Per one customer who booked the Night Kayak Tour St. John—Westin Resort, "This kayak trip was awesome! We saw so many fish, one tried to jump into one of the kayaks. It was just enough time to cruise through the bay and see fish. They swam under our kayak and bumped their heads on the bottom of it. Our face paint was an added hit and made it fun!"

Most St. John tours are water-based—as you'd expect on a Caribbean island. Excursions vary by duration and the level of fitness required for participants to take part. You'll find day-long charters focusing on sailing, island hopping, and snorkeling as well as shorter excursions for a couple hours of kayaking or diving. Beach-based activities include Jet Ski rentals and Jeep tours, while further inland, you can enjoy food-focused excursions and ghost tours.
Consider an all-day St. John tour to see and do as much as possible in a short time frame. On the 8-hour Circle the Island of St. John | Lunch stop at Lime Out (Taco Boat) tour, you'll get to snorkel at a shipwreck and coral reef, swim with sea turtles and manta rays, lounge at a beach club, shop at local boutiques, and refuel on a taco boat.
If you’re visiting St. John as part of a larger Caribbean vacation, 2–3 days is plenty. That provides time to explore the island while still having opportunities to lounge on local beaches. If St. John is your only destination, give yourself at least 4–5 days, so you can really relax without feeling rushed. This amount of time also allows for an all-day boat charter and another long day trip.
