St. Thomas Boat Charters is having an amazing summer! We have been blessed with unusually warm water temperatures, and now we are seeing extremely calm seas. Most people tend to think about northern vacations this time of year, but this is actually one of the best times to visit the Virgin Islands. With the amazing sea breeze, we stay at a consistent 85-degree temperature which is cooler than most places in the states this time of year. As we move into the slower season the beaches are less crowded, we have more space to explore. If you decide to come down, St Thomas Boat Charters is ready to show you an amazing day on the water. We have so much fun doing what we love to do! Give us a call today.

St. Thomas Boat Charters has been hard at work this slow season getting the boats ready for hopefully another busy season ahead. We have also been enjoying the warm calm waters and all the serene snorkel spots. Being the only boat on the water at times, is really a great experience, and are very thankful for this peaceful time of year. Thankfully we have been spared by the hurricanes so far, and we are thinking about those who were affected by the hurricane in Florida. We went through two category 5 storms in 2017, so our hearts go out to all those that were in the path of Ian. As we slide into the fall season, we are excited about the exciting boating days to come. St. Thomas Boat Charters is looking forward to showing you the best day of your vacation!

August has been a great month at St. Thomas Boat Charters.  The weather and water have been amazing, and we have been taking advantage of this.  The flat calm water has allowed us to explore all the great snorkel spots that when windy are not available to us.  We also had the opportunity to run over to St. Croix  as we had such nice marine conditions for the past few weeks.  The same day we were on the way to St. Croix another boat nearby found a pod of Orca whales.  This is very rare, but they do occasionally navigate into warmer waters.  Our customers at St. Thomas Boat Charters  have been lucky to experience the quiet and laid-back beaches and snorkel spots.  As the kids go back to school, and hurricane season sets in, we get to embrace the beauty away from the crowds and busy times.  Come down for the fall season and let St. Thomas boat charters show what slow season has to offer.
