Virgin Islands Ecotours | Enjoy USVI Tours: Kayak, Hike & Snorkel

Whether you’re on the island for a full week, or simply passing through for the day off of a cruise ship, we highly recommend getting up close and personal with St. Thomas’ unique flora and fauna. The magic of our tropical environment is something the whole family will appreciate and remember long after your holiday in the sun is over.

We offer several tours, ranging in length, that will immerse your family in our ecologically diverse mangrove lagoon on St. Thomas. Tours include a combination of hiking, snorkeling, and kayaking, and can be customized to accommodate the ages and abilities of your kiddos. Some of our tours even include lunch!

All of our tours are led by expertly trained guides who are passionate about St. Thomas’ land and sea-scapes. They love answering questions and providing interesting island factoids to our most inquisitive guests.

Here are just a few of the things your family may see on your eco tour:

– Tropical plant species such as sea grapes, passion flowers, papaya trees, and more

– Sea birds such as pelicans, herons, gulls, and more

– Marine life such as sting rays, tarpon, sea turtles, fiddler crabs, and more

– Tidal pools

– A deserted island, Cas Cay

– A geological blowhole

– Volcanic cliffs

We’re big believers that the best island days are spent in and around the water, and the waters of the mangrove lagoon are brimming with life. St. Thomas’ abundant plants and animals never fail to enchant the whole family. We hope to see you in the lagoon soon!

Our Favorite St. John Photo Ops

By Chrissann Nickel • March 27, 2025

St. John is an incredibly picturesque island. Those white sand beaches, the sparkling aquamarine water, and those dramatic green hillsides… both locals and visitors alike can’t resist pulling out their phones to snap one more picture, again and again. And don’t get us started on those Virgin Islands sunsets! Whether you’re a first time visitor to the island, or will be coming back soon on your 36th annual vacation, every trip to STJ is special—and every trip is worth commemorating with fresh photos. One of our newest experiences that we’re excited to offer is our Private Photoshoot Tour . On it, you’ll be matched with a talented professional photographer who will take you to some of St. John’s most stunning photo ops and take photos of you that are 1,000x better in framing, lighting, and style than those your well-meaning taxi driver took for you off the side of the road (he tried his best, but… we said what we said ;) ). In celebration of this new tour, we thought we would share some of our personal favorite photography spots on St. John. Here they are, in no particular order:
