Neither of us had snorkeled in the Virgin Islands and Captain Mindy did a great job of showing us the sights as well as taking us to some great snorkeling water. The day was very casual and relaxing. Of course, the weather was perfect! We also visited 3 different places in the British VI so we thought we really got... More

One of the best things to do while on St. John is to actually get off of St. John and enjoy the waters and islands around St. John. It is like the second half of the equation; Beach + Caribbean Sea. If you don't get out on the water, you are really depriving yourself of a great day on your... More

We took a cruise with our two kids, ages 6 and 8 and my parents on the Carnival Victory, which stops in St. Thomas. Rather than spending $300 on excursions in each port, we decided to charter Big Blue for the day in St. Thomas and just take cabs to the beach elsewhere. We are so glad we did! Captain... More

We were on the Oasis of the Seas and did not want to do a run of the mill excursion that is offered by cruise ship lines. I found and read about Big Blue and happy that I spent the money, because it was well worth it. Captain Mindy is a delight, she made sure that our day well was... More

Captain Mindy is fantastic! She tailors the trip to whatever you would like to do. The boat is clean, stable, roomy and fun. Although we were not able to trip over to the BVIs because of our passport situation, Captain Mindy did provide a full day of sightseeing and snorkling in around St. John. The spots for snorkeling were great.... More

Our experience with Big Blue Excursions was terrific and the highlight of our vacation! We chartered their 30’ boat for our family’s day trip to the British Virgin Islands. Captain Mindy was great to work with and our captain for the day (Roy Morgan) was very friendly, knowledgable and accommodating. The trip was fabulous, and we got to experience the... More

We had Roy stand in for Capt Mindy on our trip on Christmas eve 2011. He was awesome. We snorkeled in Leinster Bay before going over to Tortola to check in with customs and do some shopping. Then, over to the Norman islands where we snorkeled in the Caves (a little too rough for Indians this day). Caves, hoever, is... More

This is a great way to see many of the BVI's. Captain Mindy and her beautiful boat Gypsy Girl are yours for the day. She only takes up to six passengers on her 30 foot power boat and takes you to your choice of islands. She is very knowledgable about the islands and an excellent boatsman. Everyone seems to know...

We had wonderful snorkling. We were taken to areas where there no one else there and it was marvelous sites. We even saw an eagle ray. One of the many hilights of our cruise! More
