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. Please note: Taxi transportation is not included.

Got to see lots of sea trurtles, different type of rays and eels, so many different types of fish. Paul is a very knowledgible guide. He knows what he is doing.
We saw lots of turtles! Also sea urchins, starfish, squid, and conch.

Paul was an amazing guide, helping us find different sea creatures and telling us interesting facts. He had equipment that fit everyone. He was incredibly good with the kids. My 5 and 9 year old absolutely loved him and felt very safe and excited. We walked in right off the beach (very easy for the kids). We saw plenty of turtles and fish. We got to meet a starfish up close and he helped us find a hiding octopus.
Very knowledgeable guide!

The 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.

This 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.

Save 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.
