Overview

This is a fun alternative to traditional sightseeing boat tours. Step aboard a cycle boat—a pedal-powered boat that’s equipped with cycle stations, so you can help drive the boat, party, and have drinks at the same time. The cycleboat goes to Water Island—which is known for its idyllic white sand Honeymoon Beach. Here, you can disembark, rest on the beach, or swim where sea turtles have been spotted before.

Enjoy the novelty of exercising while sitting around a bar on a cycle boat
Take a break from pedaling: The boat is equipped with a motor
No expensive bar tabs: Feel free to bring your favorite drinks with you
The tour visits the stunning Honeymoon Beach on Water Island

St. Thomas Cycleboats was an awesome excursion that our family enjoyed. They provide water and rum punch. If you want to bring your own snacks and drinks, you can do that as well. Water Island also has a bar, food and water sport supplies for rent on the island. The beach on Water Island is called Honeymoon Beach and it's absolutely beautiful! The whole staff is super friendly and accommodating. It's the perfect amount of time, especially if you need to get back to the cruise ship. They were so nice that they dropped us off closer to the ship when it was time to leave. Would definitely recommend this excursion!

After thinking we weren't able to go (boat issues) Ben and Josh got us up and running... we had a blast! They extended our time at the beach to make up for the time we lost at the beginning.

Fun Day on the Water in St. Thomas

mssunshine1020, Oct 2019

There were six in our group in St. Thomas for the day as the first port of call off of our cruise ship. I had booked the St. Thomas Cycle Boats afternoon water island tour on Viator prior to our cruise. The marina where STCB leaves from is just a short 5-10 minute walk from the pier where the cruise ship docks. Besides the six of us aged 22-52 there were two other ladies that joined our group. We had a blast drinking delicious rum punch and listening to Caribbean tunes while taking in the spectacular views from the water and pedaling (well, sometimes) to the beach. Captain Ann Marie told us stories and local info and she and first mate Valochi (?) made it such a great time! The beach was beautiful and we had it practically all to ourselves! There were food and drinks available at two different venues on the beach although we did not visit either one. After almost two hours relaxing on the free beach chairs and swimming in the crystal clear water it was time to head back to the marina. The trip back was just as great although we were sad that our time was almost over. There is a restaurant right at the dock where you disembark the cycle boat in case you want to grab a bite before or after your excursion and there is also an ice cream/coffee hut that also serves alcohol (mango smoothie with banana rum is delicious). I highly recommend you check out St. Thomas Cycle Boats on your next trip to St. Thomas!!
