Wil was the best experience of our cruise. We had an absolute blast! We had a group of 10 that can’t stop talking about our day. Wil even found a member lost Apple Watch. Great times, great people, unbelievable trip highlight day.

I highly recommend booking with Captain Will! Everything about the experience was exactly as advertised. Captain Will is accommodating, hospitable, and extremely knowledgeable about the island. He and his son made sure our family of 10 had an incredible day on the water. The entire experience felt seamless from start to finish—he was prompt, responsive during the booking process, and ensured we traveled to and from our destination safely. The boat was well-equipped, even with a speaker for us to play our favorite music. Captain Will went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. When I return to Antigua, I’ll definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommended!

We booked this excursion in advance and had a great time with captain Wil. We went to 2 beaches and then per our request he anchored at a deep area of the bay so that we could dive off the boat. The boat is as advertised and a great value for the price. Most of all he made sure that we all had fun and returned at our pick up location safely. 10 out of 10 I would definitely book again.

My family’s Antigua adventure reached new heights today, all thanks to Will! He guided us to the stunning vistas of Antigua Beach, where the views were nothing short of spectacular. Will’s incredible knowledge of the local culture and landscape made the trip even more enriching. He’s not just an amazing guide but also a genuinely wonderful person—patient, friendly, and full of fascinating insights. This has undoubtedly been the highlight of our trip so far. We can’t wait for our next ride with him. Thank you Will for an unforgettable experience!

Our adventure with Will was outstanding! We had a large family group ages 18-65 and everyone had a fantastic time. The boat was plenty big for all of us. We snorkeled, swam, stopped for lunch at a restaurant along the beach and enjoyed the gorgeous scenery. Will was very accomdating and shared a lot of interesting info about the island .

Thanks to Will for a beautiful afternoon. He was always quick to reply to messages during the booking process, and was on time and ready for us on the day-of. He definitely went above and beyond to make our day, taking us out all afternoon instead of just the budgeted 4 hours. We got dinner and ate it on the boat while watching the sunset and went all the way to Rendezvous Bay which was our request, no problem for Willl! Would highly recommend booking if you’re in Antigua. Great times!!
