My friend and I went on the full day sail to Buck Island, and it was amazing!! Besides the island and snorkeling being absolutely gorgeous, the boat ride itself was fantastic. The boat was beautiful, and Kendall and Bethany did a great job!

Great trip snorkeling around Buck Island, then hanging out at the beach after. The natural beauty of the area is unmatched. We went out with Tommy and Michelle – both were knowledgeable and added to our enjoyment of the experience. Would definitely recommend it!
