Why Book All Three Instead of One

Most Bahamas day trips make you choose: the swimming pigs, the reef, or the beach. This all-inclusive Nassau day trip is the one where you don't. Swim with the famous pigs, snorkel a vibrant coral reef, enjoy a Bahamian lunch under the palms, then spend the rest of the afternoon exactly how you want.

Your Experience, Start to Finish

From check-in on Paradise Island to one last view from the lighthouse, here’s how your day unfolds.

Step 1 | 10:45AM
Check in on Paradise Island Meet us at the Paradise Island Ferry Terminal, East Dock, just behind Margaritaville. Look for our team in yellow and we’ll take it from there. Staying on Paradise Island? You may be able to walk. Coming from elsewhere in Nassau? A quick taxi ride will get you to the dock.
Step 2 | 11:00AM
Cruise across turquoise water Your island escape starts with a scenic 25-minute cruise across Nassau Harbour. Watch the water shift through every shade of blue as the city disappears behind you. When the Pearl Island lighthouse comes into view, you’ll know you’ve arrived somewhere special.
Step 3
Discover the Reef Mask, snorkel, fins and vest are all provided and fitted for you. The reef begins less than 50 feet from shore, so there’s no long swim before the good part. Follow your guide in a small group and discover colourful coral and marine life you might otherwise glide straight past. Snorkelers must be 8 or older and comfortable in the water. Prefer to stay dry? The beach is waiting.
Step 4
Meet, feed, swim and take pictures with the pigs Step into the warm, crystal-clear shallows and meet the Bahamas’ famous swimming pigs up close. With your guide beside you, feed them from your hand, watch them paddle through the water, splash alongside them and capture the photos you came for. They’re curious, friendly and very comfortable in front of a camera.
Step 5
Taste the Bahamas Back on Pearl Island, lunch is served under the palms. Enjoy freshly prepared grouper with traditional peas and rice, BBQ chicken and coleslaw cooked right here on the island. Grab a cold drink from the bar, find some shade and take your time. There’s nowhere else you need to be.
Step 6
Make the afternoon yours From here, there’s no schedule. Grab a kayak or paddleboard, explore both beaches, stretch out in the shade or climb to the top of the lighthouse for sweeping 360-degree views across the turquoise sea. Do as much, or as little, as you like.
Step 7 | 3:30PM
One Last View, Then Back to Nassau Before you leave, take in those final island views and one more look from the lighthouse. Then settle in for the scenic cruise back to Nassau, sun-kissed, camera roll full and with a little bit of Pearl Island still on your mind.

"We couldn't decide between the pigs and the reef. Turns out you don't have to."

MarcusFamily of four

"The lunch alone would have cost this much in Nassau, and the island was far quieter than the port."

"The kids talked about the pigs the whole flight home. My husband snorkelled twice."
