5.00We were originally scheduled for the M/V Flyer 4 hour snorkling, but ended up on the Mazu instead—and it was a seamless transition. Captains Brent and Bryson were incredible hosts who went above and beyond to ensure we had a perfect day. We hit two fantastic snorkeling spots: Christmas Cove, where we swam with turtles, and the waters near Lovango, where we spotted a couple of nurse sharks! For those who didn't want to snorkel, they provided noodles for floating, which was a nice touch. The boat had plenty of space for our gear and a steady supply of fresh water. Highly recommend this crew for a great island experience!

5.00Hillary was a wonderful captain! Smooth sailing, took us to beautiful spots to see turtles and colorful fish. Had great tunes and cold drinks. Very professional company, they reached out prior to the trip with all information and waivers, gave her personal number in case we ran into any issue. If we ever make it back to St Thomas, Seas the Day will be our excursion company.
Incredible snorkeling experience with Captain Brodie!!

5.00⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible Snorkeling Experience with Captain Brodie! We had an amazing snorkeling trip with Captain Brodie to Lovango and Caneel Bay in St. John. From the moment we stepped on the boat, he was welcoming, professional, and made everyone feel completely comfortable. Before heading out, Brodie thoroughly covered all safety information and made sure we were confident and ready to snorkel. His knowledge of the area really showed — he took us to fantastic spots where we saw sea turtles and so many beautiful tropical fish. The water was crystal clear and the marine life was incredible. Captain Brodie struck the perfect balance of being friendly and fun while still running a safe, well-organized trip. We would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone visiting St. Thomas, USVI.
Overall ok

4.00Boat was a little dated Hard to find good snorkeling locations because of the wind that day
Fun, but reserve strength for swim back!

4.00Trip was good, Brody was very personable and read the group well. He was able to pivot when the weather changed and took us to see things the group was interested in. My only concern was that the boat can not get closer to pick swimmers up after snorkeling, or explain that it’s farther than it looks.
Good snorkeling!!

5.00Spent the morning with the Seas the Day and captain Brody. He was great; took us to 2 locations for snorkeling. We were able to see a lot of different fish, stingray and nurse shark! It was a great time!!
Great small group snorkeling adventure

5.00Great trip, Brodie(the only way to spell it) was a great captain, we finished a little early and he took us on an “historic” tour around the bay. Saw sharks, stingrays and lots of fish, no turtles but weather had been questionable for days. 100% recommend.
