The experience
You arrive at Low Key Watersports, St. John's only PADI 5 Star Dive Center, and the divemaster gears you up with all the equipment included: tank, regulator, BCD, wetsuit if you need it. The boat leaves for the first site, and you descend into reef habitat where the depth and current let you move slowly enough to see what lives there. Most dives run between 30 and 80 feet, the range where the light still reaches and the pressure stays manageable for a morning of exploration.
After the first dive, the boat moves to a second site (often on the opposite shore or around one of the outlying islands), and you drop again. The divemaster stays with the group the whole time, pointing out what to look for and keeping the pace steady. The whole outing runs about three hours from start to finish, which means you're back on land by early afternoon with the rest of your day still open.
Low Key has been running these dives for over 30 years, and their sister company operates the largest powerboat fleet in St. John, so the logistics are locked in: no hunting for transport, no scrambling to rent gear. You show up certified, and everything else is arranged.
Is this one for you?Book this if you're certified and want to see what the reefs around St. John actually hold: the two-site format and the divemaster's knowledge of local conditions mean you spend your time underwater instead of organizing the dive yourself. If you're not certified, the snorkeling option on the same boat lets you join without the gear or the training.

What depth will I be diving to on the reef sites around St. John?

Will there be a guide in the water with us, or do we dive on our own?
A PADI divemaster leads all dives and stays with the group the entire time, pointing out marine life and keeping the pace steady.
Can I snorkel instead of diving if I'm not certified?

Meet at Low Key Watersports in St. John. The exact departure time is confirmed when you book, and public transportation options are available nearby if you need them.
