About This Tour
Enjoy the stunning late afternoon light on our "Golden Hours" Afternoon & Sunset Private Charter. This 2 to 3-hour adventure (timing varies based on sunset) begins at 3:45 PM and takes you to the best sites in the Virgin Islands, ending with a breathtaking sunset on the water. Start with a snorkel stop at Maho Bay or Scott Bay Beach, where you’ll have the chance to swim alongside sea turtles. Then, depending on the time of year, we’ll cruise over to Christmas Cove, where you can grab a bite from the famous floating pizzeria, Pizza Pi. Along the way, our experienced captains will share insights about the islands and ensure you’re in the perfect spot to take in the sunset. Our destinations may vary with the seasons and conditions to provide the best experience. Bring your favorite drinks, kick back, and watch the sky shift into vibrant shades of orange, pink, and gold. Whether snorkeling, relaxing on deck, or enjoying a pizza, this trip is the perfect way to wind down your day.
