The Annaberg Sugar Plantation is a partially restored but the most intact sugar plantation in the Virgin Islands.

Then we head on for more sightseeing adventure on to The Caneel Bay Overlook. It was discovered and built by Laurence Rockefeller on 1956 while sailing on a family cruise. This luxurious hideaway is accessible only by boat/ferry and its beaches are widely considered to be among the best in the world.Enjoy beach time at Trunk Bay.

Hibiscus at StarFish Tours helped us arrange a very lastminute half-day private tour with a local driver, Douglas. We appreciate all the assistance, recommendations, and follow-up she provided as we were able to visit the National Park Visitor Center, Trunk Bay, Maho Beach, and the Annaberg Plantation Windmill the day before leaving the island. Douglas was very informative, accommodating, and professional and we essentially customized and made for a hop on/hop off tour.

What a great day! Capt Nate and Weezy were awesome. They knew the best snorkeling spots I’ve ever seen and we have been going to USVI for 20 years. So many turtles and lots of incredible fish. The boat is very comfortable and offered plenty of shade from the hot sun. Delightful! We’ll be back!

We did a sunset sail, but wish we would have done a longer duration! It was the perfect way to spend our last night on the island. Hunter and Jamie were super chill, nice and had the best rum punch! We loved sailing around, sipping drinks sitting on cozy bean bags on the bow, and having the sea all around you. Book this now!!!

Captain Mike was so awesome! We couldn't have asked for a better experience ! He answered all of my odd/curious questions- showed us some amazing places to snorkel! He told us a lot of funny stories, and aside of being a great captain, he may be an even better bar tender! I Wish we could go back once a week!

WOW! What a great way to spend an evening. My wife and I along with two other couples took the Sunset Sail. We couldn't have been more impressed. I was a little skeptical when I found their perfect five star review rating until we seen first hand what an amazing job Rob and Deb do. From the time we arrived until the time we stepped off the boat they made sure we were both safe and having fun. This crew is very personable and willing to engage in conversation or just let you enjoy the sail and sunset. Speaking of sailing, that's my new favorite thing. I had know idea how fun and relaxing sailing was. CPT Rob was happy to explain how the sailboat operated and would even let us work some of the components. Deb was always checking drinks and offering snacks, and was happy to take pictures for us. I can't recommend this team enough. Not only do I have a new love of sailing but I feel lucky to have met such a cool couple.

An absolute fantastic day of sailing with Rob and Deb on the Cosmos. Deb was wonderful and efficient in the booking and followup to have everything planned and worry free. We were served a gourmet lunch with Lumpo Crab cakes and fresh salad. Rob was great to chat with and historian of the USVI. Ive booked many sailboat cruises from Barbados, S Florida, Cayman Island, SF Bay, etc. This was the best one. Such great people to hang with for the day. Hope to Sail again soon. Could not imagine a better sailing trip out of St Thomas. Perhaps an invite to make the trip South in August?? :))

This was the best money I have spent on vacation!! Definitely do the whole day trip and make sure to bring lots of sunscreen. We had a group of 12 on the catamaran and our crew made sure all of our accommodations were met and more! We got to visit other beautiful islands and they took us to the best spots for snorkeling where we were able to see lots of sea life. Captain Splash and first mate Osay were absolutely outstanding and made sure we had the time of our life. Our first mate gave many tips and fun facts about the island, landmarks, and history which was very interesting, and also made sure we always had a drink in our hand and a smile on our face. I would definitely recommend booking with seas the day and will absolutely be back again!!
