Share this tour
Discover St. John’s most beautiful beaches and snorkeling destinations — from the turquoise waters of Trunk Bay to the sea turtles at Maho Bay and the reefs of Waterlemon Cay — all from the comfort of your own private Boston Whaler. This hands-on experience is ideal for adventure seekers, couples, and families who love the freedom to explore at their own pace. Unlike guided tours, you’ll enjoy total control over your itinerary, stopping wherever the day takes you. Soak up the sunshine, anchor in crystal-clear bays, and experience the Virgin Islands from a truly local perspective — the way islanders do.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
You’ll find us to the right of the ferry terminals with a convenient private floating dock along the water’s edge. Our store Low Key Watersports is just across the street, which is our standard check-in location. All Boston Whaler bareboat rentals depart only from this location.
What to expect
Enjoy the freedom of your own private vessel. You’re in control as you cruise the north shore of St. John and the surrounding cays. With seating for 5, each of these Whalers include a built-in cooler full of ice, a Bimini top that allows you to choose shade or sunshine, and the performance and reliability of a Mercury 4 stroke engine. If you’re cruising, snorkeling, or just relaxing on the beach, these boats are all you need for the perfect day out on the water!
