Begin your adventure on a beautiful, wide beach—the most protected bay in the Virgin Islands, where calm, clear waters gently meet the shore. This peaceful setting is a favorite hangout for green sea turtles, who graze on the shallow sea grass beds. From the soft sand, you’ll gently walk into the water—no boats, no deep water, no jumping in. With easy beach access and shallow, sheltered waters, this tour is perfect for beginners and first-time snorkelers. Our experienced guides will be with you every step—helping with gear, teaching you how to snorkel, and pointing out amazing sea life. Floating comfortably in your life vest, you’ll explore a thriving underwater habitat where sea turtles swim nearby. You may also spot stingrays, pufferfish, squid, colorful reef fish, and even an octopus as you drift from one area to the next. This is a relaxed, unhurried experience—ideal for nature lovers and anyone seeking a peaceful connection with the sea. Whether it’s your first time snorkeling or your favorite way to explore, this unforgettable encounter brings you close to the magic of sea turtles—peacefully and naturally.

3.00The trip is just beach snorkeling with a guide for 1:30 hours. I guess I just assumed it was on a boat! Guide was very knowledgeable as she was a recent grad of UVI and local. It was a nice trip but d.

5.00This was my first time booking through Viator and I was honestly a little hesitant, but this ended up being one of the best parts of our trip. The biggest difference is that this is an experience-focused tour, not a volume/throughput excursion. We were about 20 minutes away from the cruise port to a quieter area (Brewer’s Bay), and it made a huge difference in what we were able to see. Our guide was fantastic — She didn’t just drop us in the water and hope for the best. She actively found wildlife for us, dove down to point things out, and gave clear instructions (especially to the kids) on how to respectfully interact with the animals. We saw multiple sea turtles (including one with a remora), a manta ray, a sea urchin, fish, and a queen conch. It felt like a curated experience, not random luck. They also provided proper gear (life jackets, etc.), which made it accessible and comfortable. If you’re deciding between a large cruise excursion vs. something like this, I would 100% recommend going with a smaller, local operator. The difference in quality and care is very noticeable. Would absolutely book again.

1.00Save yourself the money… It’s a free public beach, just bring your own snorkeling equipment ($20 on Amazon) and get in the water … there’s no secret passage to the sea turtles, no secluded area for paying customers I paid $237.00 for my family of 3 swam amongst people who paid $0 and seen the same as them (one turtle) and (one sting ray). Tho I must admit the water was clear and refreshing.
Majestic with many sea turtles! Guide is amazing!!!

5.00My guide was absolutely amazing and so nice! We saw multiple stingrays (big), cow fish , MULTIPLE big sea turtles , sea urchins, beautiful orange starfish , a huge conch shells !!you don’t have to worry about extensive swimming you were a floating vest to help you relax and just enjoy the view down. You don’t have to worry about the stingrays they stay low to the ocean floor grazing it! The sea turtles were adorable and i was surprised how many we saw ! It was majestic beautiful and everything i hoped for and more! Thank you !!
Adventure and informative fun combination. Highly recommend.

5.00The guide is a very knowledgeable marine biologist young woman who is keen to share her knowledge of all sea life we saw today. Friendly and safety conscious.

5.00This was a an awesome introduction to snorkeling for myself & my husband. We went with my niece & her boyfriend. It was a small group & we had a great time! We saw sea turtles, octopus, squid, & so many different types of fish. Our guide was very knowledgeable & was taking videos of the adventure. We have a video of a sea turtle surfacing for air right next to my niece’s boyfriend. What an amazing memory for us. Would definitely recommend this snorkeling tour!

2.00Near beach only. Could take your own snorkeling equipment or rent some and go to any of many cleaner beaches and get a better experience. A guide was not needed for what we saw.
