Quote: I would definitely recommend this trip. The beach is gorgeous and has some good snorkeling. Overall, it was a fun time. I recommend the full-day trip. The half-day may seem too short to see both Buck Island and have enough time to snorkel.

Quote: This is one of many tours to Buck Island. It was pretty deserted in September so we were the only boat there for the 5 hours we had. The equipment was OK.

Quote: This was by far the best day spent in St. Croix. The only opening Big Beard had was on a Wednesday morning, for a half day trip to Buck Island on the sailboat Renegade.

Quote: No need to scuba here. The water is pretty shallow, and you can see all sorts of amazing sealife from the surface. We went with MileMark Tours (captained by Earl, crewed by Marcus) as part of our hotel package. The boat ride is short (~30 min), and... Read the full Buck Island Reef National Monument review

Quote: Everyone raves about Buck Island, so when deciding whether to do the half day or full day trip, it seemed to be an easy choice. To be quite honest, the cookout, which Big Beards advertises for its full day trip, confirmed the decision for us. ... Read the full Buck Island Reef National Monument review
