We did the Day Water-sports Package All Day Rental on Honeymoon Beach. We chose the boat shuttle to…read moreget there. They pick you up right where the ferry drops off at which is so convenient. The boat shuttle is a small little boat that fits up to 6 people and it took all of 5-10 minutes to get from the ferry dock to Honeymoon. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. They set up your chairs wherever you want on the beach. They pull out the kayaks for you and give you the snorkel gear. I was a little disappointed because if you are just doing the equipment rental you're not allowed to kayak passed the confines of honeymoon beach, which is kind of small. I have a feeling that is for your own safety though so you don't get overzealous and find yourself lost out on the water without a tour guide! We didn't end up using the SUPs but they were available if we wanted. We snorkeled and unfortunately there wasn't a lot of fish. But we did see a couple sea turtles which was what I was hoping for!! I will say, the food and drinks they sell in the hut are super expensive and downright not worth it. So bring a mini cooler with snacks and water if you can! It was a leisurely day and we liked being able to snorkel and kayak of our own free will!

We thought we were going to the beach we experienced during a cruise, but we're sadly disappointed…read more The beach is nice no waves clear water just what you want in the Caribbean. And the beach was free but it cost $10 to taxi ride down to the beach. The pizza was good The drinks were overpriced. But the souvenir cup was worth it.

*** Private Charter Review *** Bad Kitty offers group tours…read moreon a larger catamaran and some other rentals , but we just did a private charter. AND, if you are in a group of like 6 or more, it's so worth it - you are on your own schedule and un-rushed. We did a full day + an additional hour in the BVI. HIGHLY Recommend the additional hour if you are going to do the Bathes - it's an hour to get out there! But it was worth it - a really fun hike down and just beautiful water - if you aren't trying to do too much in the day you could definitely negotiate spending more time exploring here. Captain Greg was great (we were an older group so we probably were a little boring ) but he told us about the various locations, made recommendations and found us some secluded snorkeling spots after lunch. It was THE BEST DAY in the Virgin Islands, just island hopping around and being on the open water. Very friendly, very knowledgeable - he had a bunch of dining and bar recommendations too! It's no frills and the boat isn't the newest one out there - but it's a great value!!! I hope it stays that way - it's a family run business so that probably helps, but most other charters charge you 50+ per guest over 6 and they are already pricier than Bad Kitty. Bad Kitty only charges you after 8. They also don't charge you more for going out to the Bathes - I did a lot of comparisons and some will up the charge to go that far out and that doesn't even include gas! So this was really a great deal for a nice boat with plenty of shade, a wet bar for mixing drinks, plenty of snorkeling gear and noodles and some nice upgrades if you want food and drinks, but they also offer ice and a cooler if you bring your own I can't say enough good things, it was a really great experience and a great way to see some of the BVI without being herded around in a large group Some things to consider for private charters: - All charge a customs fee to go to the BVI: I saw some as low as $75 and some as high as $90 pp - I think this has to do something with what BVI charges charters each year to enter their waters, but this is not unusual and many will ask for your passports up front. If you don't want to bother with that, stay in the USVI for the day - you will still be able to get to some cool spots! - All charters do expect gratuity for the Captain - standard is 20% gratuity (I suppose you don't have to give that much, but gee... they hang out with you all day, get you to some hard to reach spots and make sure you are back through US customs before they close at 5 so you aren't stranded! So you better have a good reason not to give 20% ) - You are also responsible for the gas - the further out you go, the more expensive this will be. It was $294 for our day out to the Bathes, then to Norman Island for lunch and a few snorkeling spots (but that is going to be based on the volatile price of gas at the moment - SO DO NOT quote me on that). When I talked to the woman who helped me with the booking, she was able to give me estimates based on where we thought we wanted to go - which was helpful for budgeting :) All-in-all - I can't recommend them enough!! I plan to be back in the USVI again next year and will be looking these guys up again! And thanks again Captain Greg for a truly wonderful, memorable day!!!

Our recent trip aboard Bad Kitty Boat Tours (Bad Kitty 2) in St. Thomas was largely a wonderful…read moreexperience. The boat was clean and well-maintained, and the itinerary took us through some of the most stunning waters and islands the Caribbean has to offer. From swimming in crystal-clear waters to relaxing on pristine beaches, it truly made for a memorable day. Despite the longer wait at BVI customs, it went off without a hitch. The crew--apart from one exception--was friendly, engaging, and attentive. They made sure everyone was safe, comfortable, and having fun. The drinks were flowing, the music set a great tone, and the overall vibe was relaxed yet professional. That said, I would be remiss not to mention the demeanor of Captain Jeremy. While clearly knowledgeable about the boat and the route, his tone throughout the day felt unnecessarily condescending and dismissive, I mean this guy is all business. What could have been light-hearted banter often came off as dismissive or patronizing, which slightly dulled the otherwise positive energy aboard. Despite that hiccup, the Bad Kitty experience was still enjoyable, and I would recommend it to others--with the caveat to manage expectations around the captain's communication style. A bit more warmth and respect from the helm would go a long way toward making this a five-star excursion.

To top it off, we left a BCD on the boat & he tracked us down to give it back. 5 star business that I would recommend to everyone.

I have a huge phobia of sharks, so getting into these waters wasn't easy for me but I assure you if…read moreyou have the same concerns, you're more likely to get attacked by a donkey in the Virgin Islands than by a shark. Diamond Reef is part of the Queens Park on the British Side, off of Great Camanoe island. It's right next to scrub island and Marina Cay and I've never seen so much sea life before under water. I don't believe that you can get to this area via road, only by boat but if you love snorkeling plan a trip out. We saw lots of colorful blue and yellow fish that look like dory from finding nemo, massive tarpon, schools of hundreds of tiny fish and so much undisturbed bright coral, it was unreal. There seems to be a designated snorkeling area from the string of buoys to the destroyed dock and the water there was between 25ft to 10 ft deep. Many private yachts dock on the other side of the channel and pop over for snorkeling/scuba. If you're wondering of whether or not it's called diamond reef because there are diamonds here you're close. Apparently a couple came out to this location a while back, got into an argument and a 8 carat diamond ring was thrown into the reef. No one has found it yet, but who would advertise that they found it? The only thing I would advise any visitor to not do is touch anything. Some of the coral here (fire coral) burns to the touch as do some of the fish. You can also get into big trouble if you take anything from this park as everything belongs to the Queen. If you're treasure hunting or just want to see the best sealift underwater this is a must for any trip to the Virgin Islands.
