What To Expect

Make your way to the southern coast of St Thomas, home to the protected Mangrove Lagoon Wildlife Sanctuary and Marine Preserve. Meet your local adventure guide to embark on one of St Thomas' most rewarding snorkeling and kayaking tours in the preserve's rich ecosystem.

Travel through the protected area to Patricia Cay and Long Point, where you'll board your kayak to glide through the may small islands in the mangrove lagoon. While paddling, look out for spotted rays and stingrays as they glide beneath your boat.

Put on your provided snorkel gear and explore the underwater world. Follow your guide's lead and feel free to ask any questions or directions, especially if it's your first time snorkeling. Peer through your mask at the coral-fringed mangrove roots and listen as your guide points out the vibrant surrounding marine life. Hop back in your kayak for the short paddle back to the marina.

Disappointing

We always try to kayak at least once on vacation because we enjoy the exercise and exploring the scenery from the water but this tour lacked interesting scenery, landmarks and landscape. The tour guide were very nice and pleasant but there was nothing much to talk about but Mangroves. (Trees) Worst kayak experience we have had.

We didn’t love this tour. Their was a large group of young people and the tour guide had a great time with them but ignored the middle age people. It was a tiny bit of learning about the mangroves but mostly kayaking for 2 hours. The snorkeling was not great. Saw maybe 2 fish. We would not take this tour again. Also, it’s not a restaurant. We tried it, food was ok, but it’s not set up to be a restaurant
