Alibi Boat Charters was a recommendation from my wife's co workers, and we are glad we took that…read moreadvice. When you think of all the money spent on single excursions from a snorkeling trip, turtle watching, half day on a boat it definitely adds up more than what we spent here. As a family of four, booked on Calico Jack, it was $950 plus tax, so an even 1000. Alibi is very transparent with pricing as well. Be prepared to pay fuel cost (we used 25 gal at $5.77/gal) and minimum $200 gratuity. By the time all is said and done you will be close to $1400. If you are going with another family you can split the costs. The charter company will provide you with a cooler stocked with ice and a 1 gallon of water, you bring the food, drinks and snacks. We brought our water bottles filled already and topped off as needed. As to the snacks, we found ourselves only snacking to take the salt water out of our mouth, other than that we were having fun from location to location exploring beaches and snorkeling spots that by the time we were hungry it was lunch time! Captain Ethan took us to the Island of Luvango for lunch, and this appears to be the spot for everyone. What a beautiful view, and more importantly what a Great lunch! i would highly recommend the bowls, that seemed to be the way to go, and soooo delicious. The drinks were ok, however we were not there to drink. We spent a good hour having lunch, using the restrooms, and exploring the couple of shops they had on the island. After we were all said and done, they take you back to your boat on a dingy and back on the trip. The rest of the day was spent doing some more exploring snorkeling around the islands. Christmas Cove was probably my favorite snorkeling around a small rock formation where I got to see corral and all types of fish, sea turtles, and ocean life. That in itself was worth the trip. The kids did not want to explore so they stayed following sea turtles and swimming around a sunken ship. After that it was onto the last stop at Epstein Island. Captain Ethan said there was some good exploring here too, and he also said, "remember the island didn't do anything to anybody, the people did," so be open and take it in. If anything just for the purpose of saying you saw it for yourself. By the end of the day we were spent. Before you knew it the day was over. To me that is a sign of a great day when you lose track of time, off your phone, having good conversation with the Captain to learn about the locations, and documenting your excursion. Captain Ethan took some great photos of us and was very attentive to going to areas that would allow us to see the most of all the islands. Oh, I forgot to mention Oppenheimer beach...yup "The Oppenheimer", where he ended up living the last of his days. Another memorable spot that we can now say we been too. Should we return back we would definitely consider booking another excursion to explore the British Islands.

We had an amazing adventure with Caribbean Alibi Boat Charters and Captain Val. Our group consisted…read moreof 4 lovely ladies on a girls trip, ages ranging from 69 to 85. Captain Val was very helpful and informative about the safety guidelines for the extremely comfortable boat we were blessed to have for the day. We listened to some great tunes as we began our experience. Val took us to some great locations, informing us along the way about the history and what to expect. Christmas Cove was the perfect spot for a first time snorkeler and Lovango Cay had some great coral and fish! Captain Val's lunch recommendation on St. John was perfect. The day was perfect! From snorkeling with the turtles, colorful fish and diverse coral to the beautiful beaches, history and weather. This excursion was the highlight of our vacation! This adventurous lady was a virgin snorkeler and Val helped make it easy. I'll be returning to my island home in southern Florida and ready to do some snorkeling there asap!

Awesome Time! This is our 12th trip to USVI and Good Day is hands down the best charter we have…read moreever had. The company really makes you feel like you are family. I cannot say enough about our Captain Dusty. He was incredible! He took us to the Baths, Willy T and the Indians. Jumped off the top of Willy T for hours and that Crispy Chicken sandwich was amazing! Great snorkeling, great lunch and Captain's good company. Dusty kept our two 12 YO boys happy by speeding over the waves and lifting them off their seats. He also let them experience actually driving the boat all the way down the channel (under his supervision of course). Made both of them feel like they were the Captains for the day. We have chartered boats all over the Virgin Islands and we have never experienced such a unique blend of professionalism, courtesy and sincere desire to make your day on the water the best day ever. We will not charter with anyone else after being spoiled by Good Day. In fact my Brother just booked three of their boats for October. If you are looking to spend one of the most memorable days of your life, call Good Day; they will make it happen! Why are you still reading? Pick up the phone and call or text Dusty!

