St. Thomas is the gateway isle of the U.S. Virgin
Islands in the Caribbean. It's known for its beaches
and snorkeling spots. Territorial capital Charlotte
Amalie, founded by the Danish in the 1600s, is a busy
cruise-ship port. Historic buildings include a 1679
watchtower called Blackbeard’s Castle, in reference
to the area’s pirate history. On the harbor,
17th-century Fort Christian is now a local-history
museum.
Included Shore Excursion:
Catamaran Sail & Snorkel
Experience the thrill of boating on a fabulous
catamaran to Buck Island as we sail in the warm
breezes and crystal clear waters of the Caribbean Sea.
Enjoy a fast and very stable ride with spacious
sunbathing decks and a large comfortable cockpit
for those who prefer shade.
After receiving our snorkel gear, safety vest and
expert instruction, our crew will lead a guided tour
through this underwater haven of abundant marine life,
coral formations and colorful sea-life. Keep an eye
out for an inquisitive turtle, rays and maybe even
a shipwreck.
We will spend about an hour at this paradise island
before we will set sail for our return into beautiful
Charlotte Amalie Harbor. An open bar including soft
drinks and rum punch will be available plus stunning
scenery and Caribbean music.
