2 Hr – Swim with The Pigs & Snorkel
What a wonderful experience. The boat was older but it didn't matter, it did have two canopy's and we all stayed shaded. We went to a private beach to play with the pigs. That was amazing! Then we went out to an area to snorkel. That was even better. The ocean was beautiful and clear and we had a wonderful time. There were six of us in our party and for the time spent at both locations was plenty. The cost was much lower than if we had bought an excursion through our cruise ship. But the privacy, the not rushing, the hands on experience made this the absolutely best part of our Christmas cruise. We could have not asked for a better Captain who served us Rum Punch and had Chips and Salsa available after we snorkeled. Would definitely do again.

4 Hr – Swimming With Turtles
I booked the 3 hour turtle excursion on BoatBooker. Captain Anton reached out to me immediately to greet me and ask if we had any special requests. Upon arrival, I did have a bit of trouble finding the meeting point location, but Captain Anton, was available via text. Shortly thereafter, we met our Capital & Mate, PM who would be our guides for the day. PM got in the water with us to help look for mama & baby turtles that were frequent visitors of Rose Island. Our captain was great with pointing out their movement from above. We were delighted when we asked if we could stop to see the pigs,and our Captain said it was no problem. He adjusting the course in our way back to the dock. And for a spall fee to the Pig Island keepers, we has about 30 minutes to feed and swim with these cool animals. From there, we were served some delicious island punch as we made our way back the Nassau. Highly recommend!

Great experience and awesome explanation during our trip. The crew’s attention was excellent. To improve the instructions or visible indications for the meeting point. Other than that we were a large group of 8 and we all enjoyed our trip.