Summer 2010 I visited USVI for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. It was my first trip to…read morethe Caribbean and I was not disappointed. While sightseeing was fun and the general island vibe was noteworthy, the most memorable part of my experience was all thanks to Good Day Charters. The Captain and his crew were very knowledgeable and entertaining. They really cater to what you want to get out of the trip. I was a snorkeling "virgin" and Dusty was very patient helping me to figure out how to get everything on correctly and even gave me some pointers on how to swim deeper and see all the fascinating wildlife underwater. The staff was great at navigating the waters and getting us up close to the action... and keeping us fed and hydrated when we weren't floating with the fishies. When choosing a charter to have the experience of a lifetime, I can't see any other option than Good Day Charters. I can't wait to get back and do it all over again!

Amazing Day with Stormy Pirates!…read more We booked a charter with Stormy Pirates to visit Jost Van Dyke (home of the world-famous Soggy Dollar), and it was hands-down one of the best excursions we've ever taken. Our crew -- Captain Cornelius and shipmate Kevin -- were incredible from start to finish. They were extremely knowledgeable about every area we traveled through, sharing history, tips, and local insights that made the trip feel special and personal. Even better, they were very safety-conscious, which made us feel completely comfortable the entire day. From the smooth ride to the crystal-clear stops and the perfect amount of time at each destination, everything was done with care and professionalism. If you're looking for an unforgettable adventure in the Virgin Islands, I highly recommend Stormy Pirates. You won't be disappointed!

When booking you may see another similar company. Make sure you select night kayak.com with he clear boats as it will make a big difference. because of the little light pollution, clear boats and the led lights, and the neon glow sticks they give you (complimentary) we actually got to see a lot! We saw plenty of sting rays, lots of tarpin, a school of fish, and 1 sea turtle. The water was super calm, and because of it we glided through the water very easily. You will be on the water for a solid hour, sight seeing, and at the same time getting a nice history of the island from some great tour guides. Our guides were Curtis and Denning. Very charismatic guys, a fun vibe, and were very attentive to all the guests to ensure everyone was having a good time and being safe. I loved the insight and history about the island. One hour and 20 minutes was just long enough and would definitely recommend.

We knew we wanted to take an excursion from St. John and luckily, our resort (Ritz Carlton Club) was able to find us the perfect trip with Chris. We departed our hotel (with our own drinks and snacks), coolers, towels, diving/snorkel gear were provided. Chris also coordinated going through customs at British Virgin Islands, our first stop were the Baths. It was an amazing ride with the beautiful waters, scenic shorelines, and awesome captain. Chris is not only a skilled captain but a great tour guide having grown up and spending a lot of time in this region. He pointed out the top beaches and a lot of other landmarks along the way. We spent time navigating through the Baths (I suggest water shoes as the ground was fairly hot and some of the rocks, nooks, and tunnels you have to go through are pretty challenging for the some of us. We touched many of the other islands like Tortola, Virgin Gorda, and had lunch at the Soggy Dollar with Chris. Chris is personable, professional, and has a 'good seaside manner'--very skilled at the helm. Loved this trip, Chris and Local Legend made it one of our most memorable travels.

The biggest issue was the lack of organization from the start. We spent close to an hour waiting between multiple lines--first in the sun to exchange tickets, then again to hand off a second ticket. It felt unnecessarily complicated and poorly managed. Because of the delays, the boat traveled very fast to make up time. The water was choppy, and several guests became seasick on the way to the snorkeling site. There were also multiple issues with communication and expectations. We were not informed in advance that full-face snorkel masks were not allowed, which would have impacted our decision to book. The equipment provided did not feel clean, and we were told there were not enough flippers or beverages for everyone. The excursion description advertised rum punch, soft drinks, and snacks, but no snacks were provided. The rum punch was also very poor quality, and most guests declined more. While the snorkeling location at Buck Island was beautiful and the water was calm, the actual experience in the water was lacking. The guide quickly swam off and was not visible to the group, leaving guests without direction. Our time snorkeling felt short--around an hour. The return trip was slower and more comfortable, which we appreciated. However, overall this was the least enjoyable snorkeling excursion we have experienced. We would not choose this company again and would recommend others consider alternative options.
