  Captain Dave is the best! We had such a great time on the water with him. 5 stars for the bearded captain! We did the local charter, and he took us to all the best spots.

• Best Decision We Made in St. Thomas (Sorry, Cruise Excursions)

  Last week our family went on a cruise that stopped in St. Thomas, and we booked a private charter with Stormy Pirates after a recommendation from a captain we had used on a previous trip. They operate a beautiful 37’ Axopar, and the experience exceeded every expectation. From the start, communication was fast, clear, and professional. They laid out all the details ahead of time and made sure we had everything we needed, which made the day completely stress-free. Our crew—Captain Dave and first mate Kevin—were outstanding. They were funny, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful throughout the day. Captain Dave even had a great playlist going, which added to the relaxed vibe. We went snorkeling and saw amazing sea life, including turtles, and they had snorkeling gear and noodles for our entire family of nine. Beyond the snorkeling, we learned a lot about the history and geography of St. John and St. Thomas, thanks to the stories and insights they shared along the way. The water got a little choppy on the return trip, but Captain Dave handled it with total confidence and skill. They provided beer, soda, and a great rum punch, and we even made a stop at Pizza Pi, which was a fun bonus. Every detail—from their recommended transportation to payment—was handled smoothly and professionally. I would absolutely recommend Stormy Pirates to anyone looking for a high-quality alternative to cruise ship excursions. While the price may seem a bit higher at first, it is truly a great value for a private, personalized, and memorable experience. We would book with them again without hesitation.

  My wife and I booked a private charter. All was excellent and our captain Brandon was terrific. He set up a great music mix and attended to all our needs. Management booked the charter very easily. Very good company to work with.

  We booked 2 excursions with Stormy Pirates. The first day we had a private charter to Baths and Norman Island. Captain John and Liz took great care of us! We never had an empty cup or stomach on the trip! Baths were gorgeous and snorkeling stops were amazing. We also booked a catamaran sail to Jost to visit Foxy's, Soggy Dollar etc. Pace was nice and slow and relaxing. Captain Kenny and Susannah took care of us! Great drinks and company the entire day. My husband left something on the boat and we noticed the next day. Kenny texted to ask if we had left it behind and we were able to arrange to get the item returned to us. Customer service beyond expectation. We loved both charters so much. Very nice to relax and enjoy the islands. They take of everything from drinks and snack to the customs process. Highly recommend any of the tours!

• Captain David

  Holy mackerel, this boat was a floating palace—comfy enough to nap through a hurricane! Captain David? The man’s a musical genius, dropping bangers that had us dancing like nobody’s watching. The Baths at Virgin Gorda? Straight-up magical, like stumbling into a pirate’s postcard. And the Willy T? Let’s just say we partied so hard I’m still finding glitter in my shoes. Book this trip unless you hate fun!

• Best experience, well worth it

  We took a private charter to the BVI with Stormy Pirates. Suzanne and Kenny were are captains. And we couldn’t have asked for a better couple to spend the day with us! They took us to private beaches and to the best spots to snorkel. Suzanne even got in the water to point out a stingray for us. Service was amazing as well on the boat. They never left us with an empty cup! I highly recommend using Stormy Pirates for your next charter and ask for Suzanne and Kenny!

  Captain David was an excellent captain! He was very knowledgable & shared a lot of stories about the islands. We visited multiple snorkel spots & enjoyed them all. I will definitely hire David again next year when we return for our annual trip to St. Thomas!
