Amazing time with friends!! - The golden hours tour with captain nick was the highlight of our trip! We went to two snorkel spots and saw tons of fish and starfish. We were even able to snag a last minute pizza from the pizza pi boat!! Would definitely be using island root charters and captain nick on our next trip!

Amazing Sunset Crusie. - Captain Jason was great! Booking was easy, meeting him on the day of the trip was easy. He made the trip fun for everyone! Great snorkel, good pizza and an amazing sunset! Boat was clean and very comfortable. Could not have been better.

Golden Hours Sunset cruise - We booked our the Golden Hours sunset cruise for the first full day of our visit to StJohn. It was a great way to see the island and get our bearings for the week ahead. Captain Ryan was a terrific guide and provided a lot of knowledge and insight about STJ like only a local can. Pizzapi was delicious and the owners are wonderful people. Enjoyed eating our slice of pizza while watching the breathtaking sunset. A great start to our week in paradise!

Best part of our family vacation! - Had a great time with our family! Would highly recommend booking them. We will definitely book another trip when we are back! Thanks again my family had a wonderful time.

Book the Sunset Cruise with Captain Ryan! - Our family of seven's private Sunset Cruise with Captain Ryan Granger was a highlight of our recent trip to St. John. The boat is clean and comfortable, and Ryan had everything on hand (snorkel gear, iced down waters, a nice speaker system to play our music, even a book on reef fish for our snorkeling enthusiasts) to make for a wonderful evening. Ryan tailored the outing to our tastes, bringing us to two great snorkeling spots (including one where we spotted our first sea turtle!) and a deserted island with two options for cliff jumping for my 25-year-old son (who caught the bug after jumping at Cleetwood Cove in Crater Lake NP last year). He pointed out wild goats on another deserted island as well as other points of interest, such as the abandoned Caneel Bay Resort and Lovango. As a long-time resident, Ryan was knowledgeable about life on St. John and a friendly conversationalist. He texted early the morning of our excursion asking about our dinner preferences so he could place an order with Pizza Pi early in the day. We met up with that boat around 5:45 and enjoyed a great pizza dinner on the water. We spent the last 30 minutes or so of our time cruising through the Caribbean with fantastic sunset views. We would do this again, and if we'd had more time we would've done a full day tour with Island Roots as well. Highly recommend!

One of the best charter experiences ever! - Been to several islands and done several charters, including others in St. John but our trip this time with Island Roots was one of the best experiences we’ve had on the water. We did a half day snorkel/sunset that actually picked us up in St Thomas since we were going to ferry over to St John anyways. Captain Jason called us before hand and was super accommodating with the logistics. Captain Ryan was right on time and made us and our teenage daughters feel like VIPs. The boat was fairly new and in excellent condition. Captain Ryan took us to an amazing snorkel spot we had to ourselves and was very informative about the area and the marine life. He then took us to Pizza Pi and timed the sunset perfectly. Truly the highlight of our trip. Can’t wait to book again with Jason and Ryan and Island Roots.

Absolute perfection - Nothing short of AMAZING. ABSOLUTELY PERFECT for our girls trip. Guide w have been better. Will book again for sure.

Golden Hours the Best - What a great time on the ocean with our captain Jason. We opted for the golden hours cruise, the craft was spotless, our little guy loved his first experience on a boat, we snorkeled, had pizza at Pizza Pi while on our cruise which was very cool and then anchored for a spectacular sunset. A terrific time, just enough time that fit into our day and wonderful customer service. Highly recommend.

Don’t think twice about booking with Island Roots! - This was our second time doing a Golden Hours tour with Island Roots Charters. I can not recommend them enough. Captain Ryan is a super nice down to earth guy. He was very knowledgeable about places to snorkel and what you may see at those locations. We stopped by several snorkeling locations and also took the opportunity to stop for pizza at Pizza Pi VI and the pizza was so good. Definitely recommend adding this if you can. There where plenty of pool noodles available if needed, water and snorkel gear (we had our own so didn’t need to use). He took a sunset group pic of our family so that we could all be in the photo and somehow managed to remember our names. This is a great way to see spots on Island that you otherwise may not. Thanks so much Island Roots Charters

Sunset sail of our dreams! - For our second year in a row visiting St. John, we booked two trips with Captain Max and Island Roots (one at sunset, and one all day). Max was attentive to all our wishes - snorkeling, visiting secluded beaches, playing great tunes and hitting up both Lime Out and Pizza Pi. The boat was also spacious, super comfortable and very clean. Highly recommend Island Roots for a day on the water that is well worth every penny. Thank you and we will be back!
