about the island and sights we observed along the way. He planned our trip and activities perfectly, so he could get us to our lunch spot, Lime Out, for some tacos. It was an amazing day, and I hope to go out again.

Amazing boat day trip!! - Another amazing day boating around St. John! This is our 3rd trip with Captain Andrew. We've gone with friends and family, and we all love him because he is so knowledgeable, kind and welcoming. The boat is a good size -- not too big or too small -- and the ride between destinations is always smooth and enjoyable. Andrew is a local so he knows of all the awesome snorkel spots and we always have such an amazing experience with him. We've seen a nurse shark, an eel, sea turtles, beautiful fish, healthy coral, sand dollars and massive conchs. We usually grab lunch at LimeOut which is a favorite or Pizza Pi which is delicious, too. Couldn't recommend Captain Andrew with Bonus Time enough!
