Captain Chris was wonderful!! We had an amazing time exploring private beaches, swimming with turtles and in the reef, and drinking rum punch. It was a memorable day and Captain Chris was great! Highly recommend.

It is a bit of a walk (not too far) from the cruise port to the meeting place. Definitely look at the directions to the meeting location before you get off the cruise to know where to go. Took us about 10 minutes to get off the ship and walk to the meeting location.

Today’s trip with the one and only Captain Chris was an absolute treat and real highlight of our trip.

Chris took us to some exceptional snorkelling spots - truly beautiful! Then the day ended with a chance to snorkel with turtles - an experience we’ll never forget!

Chris was helpful and attentive and always kept an eye for our safety in the water etc. He was also very mindful to let us know about the environment and the animals we were interacting with - to make sure we weren’t disturbing them. It absolutely did not detract from our enjoyment at all! In fact it’s good to know that the wildlife isn’t disturbed by our presence!

10/10 would recommend

This boat tour was hands-down the highlight of my entire trip to Nassau! From the moment we set out on the sparkling turquoise water, it felt like we were in a dream. The crew was incredible—fun, professional, and full of local knowledge that made the day even more special. The ride itself was smooth and scenic, with jaw-dropping views of the islands. But the true magic? Meeting the iconic swimming pigs! Feeding and swimming alongside them was surreal, hilarious, and totally unforgettable. We also stopped at postcard-perfect shallow banks, snorkeled in crystal-clear water, and soaked in the sunshine on the open sea. It was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. If you’re in the Bahamas and don’t book this tour—you’re seriously missing out!

This was the highlight of our stay here in Nassau, it was a day we will never forget. The captain put us on a great reef to snorkel where we saw lots of turtles and some conch. We also got to spend time on private beaches where we were the only ones there - my favorite part.  The rum punch was so delicious, I’m still begging for the recipe (lol). The boat was clean and spacious! He also gave us great recommendations for our time in the island. This was totally worth every penny! Great value, this trip exceeded our expectations. Captain Chris gave us more than we could have asked for. Everything was perfect. Thanks again for an amazing time!

I wanted to treat my girlfriend to a well deserved treat of a private boat excursion after working hard all year. After doing much research, I came across North Shore Tours and they were very helpful in helping to book and plan this tour. We had to reschedule our original date to two days later due to weather and they were very accommodating as well with that. We got to the site where they told us to meet the boat and while it was a little confusing, there were people there to help us find our boat as well as our very helpful cab driver. We met captain Chris and he was an absolute pleasure! Before taking off we discussed a few places we wanted to go and said we would like a spot with few people and he fulfilled every request and then some for us. The snorkeling was amazing, Captain Chris did the best job going exactly where we wanted to go, and he even made one of the best rum punches we have ever had. He entertained us with great music aboard and was just an all around great guy. My girlfriend and I were able to fully enjoy all the spots, relax on the beach of an island or two by ourselves without anyone on it, and have a trip we will never forget. We will definitely be coming back and traveling with Captain Chris again and using North Shore Tours!
