3x Private & Semi Private Rentals—Snorkeling Adventures - Third time with Seas the Day and all three trips were wonderful. Our captains not only safely drove us to great snorkeling spots on very comfortable and up-to-date vessels, they kept a watchful eye on us as well as enlightening us on the islands’ history, politics and aquatic life. Money well spent!

So happy with our experience!! - Hillary was a phenomenal guide and we thoroughly enjoyed our day with her! There were only 8 guests on the boat and plenty of room to move around and enjoy the ride to water and buck island. Saw tons of turtles and beautiful reefs at both stops! Food at dinghy bar at honeymoon beach was delicious . My teens loved the whole tripand they are hard to please! Thank you Hillary!

Great Snorkling at Honeymoon Beach - Wonderful day with Dave snorkeling at Honeymoon Beach. It was windy and waters were a little choppy so Dave took us directly to Honeymoon Beach where it was much calmer and we were able to snorkel off the boat. We saw turtles (one actually swam right up past me and surfaced!) as well as fish. While we didn't go onto the beach itself, it looked nice and there was a small restaurant/bar. Dave was a great guide in that he was knowledgeable about St Thomas, had fun facts and trivia to share, and pivoted to make our afternoon of snorkeling as enjoyable as possible. We also felt like Dave connected to everyone on the trip; it felt like he enjoyed talking to people and liked what he was doing. I bring this up because we have been on tours where it felt like the folks with kids, or the best looking woman, or the person who looked like the biggest tipper got all the guides attention, or other times when it felt like they were just going through the motions. We also enjoyed having a small group (8 adults) as opposed to some of the huge groups we saw going out. A HUGE plus and as noted above, made it easier for Dave to talk to each of us.

Fun family snorkel trip - Our captains (Main Captain & Rusty) were both great! Very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We saw a ton of fish at Bunk Island and several turtles at Honeymoon Beach. I took a star off because of the boat - it had definitely seen better days - although lots of fish enjoyed eating the moss off the bottom. We did the exact same route as a more expensive tour.

Family Event - This would have been great, but the water was a little rough and it made the snorkeling hard. My advice would be to try and check the weather or make sure the boat captain can find calmer water. We didn't see as much sea life as we have in the past but it was still a good trip. Our guide got some great videos of us in the water which we appreciated.
