After snorkeling, swimming and enjoying the sun for a while we head to a second stop where you will be able to swim with more amazing sea life and comb the white sandy beaches of some of the most incredible shoreline on the planet.

5.00My family and I had an unforgettable day with Morningstar Sailing and Power Charters in St. John, US Virgin Islands! From start to finish, Captain Mike made our adventure truly special. His expertise as a boat captain and tour guide shone through, blending seamless navigation with fascinating insights into the island’s history that captivated us all. We loved every moment—snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, boating through stunning bays, and swimming alongside sea turtles, which was a magical highlight for the kids and adults alike. Mike’s warm, engaging style and deep knowledge of the area made each stop feel like a personal discovery. He ensured everyone felt safe, comfortable, and included, tailoring the experience to our family’s interests. Morningstar’s boat was pristine, and the itinerary was perfectly paced, giving us ample time to soak in the beauty of St. John. Mike’s passion for the island and his knack for storytelling brought the experience to life. We can’t recommend Morningstar and Captain Mike highly enough—book this charter for a day of adventure, relaxation, and memories that will last a lifetime!
Excellent last minute trip

5.00Excellent last minute trip to cap off a fabulous week on St.John. We had done a BVI trip earlier in the week and wanted to try a private trip with just our family. Mike and crew were so accommodating to our requests. We had a really fun day hitting some different spots with amazing snorkeling. Would book this trip again in a heartbeat. Very professional and highly recommend.
Do this charter if you can!!!!

5.00Captain Mike was great. A very approachable and informative guide. Everyone that wanted to got a chance to say they have sailed a boat on the Caribbean seas. He also is a great bartender. Don’t miss out on the vanilla killa and lime in a coconut!! Amazing snorkeling in Caneel Bay!! Just a great day!!
Great day sailing in St John

5.00We spent the day on Morning star sailboat going to two different snorkeling places with our 3 kids (8,11,14). The captain was a great host and very kind. He taught each of our children how to sail the boat. The catered food from the deli was a hit and the drinks on board were delicious. We’ll be coming back 😊
Great charter- best day! Would highly recommend!

5.00We had such a great experience with Captain Mike and crew. We are a family of 4 with two younger kids (5,8) and they couldn’t have been nicer with us. My kids wanted to swim with turtles so they took us to a great spot - we made a few stops along the way to get the most out of our charter and it was one of our favorite days on St. John. They were super friendly and knowledgeable - I would highly recommend and go back.
Best Sailing Trip Ever!!

5.00One of our best sailing trips ever. Captain Mike is not just an experienced, safe boat captain but such a wonderful guy... our group had a fabulous day on the ocean- he tailors the trip to what you want to do- snorkel, cruise, whatever. We will definitely come back to St John and repeat this sailing experience.
Amazing sailing excursion!!

5.00Mike was the BEST captain. He is very knowledgeable about the island and knows all the best snorkel spots! He was very accommodating and made sure our comfort and safety came first! Will definitely do a tour with Morningstar charters when we come back. Definitely suggest this trip for anyone who loves to be on the water!
The snorkling was great,...

5.00The snorkling was great, but what really made this trip memorable was the sailing with captain Mike. My sons love to sail, and had a great time doing so.
Memorable day with Capt. Mike

5.00What a great day we had with Capt. Mike! Not only is he an excellent sailor he is a wonderful host. We were a party of 2 couples and had all been to STJ before. After making sure we were familiar with the boat and offering drinks & snacks he set out. As others have mentioned, Mike is a very good conversationalist so we immediately felt comfortable and relaxed. The weather that day was overcast & windy and the sailing was terrific. We stopped at Mary Point for some snorkeling and then returned to the boat for lunch, sandwiches from North Shore deli - a favorite of ours prior to this trip. They tasted delicious as we sat out a rain squall inside the boat. The rain soon cleared up and we headed over to Francis Bay where we snorkeled again this time with some sea turtles. The day was a highlight of what was a wonderful week on our favorite island. Oh, if you go (and you should) make sure to try Mike's signature painkiller, it will make you forget all your cares.
Amazing day sail
