SKYRIDE TO PARADISE POINT

Take in the view on the scenic Skyride to Paradise Point. The Skyride takes you approximately 700 feet above sea level to one of the most spectacular views in the Caribbean! Enjoy a panoramic view of the harbor, cruise ships and the hillside town of Charlotte Amalie. The round-trip Skyride ride is 15 minutes, leaving plenty of time at the top for relaxing with a frozen drink or lunch. Don’t miss the performing parrots at the free tropical bird show. The Skyride is located directly across the street from the Havensight Mall. Come at your leisure, as the Skyride runs continuously.

SEA BLASTER SPEEDBOAT & SNORKEL TOUR  Approximate Duration: 3 1/2 hours 

Board Sea Blaster, a 70-foot powerboat specifically designed for snorkel excursions. Enjoy an exhilarating, sometimes wet ride around the coast of St. Thomas and anchor at Fish Island, a beautiful cove between St. John and St. Thomas, to either snorkel with the colorful tropical fish, view underwater coral, or just swim in the crystal clear water. After snorkeling, unlimited complimentary Caribbean rum punch and snacks are served. This tour is ideal for beginning and advanced snorkelers.
