4.00Captain Chris took us on a customized cruise to the BVI. We started in St. John and headed to The Baths on Little Virgin Gorda. The Bath has great potential , unfortunately we arrived at the same time as several tour groups so the wait line to get to the main bath was almost an hour which was nobody’s fault. The area surrounding The Bath is spectacular. Next we snorkeled the Indians which was a lovely site. Next we made our way to Beeline for a quick bite and a few drinks. Headed back to St. John after a stop at customs. The entire cruise was 7 hours. The boat was comfortable and Chris is very knowledgeable and informative on all things boating the Virgin Islands.
Perfect Excursion in St Thomas!

5.00Captain Chris gave us a perfect day which included snorkeling in Christmas Cove , early lunch visit to Lime Out, swim at Stunning Honeymoon Beach and a swim at deserted Scott’s Cove and a quick stop at Pizza Pi. The beaches were stunning with softest sand and the bluest water. Chris was an excellent captain and made up feel very safe! I highly recommend. And he has great merch!!
Great day on the water, most relaxing day of our Thanksgiving weekend

5.00Our boat captain, Zach, was perfect! He did such a great job sharing history and information about all things St. Thomas and St. John. We wanted to snorkel, see sea turtles and enjoy the water... all of which we did! He took us to a great lunch spot that we would have never known about, if he hadn't suggested it! We loved stopping at St. John and getting to see a bit of that island but mostly, we loved the time at the different beaches he took us to! The wind was crazy, so he took that into consideration for our sake and made the day just perfect! We are definitely going to call on Chris and his team at Legend because we want to do the British Virgin Islands next! Can't wait!
Great Day At Sea

5.00We told Chris we wanted to go to Virgin Gorda to see and enjoy The Baths. He was very upfront about the ride taking longer and it would be windy and choppy. We appreciated the transparency. We weighed the options and said let's go for it. He showed us he is a master at his craft. What a great captain. He shielded us as much as he could from the windy conditions using the islands and handled the swells like a seasoned professional while always checking to see if we were alright. After The Baths he took us to White Bay, Jost Van Dyke. The ride back was even better than the ride out. We went to The Soggy Dollar Bar and had a great lunch. Then "Adios to Jost" back to St John. Thanks again, Chris! -John, Kathy, Kevin and Bunny P.S. Will definitely book with Local Legends on our next visit.
Awesome Local Legend Charters. Capt Jonathan was awesome.

5.00We went out for a full day cruise with Chris around St. John and it did not disappoint ! He took us to some great snorkeling and swimming spots and lunch at Lime Out was so fun. Awesome tacos. Being a 3rd generation islander, Chris is a very knowledgeable and experienced guide! Thanks again Chris!

5.00We had a fantastic day cruising around the beautiful U.S. Virgin Islands! As seasoned eco-travelers who have explored 30 countries, we can confidently say that this private charter experience was our absolute favorite to date. We were fortunate to discover this locally owned and operated business, which takes immense pride in delivering a safe and exceptional experience. Captain Chris was incredibly accommodating, customizing our full day to ensure we checked off everything on our wishlist. We hopped around the islands, snorkeled in vibrant waters, and encountered a stunning variety of wildlife. He also provided excellent local recommendations, he's a wonderful guide. If you're planning a trip to Saint Thomas or Saint John, this adventure will undoubtedly be the highlight of your visit!
