Private Catamaran Sail to St. John: Trunk Bay & Snorkel

Charter a luxury catamaran exclusively for your group and sail to the pristine shores of St. John's national park, anchoring at the legendary Trunk Bay for world-class snorkeling and a champagne lunch.

What to expect

Your private catamaran departs Crown Bay Marina with chilled Champagne and a fully stocked galley. The 45-minute sail across Pillsbury Sound delivers you to Trunk Bay, whose underwater snorkel trail is protected by the US National Park Service — among the clearest water in the Caribbean. Fin through a kaleidoscope of parrotfish and elkhorn coral before returning to the deck for a gourmet lunch prepared on board. The afternoon can be shaped entirely to your wishes — a second anchorage, paddleboarding, or simply drifting in perfect silence.
