"We had an amazing day! The captain did a great job with seeing some amazing fish over the reef also saw turtles and a very huge spotted eagle stingray. Would definitely charter this trip again."

"This was an awesome excursion. The Captain and first mate were friendly and well educated in the local history both recent and distant. I wish it could have been a full day rather than half. I would recommend this team and seas the day to anyone in St Thomas"

El esnorquel estuvo presente siempre y disfrutamos descubriendo la fauna marina y las aguas de mar más maravillosas por su color y transparencia. Lo que más nos llamó la atención…"

Most tours on GetYourGuide offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. Look for the cancellation policy on the GetYourGuide tour page before booking — it's flagged prominently on the offer card.
Private charter pricing is per-boat (typically 6–14 guests for the boat) rather than per-head. The break-even vs. shared tickets is usually around 6 guests — above that, private wins on per-head cost AND lets you set the route, music, and swim stops.
December – April (dry season, steady trade winds). Shoulder months (may, june, november (shoulder bargains)) are the best-value window — smaller crowds, lower prices, mostly the same conditions. Avoid september – october (hurricane window).
