A great day of cruising by charter boat for a group of 6 was provided by Do It in Style charters. The crew of Captain Francois and First Mate Katie were excellent at recommending and planning our day cruise from Sapphire Beach to our pick of the BVIs for outstanding views, wonderful snorkeling and fun bars and grills. They were extremely knowledgeable of the area, the history and the sights. We all had a simply grand experience and would charter with this company again...also loved the crew!
We spent the day with Capt Frank and Jana on SeaMore Charter out of St Thomas. It was the best, good food, excellent drinks and great fun in the sun. They were friendly, knowledgeble and just good people. If you go to St Thomas don't miss this opportunity to have a great day, on a great boat with a great crew!
Capt Rick's sail boat
We started out our day by going to the Marina where we were greeted by Captain Rick and his wife. The other people on our day sail soon arrived, and it was off on an adventure. We were served a tasty breakfast of different coffee cakes, fruit, coffee, and juice. We sailed across the beautiful waters to St. John's, where we docked for our first snorkeling excursion. We saw sea turtles, and many kinds of colorful fish. The Captain provides everything you need to snorkel. He also has flotation mats. if you are not comfortable in the water. It is well worth getting off the boat to see eveything! At this first stop, there is also a beach you can swim to. The Captain will tender you over, if you prefer. A second snorkeling site is enjoyed after lunch. The Captian is very knowledgable about local stories. A lovely lunch was served, snack in the afternoon, and ample alcoholic beverages for those who wish. The Captain and his son were as gracious of hosts as we have ever experienced on any of our many excursions.
Faye took such good care of us at the Oasis Spa in St Thomas Vi is the place to go to to rest and relax! She managed all our appointments (6 of us girls!) via email and was an excellent masseuse as well! I definately recommend the hot stone massage, best I've ever had! Kathy, the nail tech again was fabulous too! Call Fay Mitchell @ Oasis Salon [--] or visit www.oasisvi.com.
We had a wonderful morning there, while our husbands enjoyed a diving trip (boat dock across the street!) at Red Hook Dive Center. Great diving, explored caves and cool reefs! Then we all met at Maggy Malones, (again across the street) great scallops & drinks! Overall great day in St. Thomas!
Booked a snorkel excursion on Daydreamer the next day docked by the Wydham resort http://www.daydreamervi.com Captain Dan and his first mate took such good care of us! Made us great cocktails and then off to the best snorkel site. Highly recommend taking advantage of booking a 1/2 day trip on the beautiful boat the Coconut!
NOTE: Negotiate all prices ahead of time with cabbies! We were lucky enough to find a very nice guy and made a deal for the rest of our stay, per person price, we just called an hour before we wanted to go out. He had an open air safari taxi, great for the 14 of us, but no good if you wanted to keep a good hairstyle! Very breezy!
Took a ferry to St. John, but St. Thomas was just as nice. We went to Trunk Bay and got a snorkel tour underwater, which was pretty cool. No one told us all the amenities close by 3:30, so you have to go early to catch the snack shops, and rental equipmt. Thank God we brought our own snorkel gear!
