We had a fabulous day snorkeling. Lunch was delicious 😋. Junior and Nacho were both great! Nacho was a wonderful tour guide with lots of information about the island and places we stopped to snorkel and swim. We saw turtles and starfish. I would definitely recommend this trip.

It was a great time! Sammy and Nacho were the best! They made the experience so much better. We would totally do this again!
Very good experience and recommend it also the cap JR and Noah were the best they know how to make it fun.
We went on this cruise as a group of 5 and one word - wow! We absolutely loved the captain and his partner (Chad and Nacho!!), quality and comfort of the boat, stops/locations, length of day was perfect, the stop for lunch at a local restaurant - amazing! We couldn't recommend this more to other visitors of St M!!!
Bring your swim suit, a towel, and plenty of sunscreen! The crew takes care of the rest!! Sammy and Shawn were the best captains! Lots of great music, mixed with fun facts about St. Maarten, tips about snorkeling and finding turtles…Sammy and Shawn filled our day with fun. The lunch stop was absolutely delicious-bbq style chicken, ribs, fish, or veggie option from Loki’s (locally owned, locally operated!). Can’t say enough…thank you, Sammy and Shawn!!
I never write a review but this tour deserves my time to write one! Shan and captain Fly are the best and the nicest , I meant it! We had lunch and drinks for free and we stopped at so many snorkeling sites and beaches ! Was worth any penny
Third time going with Billy bones and will definitely be back. Saw lots of turtles today. Some fish, and the captain/crew were amazing!
We had the best time snorkeling! Jed and Gabriel were terrific hosts- even teaching my older kids some diving and backflip techniques off the front of the boat. Swimming with sea turtles was very special. The lunch was delicious in Grand Case too! We had kids ages 12-25- all had a wonderful time!
This was an incredible experience. Captain Sky and Alex were amazing. We had the best time exploring the island and snorkeling.
This excursion was truly a 10/10 experience. My girlfriend and I have went snorkeling on a few different islands and this was 100% the best of them all! We saw so many fish and sea turtles. Captain Fly and Alex were our guides and they were Great! They were super knowledgeable, friendly and made the experience a lot of fun! The lunch spot on the excursion Lolo’s was great, the food was amazing! They also found out it was my birthday and they gave me a free drink and also gave us a bottle for our whole group to take shots! It was so awesome! I highly recommend!!
This excursion was totally worth it. You get to see so much of the island and the snorkeling was great! Our Captains Fly and Alex we very knowledgeable and fun! I highly recommend this excursion and ask for Captain Fly and Alex you won’t regret it!
Captain Fly and Alex will take great care of you. They will let you know the area and give you great historical info. The food was excellent. The stops were relaxing and there was great snorkeling! Plenty of liquid enjoyment on the boat!
JR and Noah were absolutely amazing! The excursion was incredible, and it was my very first time snorkeling. Noah was so patient and helpful, making me feel comfortable and confident in the water. This was by far the best part of my trip! If you're thinking about booking this excursion, do it you won't be disappointed. Thank you both for an unforgettable experience!
Our boat trip with Billy Bones yesterday around the island was amazing! The vibes were high, and Alex and Captain Fly, as we called him were fantastic!! They did an amazing job of taking care of every need on the boat. Highly recommend!
Captain Fly and Sean were awesome!! They made sure we all had a great time. We got to see several sea turtles at one of our stops which was probably one of the coolest things I’ve ever done. They took us to several other spots throughout the day to enjoy and showed us a few other places we could go throughout the remainder of our visit to St. Martin. Lunch was great!! They made extra effort for us to have a cool experience watching the planes fly in Maho as well. It was easily our favorite day in St. Martin! 10/10 highly recommend!!
Jad and Noah were great! They made the trip fun and worth it despite the weather! They both helped make unforgettable memories!
Had a ton of fun spending the day on a boat experiencing the different parts of Sint Maarten/Saint Martin. Yohan and Junior were excellent guides who provided a really great experience. Creole Rock in particular had excellent snorkeling, we saw all sorts of beautiful fish. The water out to Tintamarre was pretty choppy and may be difficult for people who get motion sick but it was beautiful once we were there. The lunch was so good we ended up going back to the same place the next day. We would absolutely do this again the next time we are here, highly recommend.
Experience crew that showed us a great time! Snorkeling and swimming with eagle rays and sea turtles. Fun atmosphere for everyone on the boat!
Capt. Sam and Alex were excellent hosts. Their knowledge of the islands and water were top notch. We saw lots of fish and turtles. The lunch was delicious and the drinks were strong! Safety was a top
priority.
This was definitely worth the money. Nacho and Sammy did an excellent job, taking care of us and giving us information about the island. We ate at a local restaurant on the beach and it was amazing. We saw quite a few sea turtles while snorkeling. Overall snorkeling was awesome. I highly recommend this excursion.
Our guides, Junior and Nacho, were excellent! Very knowledgeable about the area and quickly responsive to anyone’s needs even if it was just taking an empty soda can! Great spots and got to see lots of fish while snorkeling as well as sea turtles. Got to see a lot of iguanas at our 3rd stop as well. Really enjoyed getting to just interact with Nacho and Junior.
Be ready for a good time! Our Captain Jad and First Mate Noah catered to our every need and provided great conversation. Boat Nauti Dreams was very comfortable. Lunch was delicious.
The guys driving us were so friendly and funny! We had alot of good spots to snorkle. The food was amazing as well! 10/10 would recommend
Best day trip ever! Sammy and Alex were so amazing! Saw tarpon, turtles, fish, and starfish🩵 Do NOT miss out! Book it NOW!! Oh, and fish at lunch was outstanding!!
Best time of our trip! Well worth the money! You won’t regret it! Shout out to Sammy, Thomas and Alex for the laughs and good time! They kept the drinks flowing and lunch was awesome! Don’t hesitate.
Had a great experience with Billy Bones Boat Charters in St. Maarten! There were only about 10 people on the boat, which made the trip feel much more relaxing and personal. The staff was very friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable throughout the trip. The food was really good, and the rum punch was even better. Everything was well organized, and the crew made sure everyone had a great time. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a fun and relaxing day on the water!
Absolutely worth it!! We had the best tour guides (Jad & Thomas). From the start they brought good energy and vibes! For anyone looking for a boat day I definitely recommend Billy Bones!! Plus lunch @ Lolos was awesome and drinks kept coming so be prepared :)!
Come ready to have fun! Captains Sam and Fly were extremely attentive, fun and helpful. Saw turtles, stingrays, and multiple numbers of different colorful fish and beautiful coral. I would definitly recommend this adventure. Informative and great fun. Brochure as promised and more!
jad and Thomas where wonderful!
Absolutely amazing day seeing the fish at creole rock, and turtles at tintamarre.
Water is absolutely perfect- warm and clear!
I highly recommend it to anyone. They have snorkels, life vests, and noodles to use in the water. Rum punch, coke, sprite, and beer.
The lunch at the local place was amazing- even saw a starfish!
What an incredible day!! I would definitely recommend to everyone. They made sure we had so much fun and enjoyed the day. 5 stars isn’t enough.
We had a great time, great snorkeling. Crew was great, I would highly recommend
using this boat tour.
