Our experience with B.E.A.C.H. Charters VI was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Captain Judy and First Mate Angie made what was already a beautiful day in the Virgin Islands truly unforgettable. Both were exceptionally personable, welcoming, and accommodating, making us feel less like customers and more like family. Their knowledge of the area, attention to detail, and genuine passion for creating a memorable experience were evident throughout the entire trip. One of the highlights was snorkeling with Angie. Instead of simply pointing us in the right direction, she actually swam alongside us and helped us spot amazing sea life that we would have otherwise missed. Her enthusiasm and willingness to go above and beyond made the experience so much more enjoyable. Another fantastic stop was lunch at Pizza Pi, the floating pizza boat. Not only was it a unique and fun experience, but the pizza was absolutely delicious and made for the perfect island lunch. From the breathtaking scenery and incredible snorkeling to the warm hospitality and personalized attention, every aspect of the day exceeded our expectations. Captain Judy and Angie created an experience that we will remember for years to come. If you’re looking for a private charter in the Virgin Islands, I cannot recommend B.E.A.C.H. Charters VI highly enough. This was easily one of the highlights of our trip!

We took a mid-day excursion with BEACH VI. It was wonderful. Ivy helped my wife plan it well and communicated about the details, including arranging a driver (paid separately) and helping to plan lunch from Pizza Pi in Christmas Cove. Captain TL and his assistant, Angie, were very accommodating for our group of 5. This included pointing out sights on St. John, other smaller islands, and great advice on where to go and what to look for when snorkeling. The equipment was easy to use and the boat is extremely comfortable. Would 100% recommend!!
My wife and I had an amazing experience with Captain Tuna - he was a great captain. He took us to some amazing spots and showed us all of the sites of the USVI and BVI. Captain Tuna was born and raised in STT and knows all about the islands and history. I would highly recommend this company and Cpt Tuna.
Amazing half day boat excursion snorkeling off St John with Captain Jodi! She was an excellent captain and very fun! My 10 & 7 yr old also felt confident on the adventure off island. She took us to some amazing spots we wouldn't have otherwise been able to see with much healthier coral then what we were able to see off the beaches. Friendly office staff made booking super easy and the boat was new and beautiful. It was the best part of our trip!
Sunset musical sail with the amazing Lauren and Elena Magnie serenading us with their beautiful voices and talent. Loved every minute
I wish I could review the actual sailing charter, but unfortunately, it never happened — which seems to be a theme with this company. After booking and planning around this trip, the charter was canceled with little notice and even less professionalism. No clear explanation, no accountability, and absolutely no effort to make things right. What was supposed to be a relaxing experience turned into a frustrating mess of unanswered questions and wasted time. If you enjoy rearranging your schedule, scrambling for last-minute alternatives, and feeling like your plans don’t matter, then this might be the charter for you. Otherwise, save yourself the headache and book with literally anyone else. A sailing charter should inspire confidence and reliability — this one delivered disappointment instead. Also, the company failed to refund our deposit
We booked a sunset cruise that included spreading cremated remains in the water. It was absolutely PERFECT! We floated out to Christmas Cove where we were able to drop anchor and have the private time to do this. The captain and his assistant were so absolutely accommodating and thoughtful. We completed the night by taking in the sights, the bioluminescent fish and listening to classic rock music. We could not have asked for a better experience.
What a great time. Ivy & TL are awesome people. The communication from beginning to end could not have been any better. They arranged for transportation from our cruise port to their shop and back, no issues. Family vacation, with some of our families first time doing this type of thing, and it was wonderful. The pizza boat was closed for the season, not an issue, as Ivy made great turkey wraps and rum punch. We would highly recommend working with them, if you have the opportunity. Thanks again to both of you for a outstanding experience. Be safe out there.
I traveled to St. Thomas with my 80 year old parents for there 60th anniversary. I chartered Second Chance for a half day to allow my parents to see the beauty of the USVI from a boat. Ivy and TL were amazing. They were so kind and sweet with my parents. They helped them around the boat, engaging in conversations and making them feel so comfortable. My husband and I snorkeled and TL snorkeled with us. He would dive to the bottom and bring up various types of marine life for us to touch and see up close. I am so glad I booked this charter with Ivy and TL, it was absolutely the highlight of our USVI trip.
Our family had a great half-day trip on the catamaran. The views were beautiful, and everyone found something fun to do. Some of us went snorkeling and saw an octopus, a shipwreck, and a sea turtle. We also enjoyed tasty pizza delivered by boat and drinks on board. Relaxing at the front of the catamaran, watching the waves, was amazing. Plus, the boat had the two cutest dogs, Bella and Widdle, who added extra charm to the trip. The crew was very kind and made sure we had a wonderful time. Highly recommend!
Captain and crew were very knowledgeable! Lots of turtles, rays, and fish. Extremely friendly, and very attentive. We had a great time.
This catamaran tour is exactly what my husband and I wanted for our family on Christmas Day! We were on a cruise with my parents and his mom and wanted to share a unique, intimate and special experience with them for the holiday. We are EXTREMELY grateful they operated a tour on Christmas Day. Ivy was excellent to communicate with and coordinate everything in the months leading up to our trip. She assisted us in pre arranging our transportation to and from their dock from the cruise ship. Cpt TL and crewmate James were amazing and so much fun!! We left the itinerary up to them and their expertise of the area. My husband and I wanted to do some snorkeling and have some time in the water so we made two stops for that. One stop was Christmas Cove, so very fitting! It was such a perfect day with the best weather and phenomenal crew! We will definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone wanting a special day in St Thomas!!
Great trip for two families of four. Older teens. A variety of snorkeling spots and sunset cruise with rum punch. Everyone had a great time and our hosts were fabulous and went out of their way to make it a great experience. 5/5 stars
What a perfect day thanks to this amazing crew! We had a private excursion with a party of 11 including 2 families with little kids to adult age kids. James & TL (and Ivy) were wonderful and made our day perfect. They took us to a gorgeous spot where we were able to snorkel and see sea turtles and enjoy the view of all the islands along the way! The boat was perfect and they provided refreshments and snacks and lots of water toys. Highly recommend!
What a fabulous time we all had!!! You guys were a joy to get to know and be with!!! I am obsessed with the dogs ❤️. 100 stars!!!
Such a gorgeous experience. The views were amazing, the boat was beautiful, and Malachi and Mike were very attentive. We traveled to the BVI and walked through the Baths, then circled back around and snorkeled near Waterlemon. Overall, it was a great time, and we all highly recommend it.
