Group on 8 adults on all day private tour with bar and food add on. Prince and Addison did such a great job at giving us the favorite day of our trip! We did 2 snorkel spots and then spent the rest of the day on water floats - love that they are tied to boat so the current doesn't take you away. Addison cooked some amazing burgers and hot dogs on the boat grill (sooo good that when we had a burger at a restaurant he complained that it was not as good as Addison's LOL) Highly recommend this company and crew, they all went above and beyond to give us a great time!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our day aboard Adventure Awaits! Captain Joe, Heather, and Michelle were all very personable and easy to communicate with, with fast responses to my questions. They are very accommodating to the guests and what they want to see/do. They timed our trip to lime out perfectly where we were able to get to a lily pad and enjoy awesome tacos. They could accommodate to families with kids as they have multiple floating rafts, paddle boards, jumping off the boat, snorkel gear, and plenty of shaded spots on the boat to take a break out of the sun. They also provide light snacks, light beer/rum and you are free to bring whatever else you want. They take pictures throughout the day and provide you with a go pro to take in the water, which she should’ve have used more, and then give you the pictures/videos later! They seemed to be one of the more reasonable priced group charter companies and I would highly recommend them to anyone visiting the islands!

Amazing charter! We chartered a sunset cruise for a family event and the crew (Gerald and Heather) were beyond amazing!!!! They handled the older members of our party with extreme care in navigating the boat and during a little sea sick. I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for a charter in st. Thomas and I would would definitely use them again. Oh I forgot --they also enjoyed our musical selection and jammed with us every part of the journey!

We had an amazing, relaxing cruise to a couple of different beach areas along the St John coast. Did a bit of snorkeling, some relaxing on the floating raft, ate our packed picnic lunch and were well informed about the coastal views from the crew. The crew was amazing, informative, polite and chatty when you wanted them to be. We manage a campground on Water Island and we will certainly recommend Adventure Awaits to out guests.

First class, friendly, beyond accommodating..
As a single mom traveling with three kids between grade school and high school, it’s difficult to find vacation activities that delight all of us. Adventure Awaits knocked it out of the park!
Captain Heather and First Mate Brittney bent over backwards to make us feel welcome. They made sure all of the floats, paddle boards, and noodles were in full use, directed us to and informed us about great snorkel spots. Every time I turned around, Brittney was offering a cold drink, plunging herself into the water to help the kids interact with sea life or taking underwater photos, and even giving on island restaurant recommendations.
They grilled us a fantastic lunch with something for everybody
Both were exceedingly friendly and seemed to be confident, experienced, and truly invested in helping us have a memorable day.
This is our third private charter experience of 2022 and far and away the best. We’ve booked again for before we leave this time and will do so on our next visit.
As a bonus, I believe this is a relatively new, family owned, women owned, business and they are killing it! I love it when that happens!

My husband and I booked this last minute for our last day on island and had it was awesome. Our crew was David and Eric. Eric was captain and David was deckhand this day. The other guests this day were a lot of fun. However, not long after we left shore I got pretty nauseous and it lasted all trip. Everyone else was fine. The reason I mention this is because rather than being annoyed, David took pity on me and did everything he could to make me comfortable, from giving me ginger chews to ice cold water bottles for the back of my neck to trying to sit me anywhere on the boat to make me feel better. I was annoyed with myself, but David certainly made it more tolerable. Even though I was nauseous I still managed to enjoy myself. That has only happened to me once before a couple of years ago so I did not expect seasickness this day.
We highly recommend these guys. They also had snacks, drinks, great stops along the way and a really cool giant float to put in the water at the stops. The Pizza Pi boat is actually pretty good pizza. The price for this trip was outstanding! And, David took pics and videos all day and airdropped them to us at the end of the trip. You will be so glad you booked with these guys, and don’t forget to tip them well. They work hard and deserve it!

We charted the boat from St Thomas and took it St Johns. We had a fantastic experience. The crew was A+.
Very helpful with the children onboard. The boat was able to handle 3-4ft swells nicely.
Pricing was very reasonable but the boat is a bit dated. But great value for a day at sea!
I highly recommend this company.

This was our second trip with Adventure Awaits, first was a private charter last year on their Catamaran, this time on their Group charter 48’ yacht. Captain Heather, Michele and Olu, were delightful to spend the day with. The boat was roomy and had the perfect balance of sun and shade. They bring all the toys that you need to make an unforgettable day, SUP, snorkels, the coolest multi person party float, noodles and type 4 floats to assist those who need extra confidence in the water. You won’t find a better bargain than booking one of their group tours, come as a couple, family or small group, there will make you want to come back again and again.

We chartered a 4 hour trip with Adventure Awaits to celebrate my sister's birthday. Even though most of the folks in our group didn't want to swim/snorkel, Captain Judy and her mate/mate Walter still showed us a great time! We stopped at Honeymoon Beach and Little and Big St. James where Judy and Walter threw out the floats and pool noodles. I even fulfilled my dream of jumping off a boat into the ocean. The charter came equipped with snacks, water and lots of ice to keep the drinks we bought on board nice and cold. We even stopped at Pizza Pi for lunch before heading back to the marina. Special shoutout to Q for setting everything up and getting us prepared for our day on the water. We can't wait to book another adventure with the AA team!

We had a wonderful time on the murder mystery sunset cruise! Michelle and the crew were very attentive, without getting in the way of their guests. The mystery — “cruising for murder” — was charmingly elaborate. One of the things that made this work was the excellent communication before hand. If you decide you want to do one of the murder mystery cruises, be sure to read your materials! Dressing up in character is a big part of the fun of this type of event, too, so if you decide to do it definitely get your costume together for maximum fun.
I also really appreciated that Michelle took the time to call us beforehand to be sure we were set for our event.
The boat was well decorated and comfortable, and the food supplied for the murder mystery event was fresh and yummy.
Definitely would recommend using this company again, and in fact we are planning a private charter day with them later this year.
