My husband and I had a great time snorkeling, and sailing on the catamaran. My favorite part was the piggy’s! There was an extra $30 charge per person for that but so worth it 🐷 the crew was friendly and helpful. I liked the lunch it was a noodle dish with a local flair.

Overall, a nice tour with friendly guides

Dusty_S, Apr 2024

Our guides gave us clear instructions on meeting point and arrived on time for our tour. They were all friendly and made sure to make friendly conversation with each group on board throughout the day. The food was fresh, from scratch, and delicious. They had plenty for everyone, and our kids each had 2nds. I'd recommend the tour to anyone, including couples and families with littles. Our only issue, and it was no fault of our tour guides, was the pigs at pig beach on Rose Island. The pigs were aggressive with each other, competing for food. There was a mama pig with engorged teets that was especially aggressive, probably because she was breastfeeding the babies we saw running around. She would lunge at and head swipe the other pigs. Two different pigs bit my 4 yr old daughter on each of her arms. After the first bite, we took the food from her to prevent it, but another pig approached our group and bit my daughter and nudged her even though she wasn't holding any food; she was near enough and an easy target. So, that part of the trip was stressful and felt unsafe. I write here only to warn others that may have smaller kids. The pigs pursue the littles as easy targets. Perhaps the pigs are underfed, or the entire concept makes them behave this way. Either way, please be careful.

Well worth the price, the reviews don’t lie!

Shenequa_B, Apr 2024

Everything was great from the hosts to the food to the snorkeling and the pigs. Waters were a bit choppy but we still got to see some beautiful fish and coral while snorkeling. The pigs were super cute and friendly as well. 10/10 would recommend and do it again!

Cruising the coast

Meredith_H, Apr 2024

Great boat! Amazing staff. It was a beautiful day spent on the ocean. We were slightly delayed getting off our cruise boat and they called to check on us and see if we were okay.

Dear Guests, Thank you very much for your kind review.

Great day in the Bahamas!

Robin_H, Apr 2024

Great day on the water! Beautiful boat, great crew, saw 3 large sea turtles while swimming to the shore of Green Cay- we may have been the only ones who went to shore; snorkeling was nice off Rose island- saw several kinds of fish but didn't actually go onto the island (if that matters to you). We were served a chicken and pasta dish for lunch which was good, nothing gourmet but good. The pigs were a fun attraction with the kids! But know that they are not wild but rather raised for this tourists activity, ie. very commercialized. We enjoyed the smooth and relaxing catamaran and would definitely rec it to anybody looking to see several places in 1 day. Just book it! You won't be sorry!

Fun and memorable

Andrea_B, Mar 2024

This was a fun and memorable day facilitated by good organization and a great crew. The boat wasn’t overcrowded, went at a nice pace, and the crew gave the necessary instructions and made sure everyone had what they needed while otherwise being pretty hands-off. Music wasn’t overly obtrusive either, which we appreciated. The snorkeling spots were cool (esp the reef one — so many cool fish!), and getting to feed the pigs was a highlight of our trip. The pig experience was well-run, and the pigs seemed well cared-for. Despite being the only vegetarian aboard, the chef was super nice and happily cooked up a separate veg sauce for me for lunch. The crew even helped people get cabs from the marina at the end of the experience. Perhaps the only thing I would suggest is giving a bit of background info about the environment and animals we were seeing. If you’re looking to experience the beauty and fun of the Bahamas with ease, good value, and a solid crew, I’d highly recommend this excursion.

Dear Andrea, Thank you very much for your great review.

The best end to my trip to Nassau!

Hope_B, Mar 2024

Such an incredible experience! My friends and I had a hard time choosing a booking for snorkeling because there are so many and we didn’t want to get scammed. This one had the best reviews so we decided to give it a try. It completely exceeded our expectations. The boat is beautiful, the lunch was delicious, and there are complimentary drinks. The pigs cost extra, but it’s totally worth it. This is for sure a must do for any visit to Nassau. Thanks so much to the crew for a memorable end to our trip!

Amazing Tour & Guides

Alejandra_R, Mar 2024

Justin and Geo made this experience great! Swimming/snorkeling with turtles and all kinds of fish on the corral reefs! They took us to the Pig Island which was such a great experience! Being able to feed the pigs on the beach and watching them swim was so eventful! Lunch was provided and was cooked on the boat and it was yummy! Towards the end of the experience, Justin jumped into the ocean to grab a starfish and allow the tourists to take pictures and hold the starfish and kindly explained how starfish are put back into the water in order for them to land accordingly. This experience was phenomenal and I would definitely recommend!

Good time cruising!

Michael_B, Feb 2024

Great crew. Nice space. Good lunch. Good value overall. Found nice spots to stop and swim. The boat wasn't too crowded and the music wasn't too loud. Low key and relaxing.

Great afternoon on the water!

Dawn_P, Feb 2024

Had a great time with this crew! The boat out to the turtles was beautiful as was the trip to the fish reef! So many beautiful fish and they stopped in a perfect spot! Lunch was good, not five star dining but have to admit the veggie burger they had was one of the best I’ve ever had (want the recipe good!). Had so much fun going to pig island and feeding the piggies! It was a great afternoon and a great group of guys!

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Dear Dawn, Thank you very much for your review. We are pleased to hear that the team was able to help you enjoying tour.

A great time

Great snorkeling, nice boat, friendly staff, good hamburger lunch, excellent time. It was a bit expensive, but then so is everything in the Bahamas.

Great Day on the Water

Andrew_S, Jan 2024

This is a great way to spend the day out on, and in, the water. Some good snorkeling opportunities with many fish and turtles to see. The stop by the island with swimming pigs may incur an extra cost. I don't know what it actually costs based on some operator conversations I overheard, but be prepared by bringing extra cash along. Still a fun thing to do with the added expense (less expensive regardless than otherwise similar excursion options) plus a chance to get some pictures with some cute swimming pigs. Overall, recommended.

Catherine_M, Jun 2023

Loved that it was a semi private catamaran. Did not like that there was no ice available so we had to drink the warm water that operator provided. Also felt a bit deceived when after we boarded they told us that if we wanted to actually participate w/pigs it was $35 per person extra. Also the reef they took us too had little fish

Response from Host, Jun 2023
