The Melich Family in St. John U.S. Virgin Islands
Our wonderful guests enjoying another great day on the water with Captain Sam!
Valentine’s Day Sunset Ride
We enjoyed a romantic dinner on VIBE1 yesterday for Valentine’s Day. The seas were beautiful and the sunset colors bounced off the clouds from one end of the sky to the other. It was a peaceful low-key way to spend Valentine’s and we loved it!
Humpback Whales Back in the VI
The Humpback Whales are back in the Virgin Islands! They migrate down here in January and stay through the end of March to give birth in our warm waters.
While on charter yesterday, Sam heard one was spotted on the North-side of Tortola and rode over to check it out. There was a large pod of dolphin swimming with the whale but unfortunately they only saw the dolphins. Maybe next time!

Holidays in the Caribbean
The Virgin Islands is a wonderful place to spend the holidays. Even though it is warm everyone is filled with the spirit of the season AND we can go to the beach too!
Christmas in the Caribbean means guavaberry wine, johnny cakes and song lyrics such as “How will Santa get here? There are no reinder in my country, he’ll have to borrow me neighbor’s donkey!” Here is another Caribbean classic by King Obstinate called “Ma Ma Bake Your Johnny Cake”
.
Enjoy the season!
My Favorite Fish
Whenever we are snorkeling, I always look for the Queen Angelfish. She is bright yellow and blue and is spectacular in the water! This fish is shy though so if you find one keep a little distance and it should allow you to follow it around for a while as it feeds on the coral. Francis Point on St. John is a great place to spot one so tell Captain Sam you want to stop there!
