Nassau 3-Islands: Swimming Pigs, Sea Turtles & Snorkel Lunch

A legendary Bahamian triple: swim with wild swimming pigs at Rose Island, drift alongside sea turtles in crystal waters, then snorkel a vibrant reef before a fresh seafood lunch at a private beach club. Genuinely unmissable.

What to expect

Step aboard a sleek catamaran at Nassau Harbour and head first to a secluded sandbar where the Bahamas' famous swimming pigs wade out to greet you — bring carrots from the boat for an unforgettable close encounter. Next, your captain anchors at a coral-rich turtle feeding ground where snorkel gear is provided and a guide leads you through the reef. The day ends with an open-bar beach lunch at a private Paradise Island beach club, with hammocks, lounge chairs, and the Atlantic glittering in front of you.
