The entire experience was incredible. The weather wasn’t great but we were still able to snorkel. We were able to see turtles, fish, and rays. Christian and Bradley were awesome hosts/guides! They really take care of you and made the experience worth it.

Matt and his 2nd hand mate did a great job with being patience and informative along the voyage. The day was perfect for boating but not sailing and the captain still dropped the sail to provide me the experience I was looking for. Christmas Cove is a nice place to relax.

The small intimate group gives you such a personal experience no other ship can provide. This was my second trip with Max Tours. I will continue to book with them for any future trip.

With a small group we were treated like great friends instead of clients. From the moment we met Bob and Kelsey (our hosts) we were engaged and felt like a day on the water with old friends!

A great variety of experiences. Great and fun crew and captain and a very comfortable boat. Saw lots of underwater sea life.
Susan_S, Dec 2024
This was hands down the best experience ever!!!! We went to two secluded beaches where we were able to see SO much wildlife! My partner and I enjoyed just hanging on the boat and swimming. Casey was so knowledgeable and nice! She pointed out all the wildlife and was so patient with my partner who hadn't snorkeled in a while. Will definitely book again!!!!! Worth every. Single. Penny. !!!!!!

Fantastic crew and great boat and venue. Perfect experience, snorkeling, sailing and super refreshments.
David_H, Nov 2024
We absolutely loved our full day of sailing and snorkeling with Captain Tim and Sharon as his crew. The boat was a perfect size for the six guests on board. Plenty of room to move about and chill out. They took us to three snorkeling locations that had plenty of fish and we even saw a sea turtle. Lunch was delicious. Tim grilled some marinated chicken and also had a pasta salad. There were plenty of drinks but the rum punch was the best. On our way back there was enough wind for us to actually sail. It was great. We definitely recommend going on a tour with Max Charters.

We had the pleasure of snorkeling some of the best private dive sites with the crew. I’m a scuba diver with over 400 dives on sites the world over and these shallow reefs we visited were some of the best shallow dives I’ve ever experienced. This combined with our gratuitous captains and first mate made this one of the best day trips I have ever experienced. The max number of guests is 6 so you never feel like you are on a cattle car.
Don’t pause…. Book it, I assure you it will be one of the best day trips you and your family will ever experience.

We booked a full day sail as part of our 10 year anniversary trip and it was such a great time. Murray and Casey were fun, helpful, kind and knowledgeable all while taking excellent care of us. They took us to some awesome snorkel spots but also left time to sail through some of prettiest water you’ll see anywhere. We will definitely be booking again on our next trip to USVI. You will not be disappointed when booking!!

Murray and KC were amazing!
This was our first time snorkeling, and KC made it so comfortable and easy for us. We had a great time! Thank you again Pete for having such an amazing team. THE BEST!!

Obviously the location was great. But, the captain and crew went above and beyond to make our experience something to remember. Thanks Mark and Casey.
Jeneil_T, May 2024
The captain and mate were awesome. We had a blast! Food was good and snorkeling with a guide showing us everything was great.

