If you are looking for a great tour with someone who knows all of the best places to go, Alex is your man. He's a local who has clearly spent his youth exploring all of the amazing places in St. Thomas. People have told us that the best snorkeling is on the British islands, but Captain Alex certainly proved that... More

Have chartered with Big Blue four times in the past but Capt Wilson went to Sweden. Always thought he was the best but I now think Capt Alex is better. Terrific way to spend a day snorkeling in the VI's or BVI's. His boat is immaculate and he is very accomadating. More

My wife & I recently chartered Alex's boat for the day and could not say enough good things about Alex. It was easily the highlight of our trip. We let Alex know before our trip that we were very laid back & would defer to him for what we should do on our day trip. We are not big snorklers... More

We just got back from our fantastic day out on the water with Captain Alex. It was our 3rd trip with SunSea and as always we had a great day in the BVI. Alex makes the trip fun for both adults and kids. The ride on the tube is always a highlight for our girls! We managed to visit the... More

This was the highlight of our cruise with two other couples. We've been on lots of cruises and usually go on cruseline sponsered shore excursions but haveing been to St. Thomas before really wanted to see more of the islands. Capt. Alex' has a fast motor boat (twin 300 hp) that he pilots expertly through the island waters where he... More

This was my 3rd trip with Alex and SunSea Charters and I've seen something new and breath taking with each tour. Alex grew up in St Thomas so he is no stranger to the Islands and the many beautiful hidden gems that surround the area. The boat is well stocked for an entire day in the sun. There is plenty...

We were introduced to Alex by one of our friends who ives on the island. We gave Alex a call and told him what we wanted to do and told him since there were only two of us, if he had any other couples that wanted to go along that day for a trip to the BVI's that we would... More

Another great day! This was our second trip with Alex and our day on the boat was once again the highlight of our vacation! Seeing Alex again was like visiting an old friend and he made our group of 4 feel like the islands were our own private paradise. Our full day excursion primarily consisted of snorkeling pristine coral reefs... More

I don't normally write reviews unless the service received was above and beyond. Capt. Alex gave our group of 4 a GREAT day in the BVI's. He was easy to work with and flexible, even picking us up at our location vs., his dock in Red Hook. We mapped out our course for the day and all along the way... More

We visited St Thomas on our Thanksgiving cruise and decided we would spend the day with Captain Alex. We only had time for a half day trip but having been to St Thomas in the past we were hoping to see as much as possible in a short period of time. We met up as planned and pushed off and... More
