My wife and I, along with two friends took a full day tour with Arawak Expeditions through Hurricane Hole in the Coral Reef National Monument on St. John. All of us agreed that this was by far the highlight of our vacation. Although it involved several miles of kayaking, our guide made sure that the trip was at a pace... More

Two of us enjoyed Arawak Expeditions Adventure week the last week of February 2012. Actually, the entire experience was more than we had hoped for: transportation to and from ferry dock, with gracious offer to stop by for staples on the way to camp, coordination of activities in an interactive format based on our interests, all meals and lodging supplied...

My husband and I did a full day trip with Arawak and it was without a doubt one of the highlights of our time on St. John. Our guide was professional and helpful, actually jury rigging a broken rudder on one of the kayaks during the trip so that it worked. We paddled to Lovango Cay and snorkeled at a... More

We did a 1/2 day kayak and snorkel trip with our guide Scott. It ended up being just the 3 of us 'cause it was a drizzly & windy day, but we didn't mind. We paddled out of Cruz Bay to Honeymoon Beach where we left the kayaks. We snorkeled for an hour plus, and saw the most amazing underwater... More

My husband and I signed on for a 5-day sea kayaking trip with Arawak Expeditions on a recent trip to St. John, USVI. We were looking for an active vacation, but are not experienced sea kayakers. The itinerary proposed by Arawak was interesting and fun. It included four nights of camping, two on a deserted beach and two at a... More

The 5 day kayaking and camping excursion was worth every penny. The website is a bit short on details, but basically you spend 5 days in the British Virgin Islands. There are three meals that you eat out that aren't included in the trip as well as the last two nights you spend in a campground with a bar, in... More

My wife and I went on a three hour kyak tour with Thomas. Had a great time and saw some incredible sights. He was knowledgeable and patient. Well worth the time and money! More

My family’s kayaking trip with you a few Decembers ago is still something we talk about and remember fondly. Absolutely superb scenery, boats, coaching, tour and so on. I’m not sure, but Lovango might be heaven. The kids – one of whom is in college now – still talk about our trip to St. John as the best we’ve ever... More

What a an eye-opener! Having never kayaked and only a few hours of snorkeling under our belts, we had a blast with this trip. We feel in love with St. John and the Virgin Islands four years ago on our first trip but after this snorkeling/kayaking trip we found another reason to be heart-broken when we aren't in St. John....

Arawak Expeditions specializes in sea kayak trips and In -shore fishing with flys or lures. We spent half a day with Captain Arthur in-shore fishing. I think it was a fairly light day of fishing with six fish caught and released (and one Grey Boobie), but we had a great day trolling around the Cays around St John, in beautiful... More
