I will be travelling to STJ in about 3 weeks and was thinking about renting a dinghy for a day - there will be 2 women and 2 men. I have a few questions though. First, about how much will is cost for a full-day rental? Where is the best place to rent from? Do they give you a quick lesson on how to operate the boat? Any must-see beaches/snorkelling spots? Thanks much for your help!! Can't wait to get there!

Lets see, approximately $135 for 12ft or $170 for 14ft for a full day. Noah's Little Arks (Cruz Bay) or Crabby's (Coral Bay) seem to be the most popular. I believe they will have you watch a short (10 min) instruction video. From what I'm told, you get a lovely and much different perspective visiting by dinghy. You may come across a secret cove and you can snorkel Waterlemon without the hike. This info is based off of my own research as we are planning on a dinghy day in June. And yes, there are lots of dinhgy posts to read through. Good Luck!
