Captain Rick delivered a day trip that was as flexible as a flexible can be. We started off (6 passengers) by doing a morning tour of St. John. This included Caneel Bay, Hawksnest, Trunk, Cinnamon, Maho, Peter, Francis & Leinster Bays. Rick made sure to point out all the critical points along the way, such as information regarding the Rockefellers,... More

Capt. Rick knows his snorkeling and his lunch spots! We told him where we'd already been and what we'd like to see and he make it happen.Don't balk at the price. This will be the day of your vacation you remember most fondly! More

Rick was able to accommodate us with a last minute booking out of St. John and it was the best day of our vacation. He picked us up at the beach at Maho and on the boat in Maho bay, we worked out the itinerary together. He took us to some old favorite an introduced us to spots we had... More

Our family has made multiple trips on Lion in da Sun and each time has been better than the last! Last June, we spent a great day of snorkeling and relaxing with Rick. Captain Rick has a wealth of knowledge about the islands and took us to several new snorlkeling spots. Our girls always look forward to the day on... More

What a way to celebrate your 50th and the best part of the trip was the days spent on "Lion in da Sun." The islands themselves are spectacular but what made those beautiful days even more enjoyable was Capt. Rick. His boat is very clean and he made everyone feel very comfortable with his sense of humor and ability to... More
