Swimming Pigs · Exuma
◷ Exuma Cays · From Nassau
The famous one. A full-day private charter run to Big Major Cay where the pigs swim out to greet you. Lunch on a sandbar, three snorkel stops, and back by sundown.
Private charters and small-group tours from a family-run captain crew that knows where the pigs swim, where the snorkeling is glass-clear, and which sandbar the sunset hits first. Five minutes from the cruise port.

◷ Rose Island · 25 min from port
A short cruise to a private slice of Rose Island. Snorkel a reef wall, lounge with a fruit-rum punch, then back to port in time for dinner.
◷ 3 stops · Reefs & wrecks
Three signature snorkel sites our captains chose for clarity and marine life — coral gardens, a shipwreck, and a turtle hangout. Gear, instruction, and reef-safe sunscreen included.
◷ Nassau Harbour · Champagne aboard
Champagne, conch, calm water, and the most photographed two hours in Nassau. Departs at golden hour, returns at lights-on.
◷ Private group · Up to 16 guests
A 4-hour private charter for the bachelorette / birthday / "we earned it" crowd. Drinks on, music up, captain knows the best sandbar to anchor for photos.
◷ Pearl Island & Rose · 2 hrs
For cruise guests on a short window: meet the pigs at our partner sanctuary, snorkel the reef, and we'll have you back on the gangway with two hours to spare.
◷ Allen Cay · Private charter
A full-day run to Allen Cay where prehistoric rock iguanas meet you at the shoreline. Add a sandbar stop, a snorkel, and conch salad cut on the bow.
◷ Eleuthera · Pink sands
A long day, but the right one. Spanish Wells for the fishing village, Harbour Island for the pink-sand beach, and home before the harbour lights blink on.
◷ Nassau-based · Pearl Island
The bite-sized version. One hour, one objective: get you a photo with the world-famous pigs and back to your hotel before your tee time.
We've built every cruise-guest tour around the all-aboard deadline. Our dock is a 5-minute walk from Nassau Cruise Port — no taxi, no missing the ship. Tell us your sail-away time at booking and we route the day around it.
See Cruise-Friendly ToursOur long-range workhorse. Built for the Exuma run — fast, dry, and shaded.
Our party-boat flagship. Bluetooth speakers fore and aft, swim platform, shaded bow.
The long-haul. Eleuthera and Harbour Island in a single day, in comfort.
Smaller, nimbler, and our go-to for the half-day Rose Island runs.
Our sunset specialist. Slow, smooth, and built around a champagne bar.
Couples, small families, and quick pigs runs for cruise guests on the clock.
Festival Place, slip 4. Five minutes from the cruise terminal, ten from Atlantis. We do the paperwork and the safety brief while you grab a coffee from the kiosk.
Out past Paradise Island, into the Tongue of the Ocean. Captain narrates if you want, lets you nap if you don't. Music on or off — your boat, your rules.
Pigs, reef, sandbar, sunset — whichever you booked. We stay long enough for you to actually enjoy it, not long enough to bake. Lunch served on board.
Captain calls your tender 30 minutes before all-aboard if you're a cruise guest. We get the photo dump to your phone before you walk off the dock.
Most of our work is private. Build the day around your group, your timing, your sandbar. We'll handle the rest — captain, mate, fuel, gear, lunch, and the photos. You bring the swimsuit.
Capt. Renaldo took us to four spots none of the bigger tours hit. We swam with three sea turtles, a nurse shark, and got back with our drinks still cold. Best $1,900 we've spent.
I booked this for my husband's 50th not knowing if it was worth the price. Twenty minutes in he turned to me and said "this is the best day of my life." We have not stopped talking about it.
Got off the ship at 8:30, was swimming with pigs at 9:40, back on board with two hours to spare. They had us on the dock the second we walked through Festival Place. Wizard-level logistics.

For peak season (Dec–Apr), 2–3 weeks ahead is safe. Same-week is possible most weeks — call us, sometimes we have a captain free we haven't listed yet. Cruise guests should book before sailing.
Our captains call it. If we cancel for weather, you get a full refund or a free reschedule — your choice. We will never sail you in unsafe conditions, and we don't pretend the weather is fine to keep your deposit.
Yes. Every boat carries USCG-approved life jackets in toddler through adult sizes, and the captains love a good first-snorkel tutorial. Pigs in particular are a hit with kids 4+.
Never has happened, never will. Tell us your all-aboard time at booking and our captains build the route to land you back with a 60-minute cushion minimum. Our dock is a 5-minute walk from Festival Place.
Captain, mate, fuel, snorkel gear (mask, fins, vest), reef-safe sunscreen, fresh fruit, water and soft drinks. Sunset & party-boat tours include alcohol. Lunch is included on all 4+ hour tours.
That's our specialty. Email charters@bahamaswatertoys.com with your group, dates, and the experience you have in mind. A captain (not a booking bot) writes you back within 24 hours with a route and quote.
