Hi! We’re Andrew and Laura – two professional scuba divers, sailors, outdoor enthusiasts, and ocean adventurers. Join us as we share wild stories, ocean views, and useful tips with you from under (and above) the sea!

Welcome to the US Virgin Islands! We live here on St. Thomas and I (Andrew) am a USCG Captain! Currently, I'm working for the dive shop (Red Hook Dive Center) in the video! (Conflict of interest alert?!)
As for Laura, she's in school studying mangrove restoration within the Marine Science program at the University of the Virgin Islands. It's been a wild ride since we've moved here in 2021!
With that said, the diving is fantastic here. Beautiful coral reefs, crystal blue waters, and plenty of marine life. Additionally, St. Thomas (and nearby St. John) offer unique structural dive sites found no where else the world.
Canyons, lava tubes, and rock formations provide an endless labyrinth of underwater exploration. You can dive here for weeks straight and never see the same thing twice (given you find the right dive operator).
On this day, we visited a popular dive site near Christmas Cove and Great St. James on the south side of St. Thomas: Straggler's Reef. Our second dive site was in nearby Jersey Bay, called Castle Reef. Most dive operations on the island visit Straggler's Reef but only Red Hook Dive Center visit Castle Reef.
