Little Buck Island

Your crew will share stories about the history and geography of the area while you cruise to your first stop, Buck Island, with two unique snorkeling sites. See the Cartanza wreck in Shipwreck Cove and snorkel the rock line with your friendly and knowledgeable guide to see parrotfish, damselfish, yellowtail snapper, grouper, and eels. On the other side of the island is Turtle Cove, a favorite hangout for -- you guessed it! -- Green sea turtles who enjoy grazing on the sea grass beds. Pool noodles and snorkel vests available for your comfort. In between, enjoy water, soft drinks, and snacks on the boat.

Secret Harbour

Usually a good destination for a lunch break possibility. We get our boat as close to shore as possible but customers will need to swim/float to the beach and enjoy a lunch at the restaurant there if they like. Other possibilities for lunch could be other beach side restaurants or lunch at Pizza Pi, world famous floating restaurant. Pizzas cooked on board their boat and delivered by dinghy to ours. (Flexible, discuss other lunch options/restaurants with captain).

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Private Full Day Guided Snorkeling or Diving Charter in St Thomas?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Top10Adventures® over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
