St Thomas & Nausau & San Juan excursion

Looking for recommendations - we want to do something involving the beach and the water. We were looking at the St John Beach Tour, The Turtle Cove sailing and the Buck Island Sailing. Any recommendations? We would like to see some of the island views but would rather not do a land based tour
On Nausau, I really did want to do some sailing but I don't see any excursions for this.
Since we've been to Nausau and really did not like it, what is there to do other than staying on the ship.
And lastly I didn't see any decent excursions in San Juan. What to do there?
We're looking at the Century eastern carribean cruise in February.

One of the best ship tours (or private) is the Champagne Catarmaran tour at St. Thomas. I don't know if Celebrity offers it, but you may be able to check it out on-line. USVI.com may help. At SJ, If you just want beach, a taxi can take you to the Isle Verde in front of the Wyndham El San Juan hotel or another public access area. Old San Juan is a great walking port. You cross the street, catch the free trolley and go all the way up to the fortress El Morro or walk along the Princessa (public gardens and park). Pick up a walking map at the Pink Tourist Information center. If you haven't been to Atlantis Resort & Casino, you may want to check it out in Nassau. February, it is still a little cool in the Bahama's, so planning any beach activity may not work out. A taxi is $4 pp each way to Atlantis. You can tour the hotel inside on your own, but a $25 tour of the Dig is a great way to see this man made aquarium. Access to the outside pool and beach area is prohibited, but you may be able to get out there if you are persistent.
Bon voyage
