Sail Safaris is having a great
year. We have found a perfect
location right on the beach in Cruz Bay. Come down and see
us: Step off the passenger ferry on St John, USVI and our
boats are to your right and a short walk down the beach.
If we're out sailing just call the number on the banner
or grab a rack card from the dispaly rack. The best way to
arrange your trip is to book in advance.
Lots of visitors have discovered the best way to explore the beaches of
St John, The Virgin Islands National Park, and all the neighboring
islands is by Hobie Cat. I've had many groups sign up for a half day
only to sign up again for full days! That's the best compliment we
could ever hope for.
We have partnered with several booking agents or just call us, we'll
meet you on the beach. Everyone who has taken one of
our tours has loved it! I am collecting quotes
from thrilled guests.
Hopefully they'll go home and spread the word so that everyone gets to
experience a wild, fun ride aboard our boats.
Recent highlights include seeing massive green turtles come up for air
while sailing in Hawksnest Bay. I took a couple to the north side of
Congo Cay and we saw tropic birds nesting in the rocks. They
circled us with their long white tail feathers flying in the wind. Last
week we saw bottlenose dolphins right off the beach here in Cruz
Bay! And of course our usual visits from brown pelicans and yellow
footed boobys.
The full day tours continue to be our most popular.
There's something about
sailing up on a perfect coral sand beach, snorkeling with parrot fish,
and then having a picnic lunch under the palm trees that really wins
over our guests. More people are realizing how nice it is to
lounge on our trampoline and be cooled by
the splashing waves as we fly along to secret beaches where we are the
only ones around.
Our sailing lessons have been popular. The catamarans are so
responsive
and easy to sail. They also give instant feedback. I've had several
guests interested in sailing
experience
that they can use for their bigger sailboats back home.
I've also had many younger guests interested in learning to
sail.
Thanks to everyone who has helped Sail Safaris, especially Phil Gaines
at Hi Tech Signs who made
our incredible banners and signage, Rolando Garces who generously did
design work for our flyers, Pretlow at
Big Planet Adventure Outfitters who gives us advertising space and
bookings, Joe at Noah's Little Arks who welcomed us as a neighbor on
the beach, Arthur and Beth at Arawak Expeditions for their
invaluable help and friendship, Bob and the gang at Low
Key Watersports, and most of all my wife Mo who has given so much to our little enterprise, and
of course all our friends on St John
who have helped spread the word that a Hobie Cat Tour is the "best
thing you can do on your vacation."
