What the day feels like

What an all-day charter on the Intrepid feels like

Mornings begin at the dock in St. Thomas or St. John and then open up to the sea: short cruises between snorkeling sites, the easy ritual of jumping off the dive door, and the occasional stop at a favored beach bar or restaurant. The setup favors sociable groups — music on the JL system, a large cooler of water and space to spread out — and the day is paced around your group's swim, snorkel and lunch preferences.
