Catamaran Cruise Control

Three staff, Brody, Collette and Cody. Upmost respect, professionalism, safety, genuine personal touch and enthusiasm and energy. This is probably the best tour ever experienced on a Catamaran (we have been on several). Collette, thank you so much for the informative guided snorkel tour (yes, she was in the water too), Brody, for being the lead informer (with humour and sensibility), Cody for all the equipment (right sizing too and no issues for changes..as well as generous liquid refreshments...before I wrote this!). If you're going on any tour in St Thomas, we saw turtles, baracudda, as well as fish schools. Note, there is no pressure to get in the water, my parents stayed on board and saw plenty of fish whist staying dry. Highly recommend!

This was, hands down, the best snorkeling experience we’ve had. We’ve been on several ships with different cruise lines. Capt. Ashley, Rose and Jesse we absolutely awesome and entertaining. The crew was great with helping with the snorkeling. We absolutely recommend this excursion.
