In our travels to St John we have used Kekoa twice to snorkel and explore the BVI. More specifically Jost, Indians, and Willy-T. We have never felt rushed. They can take I believe 25 or so.

Huge Kekoa fan for getting to JVD if you are looking for snorkeling and some beach bar time. If you are looking for strictly exploring Jost, we would do the ferry and catch a taxi from the Ferry Dock to either White Bay or the other end of Jost where Foxy's Taboo and the bubbly pool are. Better yet,...

Pickles, you rock! Your pictures amazing and your stories the best! Thanks for sharing. Someday, I would like to snorkel and photograph with you!

Great photos, great report! Thanks for sharing!
