Best day by far. The crew with captain Alli first mate morgan and deck hand Daniel with trainee Moly are the best. We had a great time and couldnt of had a better crew. Punch was good and our snorkeling adventure was awesome!
Explore an uninhabited island
Breathtaking views
Visit one of the best Caribbean beaches
If the land is just as important to you as the sea, you will love our beach trip with optional hiking experience. Enjoy a powerboat ride departing historic Christiansted Harbor and head straight to Turtle Beach along the North coast of St. Croix. Once you arrive, you can unwind in the soft sand, swim in the crystal clear water, go snorkeling and look for sea turtles and or venture on the hike to the top of Buck Island for a breathtaking panoramic view.
Since Buck Island is uninhabited, there are no facilities or shops available, so come prepared with lunch, snacks, beverages, and any other amenities you may need for the day. Don’t forget your suit and drybag, you will still need to swim to shore.
Highlights
Hike to the observation deck for spectacular views of the barrier reef and St. Croix
Visit Turtle Beach, ‘one of the world’s best beaches’
Enjoy the crystal clear ocean, sun-warmed sand where the calm waters make it the perfect spot for a relaxing swim

Messages From Happy Guests
We had amazing time snorkeling Buck Island with Caribbean Sea Adventures! Allie and Haylee were amazing guides and made the experience super fun. We got to see really cool scenery and hangout on the beautiful island. I could not recommend an activity more! Great for all ages 🙂
Working as an event planner, I recently sent a group of 12 people to St. Croix. Since I was not going to be on the island myself, I needed a reliable company to help me ensure that my group of VIPs had a fabulous experience so for one of the daily outings I turned to Caribbean Sea Adventures. I worked with Jackie and Morgan to plan a day of snorkeling and beach time on Buck Island aboard the Celebration catamaran. My group contacted me immediately after the outing and were raving about everything. The boat was gorgeous, the crew was outstanding, the water was clear and the beach was breathtaking. They could not have been more pleased with everything. Thank you to Jackie, Morgan, and the fantastic crew. Don’t hesitate, book your own Caribbean Sea Adventure!
