Share a 1/2 day trip or Sunset cruise

My husband and I are going to be in STJ on 4/20-4/30 for his 40th birthday. We are looking to share a 1/2 day trip but not going to BVI or a Sunset cruise. Anyone interested in sharing a trip with us? We are also willing to go with a big group.

Snorkel gear

So I'm wondering if we should bring our own gear or buy it once we get there? How much does snorkel gear cost on St John? Also do we really need fins? Are there certain beaches that fins are worth it? Thank you!

They need to pay for the calls, you had no choice but to use the phone more then you wanted too. Their boat failed and right there should be enough to know they need to cover the bill. That's bad customer service. I will not be using their service at anytime. Sorry that happened to you. Repeat custo...

The obsession is in full force!

Another question....yes the obsession has begun....well, it started awhile ago. Anyways, I am wondering if on the Red Hook ferry back to St Thomas there is ever a time when the ferry is to full to accommodate all the cars waiting to go?
