Overview

Step aboard to 36' Aquila luxury power catamaran designed for guests who want a comfortable and elevated way to explore the US Virgin Islands. With air conditioning, a shaded interior, spacious seating, and an on-board toilet, it's perfect for families, couples, and small groups seeking a private day on the water.

Most half-day charters focus on the North Shore of St. John, where you'll snorkel with sea turtles at Maho Bay, explore Virgin Islands National Park, visit beaches like Cinnamon Bay and Scott Beach, and finish the day at Christmas Cove with pizza from Pizza Pi.

Full-day charters allow more time for additional snorkelling, beach hopping, lunch at Lovango Cay, or a trip to Lime Out on St. John.

Your crew handles the drinks, snacks, snorkel gear, and logistics so you can focus on enjoying the islands. Whether you're swimming with sea turtles, relaxing in a quiet cove, or cruising to beautiful beaches, Bonus Time makes it easy to experience the best of St Thomas and St John.

Activity itinerary

Virgin Islands National Park (Pass by)

Our itineraries are designed to showcase the best of the Virgin Islands while making the most of your time on the water. The timeline below is a sample itinerary based on a typical day, but every charter is private and fully customisable. If there are specific destinations, beaches, snorkelling spots, or restaurants you'd like to visit, we're happy to work with you to create a route that fits your group and the day's conditions.

Trunk Bay Beach (Pass by)

We’ll cruise past Trunk Bay so you can see its famous beach from the water. It’s a great photo stop with soft sand and bright blue water.

Cinnamon Bay (Pass by)

As we pass Cinnamon Bay, you’ll see one of the longest beaches on the island. It’s a wide, open bay that’s beautiful to look at from the boat.

Waterlemon Cay

This is a great place to snorkel and maybe spot more sea life. The water is usually calm, and nearby you can see the old Annaberg Sugar Plantation ruins from shore.

Maho Bay

This is one of the best spots to swim with sea turtles. The water is calm and clear, and it’s a great place to hop in and snorkel or just float and relax.

Scott Bay Beach

Scott Bay Beach is one of St. John’s best-kept secrets and a favourite stop on many of our charters. Accessible only by boat, this quiet stretch of shoreline offers crystal-clear water, excellent snorkelling, and a level of seclusion that’s hard to find elsewhere in the Virgin Islands. While the North Shore beaches attract most of the crowds, Scott Bay remains a true hidden gem where guests can swim, float, and relax in a peaceful setting surrounded by untouched natural beauty.

Lovango Cay, U.S. Virgin Islands

We often stop at Lovango Beach Club for lunch. There’s a nice restaurant right by the water, and you can also snorkel nearby if you’d like.

Christmas Cove

This is where you’ll find Pizza Pi, the floating pizza boat. It’s a fun place to grab a bite, snorkel one more time, or just relax at anchor before heading back.
