Full or Half Day Private Power Catamaran- USVI Beach and Snorkel
Overview
Enjoy a private full day charter on a smooth-riding, 36' power catamaran with long swim ladders that make getting in and out of the water a breeze. Certified for up to 12 passengers, you’ll have plenty of space whether you are on the nets on the bow or enjoying a cold beer in the shade at the stern. You’ll find many amenities, like a marine head(toilet), fresh water shower and changing area on board. On the morning of your charter, you’ll customize your itinerary with your captain: you might snorkel with sea turtles, discover a hidden beach, taste-test the Virgin Island’s famous Painkiller at a local restaurant or all of the above! Your boat will come stocked with water, soda, beer, floats/noodles, top of the line snorkel gear, and one of our talented and charismatic captains! Enjoy lunch with a view at one of the famous local restaurants.
Please note, fuel is not included and will be charged at $8/gallon for actual usage at the end of the day; fuel averages 20-30 gallons per day.

What To Expect
Embark on a 7-hour boat excursion from American Yacht Harbor in Red Hook, St. Thomas, and discover the natural beauty and island charm of St. John and its surrounding cays. Cruise across turquoise waters with stunning views of the Virgin Islands before arriving at your first stop—Lovango Cay—a private island oasis where you can snorkel vibrant reefs or relax at the upscale beach club.
Continue along St. John’s lush north shore to Honeymoon Beach, perfect for paddleboarding and swimming in calm waters. Then head to Maho Bay, where sea turtles feed in shallow seagrass beds—ideal for snorkeling right from the boat.
After exploring St. John’s scenic coastline, cruise to Christmas Cove off St. James Island. Known for its calm anchorage and colorful reefs, it’s a great spot to snorkel or enjoy a laid-back lunch from the famous floating restaurant, Pizza Pi, serving fresh pizza directly to your boat.
Throughout the journey, enjoy complimentary drinks, a stop for lunch either onboard or at a beachside eatery, and personalized service from your captain and crew. Whether you’re snorkeling, swimming, sunbathing, or simply enjoying the views, this excursion offers an unforgettable day.

Yes, we allow pregnant women to go on snorkeling. However, it’s crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before doing so to assess your individual health and pregnancy stage.
Jan 2022Yes, this is possible, as long as you are comfortable going into the water. All Cool Destinations snorkeling tours adhere to strict safety regulations and have been designed to be enjoyed by all.
Your safety is our #1 priority, which is why:
- You will be wearing a flotation device at all times.
- On many tours, there is a stairway from the boat into the water so you won’t have to “jump” in!
- There are trained staff in the water and watching from the boat at all times.
For these reasons, we believe that even non-swimmers can have a wonderful time on our snorkeling trips, however, the final judgment call is yours to make. Please note we do not give refunds if you decide not to snorkel on the trip.
Oct 2021The snorkel gear we use on Cool Destinations tours is high quality and for your protection, the equipment is sanitized after each use.

May 2023First-time snorkelers can be assured of one-on-one instruction and assistance. We find introducing folks to our world very rewarding!
Oct 2021There are no legal age limits for snorkeling. We have found that age 5 or 6 is a good age to learn the basics of snorkeling, however, it’s entirely up to individuals to make the best choice for their family.
Sep 2021If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy.
