Amazing Day with Brody and Lindsay

We had an awesome experience on Seas the Day full day charter. We snorkeled at three different coves and ate at Lime Out for lunch. We snorkeled at a shipwreck, saw stingrays, sea turtles, and various other fish, and even had a dolphin show up and swim with us for at least 15 mins at our last stop. Captain Brody and Lindsay were both great! They were very knowledgeable and friendly and treated our family so well; we couldn’t have asked for better people to spend the day with. We didn’t want the date to end!

Pat_G, May 2026

A wonderful cruise excursion!!! We all loved it.

It was very good experience. We signed up with VI Cat instead of the option offered by RCL because VI Cat’s was longer, cheaper and allowed my 5-year old granddaughter to participate. The crew was great & fun. The vessel was clean and the snacks tasty. And they got us back in time.

Wonderful Excursion

Captain Mike & his shipmate Vanessa are very knowledgeable of sailing. They explain everything in detail & make you feel safe. My sister & I spent my 60th on this excursion. There were only 5 other people on the boat & this made for a more personalized trip. They explained how to use the snorkel & mask, sanitized each one, helped you get in & out of the water, if you needed help. You had options to use a life vest or not, a noddle if you preferred, a floating mask if you were not comfortable with a snorkel & mask. We went from the Marina to Buck island & they told some history of the area & answered our questions. Vanessa got into the water with us & showed us where to go see the turtles. She brought up a large shell with a crab in it & let each person hold it & take pics. We saw several turtles, a lot of fish & we snorkeled over beautiful coral where there were small & large sea urchins. I saw a small octopus. Great music, light refreshments & Rum punch on your way back to the Marina. Don’t miss out on a wonderful experience to sail & snorkel with sea Turtles & so much more. The only regret was forgetting my waterproof phone pouch but a nice lady (Callie) sent me some underwear pics. 🙂

A Definite Must!

My friend and I booked this snorkeling trip and it was a fantastic experience. Captain Serena, Catie and Ron were amazing. I’ve been on other snorkeling excursions, and this was the most organized snorkeling experience. Serena and Catie made sure everyone in our group had a great time and got a chance to see sea turtles along with many other colorful fish. This was also the perfect size excursion with a small group and felt very safe. I highly recommend, this well worth it. Thank you Serena, Catie and Ron for a truly memorable experience.

It’s a great time! Worth it!

This experience was so much fun! We saw tons of fish and a couple of turtles. Others in the group saw a shark and a ray. The crew were fun and informative…had so much fun with John, Sidney, BK and Braxton too! Drinks and pizza were plentiful and the sunset was beautiful! Couldn’t ask for anything more.

Worth getting wet !

Excellent quick port excursion tour. Was a quick 10 min walk from cruise port. They were very courteous and even waited for the late arrivals. YOU WILL GET WET ! Dress appropriately. Our Capt/Guide was very informative and gave us warnings before the splash. I wasn’t paying attention for th first one so I tweeked my back …no worries it healed, thanks for the fun memories Capt Chris !

10/10 Trip

This was incredible. Dakota and Adrien were constantly checking up on us, making sure if we were okay or wanted anything more to drink. Adrien was complimenting my daughter and her best friend and she was very friendly to them. We were very comfortable and felt very safe on the boat, especially with us being in such a vulnerable state as we were.

Beautiful Nighttime Cruise

My wife and I were celebrating my birthday, and Captain Mike and his crew (Dan and Dakota) treated us to a truly memorable night. It was Taco night and they were indeed Most Excellent. We cruised by and between many of the islands surrounding St. Thomas and cruised past the main island town of Charlotte Amalie with all its lights rising into the surrounding hills. Word got around that it was my birthday and the crew and fellow passengers enthusiastic (but not necessarily melodiously :-) ) sang me Happy Birthday.

Book with Seas the Day!

Hillary was a wonderful captain! Smooth sailing, took us to beautiful spots to see turtles and colorful fish. Had great tunes and cold drinks. Very professional company, they reached out prior to the trip with all information and waivers, gave her personal number in case we ran into any issue. If we ever make it back to St Thomas, Seas the Day will be our excursion company.

Amazing Sunset Cruise

This Sunset Cruise was so fun! The staff are not only hilarious and so fun but 1000% attentive! They all came around non-stop to fill our drinks, pass around amazing appetizers (5 courses which you may want to wait until after the cruise to eat a big meal EVERYTHING was delicious) and shared their knowledge of the island as we cruised around it! Unfortunately it was a bit overcast the night we went but us having so much fun made it worth not getting the best photos. This was top notch service, top notch fun, top notch location and worth every penny we spent! You won't regret spending a couple hours with this fantastic crew!