Captain Bob and Casey gave us a day filled with beauty, laughter and connection with nature. 14/10 will relive this day in memory
Tristen_M, Apr 2024
Great crew. We had such a fun time sailing and snorkeling. They knew all the great spots and treated the environment with respect. I saw every animal I was hoping to see with the snorkel guide.
Gayle_B, Apr 2024
Eric & Casey did an outstanding job of making us comfortable during the cruise. Food and drinks were delicious and plentiful. Boat was clean and tidy. Very organized.
Amandine_F, Mar 2024
Perfect trip! We went with our family which included two kids 6 and 9. Everyone loved it and the kids wanted to do it again. The swimming and snorkeling was great and the crew were fantastic! We’d recommend Max charters to any of friends and would definitely book again!
Karen_C, Mar 2024
During a fantastic trip to St Thomas with our teens, this was definitely the highlight. We had an absolutely fantastic day with Capt Aaron and Casey. From making us feel welcome, bringing us to cool spots to snorkel, pointing out marine life, preparing a delicious lunch and just providing a flat out fun time, we will never forget our day with them. Highly recommend!
Deirdre_V, Feb 2024
This trip was amazing!! The fish were spectacular. The food was gourmet. Mom enjoyed the tequila. Don’t even get me started on the water! It was as clear as my search history. A must do!!! You’re welcome, Captain Aaron! 😉
Richard_P, Feb 2024
What a great day. Crew and captain were all awesome! Lunch and snacks were tasty and drinks were plentiful.
Connie_F, Feb 2024
Our trip was magical! Aaron was a fantastic captain with lots of information and his first mate Casey was not only skilled in the way of the shop for an excellent cook and very knowledgeable snorkeling guide. This was a must do trip with the perfect team!!!
Jane_M, Dec 2023
Our family of five all agreed that this was easily the highlight of our trip to St. Thomas. Aaron’s a great captain, sharing a bunch of VI history while Casey was an awesome first mate, super attentive and a great mixologist. They took us to two great snorkeling spots where we saw an incredible variety of fish along with turtles, stingrays, octopi, squid; just about everything you could want to see. We’re already planning a return trip next year and will be booking this tour again.

This is my third trip to the USVI and we booked the full day snorkeling sail with Max Charters. The 4 of us were all very pleased with the excursion. The Caption and first mate were both knowledgeable, thoughtful, caring, and gave us options and asked us what we wanted to do. We felt like they were really in tune with giving us the trip that would be best for us. We spent the day snorkeling, but first we enjoyed a rum punch on our way to the first site. They had a full bar so the options for drinks were many. After snorkeling, we enjoyed cheese, crackers and fruit on the way to the next site. The snorkeling was great, lots of fish, high quality coral, and greatly appreciated. We then enjoyed a lunch consisting of grilled chicken and a pasta salad with beer. We were treated with respect and taken care of, I had make a higher recommendation for this great crew/trip.

I spent hours looking for the perfect excursion for our mini-moon in the US Virgin Islands, and can tell you definitively that THIS is the one you're looking for. Captain Aaron and First Mate Casey were incredible and planned a perfect trip for us. We successfully dodged rain 3 times and enjoyed stunning locations for snorkeling while having a great time with the other passengers and seeing the best the USVI has to offer. Captain Aaron knew spots that were empty, pristine, and brimming with sea life to enjoy. We saw sting rays, baby sea turtles, and countless beautiful tropical fish. The food was incredible - filling, refreshing, and tasty. They had gluten-free options on board for my husband without us even having to ask in advance. The rum punch was spot on. This was absolutely the highlight of our entire week - it was so good, we thought about booking a second day because nothing else could top our trip with Max Charters! It's everything you're looking for - just book it before someone else does :)

The trip was great. The crew (Matt and Tara) were very chill, attentive, and knowledgeable. They took us to some great snorkeling spots. We saw sea turtles at multiple locations, a stingray, tons of exotic fish, and some beautiful reefs.
Tracy_K, Jul 2023
Everything about the day sail was excellent. The crew, Matt and Tara, were kind and professional. The boat was big and beautiful. The food was thoughtful and yummy. The snorkeling was fun and different.
Amber_W, Jun 2023
The highlight of our trip to St. Thomas. Hunter and Tara were the best. They took great care of us and we sailed to beautiful locations with amazing fish and sea life. The kids were able to check off swimming with sea turtles from their bucket lists!
Ranada_D, Mar 2023
My husband and I had a really nice, relaxing day on the sailboat. We went to two locations for snorkeling that are only accessible by boat and the reefs were beautiful. Lunch was great and everyone was very friendly.
Paul_M, Feb 2023
It was a terrific experience sailing. Stopped at three snorkeling locations spending one hour at each spot. Hunter and Jamie were terrific hosts. We were served lunch, drinks and snacks. Two of the snorkeling spots were on St. John and you could spend time on the beautiful beaches if you don’t want to snorkel. Snorkeling equipment is provided. The experience is semiprivate, limited to 6 people on our trip. Would definitely do it again.
Christopher_A, Jan 2023
Absolutely amazing. Between sea turtles at St. John and the reef at Lovango we had an excellent time on the water.
