Best excursion ever, took a snorkel power catamarran to buck island where we saw a lot of turtles, then off to honeymoon beach and back to the ship. The catamarran crew is the best! bunch of lively fun guys with free drinks and music onboard.

Beautiful place. They locals need to fix the place up a bit. They’re dumping trash on the side of the road and not rebuilding like Puerto Rico has.

If you are looking for a great excursion while visiting St. Thomas, I HIGHLY recommend the Sea Lion Swim at Coral World. There are not many places where you can swim with sea lions, which makes this an extremely unique and memorable excursion. After a short ride to Coral World, you will have time to explore the marine park along with the aviary, which is very cool. The birds will land right on you if you buy the nectar to feed them. The tropical birds are very friendly and the experience provides outstanding photo opportunities. The park is very clean and has several different exhibits to enjoy. The employees are very friendly and helpful. There is also a beautiful beach adjacent to Coral World that you will have time to enjoy as well. The sea lion swim lasts about 30 minutes. You interact with them and take pictures with them out of the water and you also spend time swimming with them in the very large tank. They are large South American Sea Lions and are very playful with great personalities. Every person in our excursion group raved about this experience. The trainers are fabulous and extremely informative. They take a lot of pictures of your party. We had 4 people in our group and they took about 80 pictures of us. They show you your pictures at the gift shop at the front of the park. If you want to purchase the pictures, they put the pictures on a USB flash drive. We paid $99 for the flash drive of pictures. I have swam with dolphins on 2 separate occasions, but enjoyed this experience much more. I would definitely do this again on my next visit to St. Thomas. If you are an animal lover or just looking for a fun, unique experience, then this is an excursion that you should strongly consider. It is especially great for families and you do not need to be a strong swimmer to participate. The trainers are awesome about making everyone feel comfortable and enjoying the experience to the fullest.

Megan's Beach was a huge disappointment! All these glowing reviews for this crummy beach. We had to pay for beach admission, plus pay for the old 1980's lounge chairs. Worn down, barely anywhere to sit and the bathroom and changing areas look like they need to be condemned. The best thing was it was overcast and not sunny; so we didn't need any shade--thank goodness!

Snorkelling with a ship’s excursion was wonderful. Our guide was very knowledgeable and was quick to find us beautiful wildlife at every stop. And this was the first time I saw someone actually chastise a group member for not following directions. Quite refreshing. “Don’t chase the turtle away by following them” is actually adhered to. Thanks!

I went ashore to go for a run. Nice running trail next to Yacht club that does out 2.2 miles. My husband had coffee and waited at Bad Ass Coffee for me. Then we went to one souvenir store and back on the boat for lunch and a nap. Then we went on a snorkeling excursion with Castaway Girl. It was good. The snorkeling is just not as good as Hawaii or even western Caribbean but it was fine. Their rum punch was not good. They need a new recipe.

Awesome port. Our favorite of the cruise. The beaches are great, and be sure to check out the mountain top...beautiful! We booked privately through Sunny Liston tours and did a beach/mountain top/shopping tour and had a great time. The ride up and down the mountain is crazy!
