Little Buck Island
Your crew will share stories about the history and geography of the area while you cruise to your first stop, Buck Island, with two unique snorkeling sites. See the Cartanza wreck in Shipwreck Cove and snorkel the rock line with your friendly and knowledgeable guide to see parrotfish, damselfish, yellowtail snapper, grouper, and eels. On the other side of the island is Turtle Cove, a favorite hangout for -- you guessed it! -- Green sea turtles who enjoy grazing on the sea grass beds. Pool noodles and snorkel vests available for your comfort. In between, enjoy water, soft drinks, and snacks on the boat.

Secret Harbour
Usually a good destination for a lunch break possibility. We get our boat as close to shore as possible but customers will need to swim/float to the beach and enjoy a lunch at the restaurant there if they like. Other possibilities for lunch could be other beach side restaurants or lunch at Pizza Pi, world famous floating restaurant. Pizzas cooked on board their boat and delivered by dinghy to ours. (Flexible, discuss other lunch options/restaurants with captain).

Ledges of Little St. James
It's a short ride to Little St. James, an infamous private island and home to protected marine park with beautiful hard and soft corals. Guests frequently see large schools of fish like Bluestriped grunts and Blue tang as well as colorful parrotfish, butterfly fish, Caribbean lobster, and octopus. When you're done snorkeling, it's time for Captain's rum punch!
