Captain Ivan is the man. He was super knowledgeable and a great dude to talk to. We rode the Coqui very comfortably around the island while Captain Ivan showed us all the good snorkeling spots. I would highly recommend booking the ride early in your stay at St. John to observe the island from the comfort of the boat and get all the good recommendations for the rest of your stay.

We spent the most wonderful day out on the water with captain Ivan. He was so knowledgeable about the island and knew all the best spots. There were plenty of cold drinks to go around, and great floats and snorkel gear. Captain Ivan is a super chill guy full of great advice about how to spend your day out on the boat, but he let us pick and choose what to do and make the day our own. We have done lots of boat excursions on vacation and this one has got to be the best! Definitely recommend booking with captain jug tours!

Our family of 8 did 3 different boat excursions while in the US Virgin Islands and this was by far the best. The Coqui was a very comfortable boat, easy to get on and off and an easy ride. Captain Ivan was an absolute joy. He was so friendly and knowledgeable. He took the time to learn what experiences we would like and made sure we got all we wanted and more. This was truly the best experience.
