5.00What a great day!! Tommy the captain and Kayla, his first mate, were delightful and so easy to plan our day trip with. They picked us up in the 40’ Beneteau promptly at 9 am. The boat was clean and well maintained. Tommy is knowledgeable and confident at the helm and made even the first time sailor feel right at home! We sailed to 3 blissful coves, Lovongo, Scott and Christmas where anchor was dropped and off we went snorkeling. All equipment was supplied. The locations were picture perfect and empty (due to being off season!) A lunch of grilled chicken, pasta salad and watermelon was provided and plenty of rum punch, painkillers and tequila. Tommy is a wealth of knowledge about the islands, their history, and fun facts. The 6 hr day flew by and we’d definitely book with Tommy and Virgin Island Day Sailing again!!
An amazing day on the water!

5.00Captain Tommy and Kayla did an amazing job of planning our adventure. We had three snorkeling stops intermixed with sailing and and a fantastic lunch of grilled chicken, veggie pasta, and watermelon. We were treated to rays and turtles during our snorkeling. The winds were perfect for sailing. It was a totally amazing adventure. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

5.00Captain Kendall made the experience AWESOME! He was captain,tour guide,chef,waiter and bartender! We were able to visit 2 spots to snorkel and saw turtles , stingrays, and lots of different fish! Pasta salad and chicken for lunch- yummy This sailing was the highlight of our trip to St Thomas! It was a private tour for just the 6 of us.

5.00We are a family of six that had a great time sailing and snorkeling with Captain Sam and Gabby. This was a day we will remember for a long time. The sailing and snorkeling were awesome. The boat was clean with plenty of space. The beaches were amazing. Snorkeling was fun and we saw turtles, stingrays, nurse sharks and different types of fish. Sam and Gabby were attentive, helpful and gave us information about the islands. Gabby gave us many tips regarding shopping and places to see on St. Johns. They truly were wonderful. The location of the boat was easy to find and communication was clear. Thank you Sam and Gabby. We would strongly recommend this tour.
Perfect day trip to celebrate a milestone birthday!

5.00We had an amazing day! Such kind people with great local information, history, and incites into the islands. We stopped in three beautiful snorkeling areas and I won’t ever forget the experience. Lunch was great and served on white linens! I was here with my sister and our mother to celebrate her 70th birthday, and this day trip was the perfect way to celebrate. Highly recommend!

5.00We’ve been on island over 20 years and I’ve taken many day excursions This was by far the best And it was especially great because we celebrated my grandsons 12th birthday Mark is a seasoned captain with extensive knowledge and humor about the trip. Rusty first mate is the closest thing to a fish. You’ll ever encounter The food was spectacular fresh grilled chicken pasta salad And the painkillers were the best The trip was only rival by the outstanding customer service and attention that was given Only six can go, which is even better Happy birthday, Liam
