Full-Day Small-Group Tour to Pig Beach by Powerboat

Highlights

  • See more of the Bahamas in less time—several island stops in one day

  • An activity-packed tour ideal for first-time visitors

  • Unobstructed views of the Exuma Cays from a boat at sea

Summary

Your morning starts when you meet your guide at the Nassau Paradise Island Ferry Terminal. Board a powerboat and set off for the Exumas, an archipelago of 365 tiny Bahamian islands and cays. After a sightseeing tour of the Exuma Cays from the water, stop at one of the small islands to see the Bahamian rock iguana in its natural habitat and watch a feeding demonstration. Then cruise to Pig Beach on Big Major Cay to see the Bahamas’ swimming pigs and splash around with them in the clear, waist-deep water. Next, stop for lunch (included) and then cruise to Compass Cay to swim with nurse sharks. That leaves just enough time to stop at a hidden beach or swim around a shallow sandbar before heading back to Nassau to end your tour.
