Island Dog private powerboat trips from St. John

Bring your favourite playlist and make a day of exploring. Island Dog offers private full-day outings, with space to spread out and a captain to help plan snorkeling, swimming and island stops around your group.

What to expect

A six-hour St. John circumnavigation is one advertised option. Other USVI or BVI plans need arranging in advance and depend on conditions. Salty Dog currently advertises trips bookable from late 2026; check your date before building other holiday plans around it.

The boat takes up to twelve guests and has a shaded cabin area, swim platform and ladder. Discuss boarding and water access if anyone needs assistance.

What is included?

Captain, an iced cooler and limited flotation noodles are listed. The website gives mixed instructions about snorkel gear, so confirm sizes and availability or bring your own. Fuel has an included running-time allowance; extra use is charged separately. Check the final quote for gratuity and fees.

What to bring

  • Swimwear, towels, hats and non-aerosol mineral sunscreen.
  • Pre-chilled drinks and snacks in soft bags.
  • Snorkel gear unless its provision is confirmed, plus cash for agreed extras.
  • For a BVI booking: valid passports and required documents.

Guest reviews of the charter company

Our family of 5 (mom, dad and three boys) had an excellent day on the water with Kelly and Stephen. They are both very knowledgeable about the island and took great care of us. We had a blast snorkeling, swimming, eating and cruising. The boat is beautiful and the service was amazing. I highly recommend hanging out with this crew for the day!

Had the best trip on the water with Captain Ivan on Two Thumbs Up. We traveled around the St. John’s island learned lots of history along with visiting beautiful beaches and snorkeling and seeing turtles and lunch at lime out. Couldn’t have asked for a better day on the water. Salty Dog was very easy to communicate with from start to finish.
