This Excursion Made our Entire Vacation - Bonus Time was a fantastic boat. Captain Scott took great care of us and planned an itinerary that catered to exactly what we wanted. We snorkeled incredible reefs and swam with sea turtles. This excursion made our trip. I couldn’t recommend Bonus Time or Scott any more!!

Best Boat Day EVER - We had Captain Andrew for half day boat trip and he took us to Lime Out for lunch and an awesome snorkel spot!

Everything you could ever want ! - Captain Andrew had all the best ideas for how to spend the day. We did everything on our bucket list! From limeout, to the best views of St. John, to snorkeling, and back, it was seamless. I would highly recommend spending your day on the water, it’s the best way to see it all!

Truly Amazing! - Andrew took our family of 7 out for a half day charter! It was exceptional, we let him guide us and we were not disappointed! We swam with turtles, snorkeled in gorgeous water, swam off the side of the boat, and even saw a shipwreck! It was the best excursion of out trip!

Great time.. - I don't know where to start. The captain made you feel very comftable. He took us to all the nice snorkeling areas. Overall this was the best time we had in st thomas. Smaller boat less crowded and more easy to get around the bigger boats . We loved everything. Thank you
