The activity itself was very good, and we had an enjoyable trip over on the boat. and swimming with pigs beware you should use sea shoes for the sea as there is hard rocks where you will do the feeding pigs experience. However, unfortunately, when it was time to have the food provided for the return journey and snorkelling trip, there was no food available for us. we were advised that our food orders should have been taken When we checked in at the office that morning. Unfortunately, this was not done, and as a result, our party of eight were left without food. This was very disappointing and put a dampener on what had otherwise been a good experience. I would appreciate it if this could be looked into, as the issue could have been easily avoided had our orders been taken as advised.

Would book again when I visit the Bahamas
I had a great time and it was definitely a highlight of my trip! I would recommend the 4 hr over the 2 hr experience because then you’ll have more time to have fun at the beach after the pig experience. Remember to bring cash for the jet ski and banana boat activities. Also bring swimming shoes in case there are rocks. Overall the tour guides were very prompt with the departure time and return time. I thought the pig poop would be a deterrent but the guides were cleaning as they did it so it wasn’t bad. The snorkeling and the free rum punch on the island were great additions to the experience!

This excursion was definitely a highlight of my trip to the Bahamas. The meetup location was close to the Margaritaville Resort and they were very prompt with the departure time so arrive early to check in. The boat ride and snorkeling was amazing and the pigs were surprisingly nice and used to people touching them! The poop wasn’t a deterrent as they had a tour guide collecting the poop as it happened. The 4 hour tour was great because you didn’t feel rushed and could enjoy the experience, the beach and the activities unlike the 2 hour tour. Remember to bring cash since the banana boat and jet skis require cash. Overall great tour guides and a lovely experience I would book again when I come back to the Bahamas.

I’m gonna first start out...
I’m gonna first start out by saying it truly was amazing the staff at the boat place and with swimming with the pigs was also amazing but our adventure was supposed to be 1-5 they were having boat trouble which I totally understand things happen that was fine so now we leave it at 2 we go see the pigs and then by 4 o’clock we’re back at the boat place. It was over and we were supposed to snorkel. I heard another member in our group ask what about the snorkeling and they said we had to save somebody earlier, so we don’t wanna have to go through that again I was disappointed. I was looking forward to snorkeling, and they didn’t even offer that to us and then basically our adventure was only an hour and a half with the pigs because the boat ride was 20 minutes there 20 minutes back.. and the jet boat place did give us a free mug for starting out late which I was thankful for and that was very nice, but I really wanted to do the snorkeling 😔. Overall, I still had an amazing time and I still give it a five star you definitely still have to do it.

Fun day overall with some great highlights! (3.5 / 5 Stars)
We had a solid time on the Nassau Swimming Pigs, Snorkeling, Lunch & Private Beach Club excursion! Figuring out our own transportation to the meeting spot was a bit annoying at first, but honestly, it ended up working out in our favor because it gave us some extra time to squeeze in souvenir shopping right after. The tour itself had a lot to offer. Seeing and feeding the pigs on Atholl Island was definitely a cool experience, but for us, the snorkeling stole the show! Swimming with all the vibrant fish in the clear water was even better than expected and made the excursion totally worth it. The private beach setup was super relaxing with plenty of lounge chairs, fun games, and great views. I will say, the rum punch was amazingly good—though it was served warm, which was a little unexpected! An icy-cold cup would have made it perfect, but the flavor was definitely on point. Overall, despite a couple of tiny bumps, it was a really fun adventure and a memorable day in Nassau!

Serious Safety Concerns During Snorkeling Excursion
booked this excursion with our three children and were really looking forward to a fun day in the Bahamas. While we did enjoy parts of the beach, the overall experience was extremely disappointing, especially because of what happened during the snorkeling portion. When we were given our snorkeling equipment, there was no proper safety briefing, no discussion about the strength of the current, and no explanation of what to do if someone got into trouble. We were essentially told to get in. The moment I entered the water, I realized how strong the current was and immediately took my younger daughter back onto the boat. She was absolutely terrified and cried the entire ride back. Unfortunately, several other guests were carried far away from the boat and were clearly struggling. The crew's response was very concerning. People were being told to "keep kicking" and "float on your back." I had to ask why they couldn't radio for assistance or use one of the jet skis to help. Thankfully, a local boat eventually stopped and helped the people who were struggling. What was most upsetting was that afterward, there was no acknowledgment of how serious the situation had been and no thank-you to those who helped. We were simply told to have a great rest of our day in the Bahamas. I contacted the company afterward, and I will give credit to the CEO for personally responding. He acknowledged that their required safety procedures—including a safety briefing, assessing the current, and proper supervision—were not followed that day and said they were reviewing the incident. We did enjoy parts of the beach, but calling it a "private beach" was somewhat misleading. There were so many boats from different tour companies coming in that finding a beach chair became a competition, and it didn't feel particularly private or relaxing. They offered us a complimentary future excursion, which I declined. After this experience, I would not feel comfortable putting my family in that situation again.

Piggy parents!
We had a great time overall! I would recommended an early group outing time if possible! Feeding the pigs was something fun we had never done before! The beach, floating fun & snorkeling was all good!!

Pigs were cute, no snorkeling
We arrived 15 minutes before the start time, filled out the waivers, selected our lunch orders, we helped ourselves to the rum punch and waited with a group of others. We waited a very long time, about 40 to 45 minutes and eventually were met with apologies for the delay and free insulated cups to make up for the delays. There were a group of people from the cruise ships and needed to get back so they needed to rush. We boarded a covered boat and drove past a couple of tourist spots and eventually ended at the beach. The small private beach was crowded when we arrived, but most of them left shortly and we had the beach to ourselves. After a short safety briefing the pigs were released. They swam up fo us as we held out chicken hot dogs (we were assured) and apples on skewers. The pigs were great. Friendly and hungry! We ended up on the beach with the pigs because water was rather choppy. Too choppy for any water activities, like the "kayak" that filled with water and we flipped over. No one from the staff saw or cared and other guests helped us make our way back to shore. While we fed the pigs, our lunch was made and we sat and ate. Food was okay. Got a little cold by the time we ate. Eventually we boarded the boat again and went back to the port where we started. Some guests asked about snorkeling and they said the water was too rough but they never made an announcement. I think they just ran out of time due to the delayed start but who really knows. They didn't tell us anything.

Fun and unique experience, would recommend
All professionally coordinated, friendly captain, guide and support team! Memorable activity for the family, and they offer a condensed version for those on limited time. If you can do it though, take the 4 hour tour!

Just book it!
I cannot recommend this enough!!! The operators were fun and informative. We had a weather issue with high winds so we went to an alternate snorkeling site which was amazing! The piggies were adorable and everything was just really well ran.

Fun times
My kids and enjoyed our time on Mansa Bay. Snorkeling 🤿 was one for the books! Thank you all.

What an amazing experience! From start to finish, everything was well organized and so much fun. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made sure everyone had a great time. Very kid friendly we had a five and two year old with us. The pigs were friendly, clearly well cared for, and such a unique experience to interact with. The beach was absolutely beautiful, and the boat ride was relaxing with gorgeous views. The snorkeling stop was a great bonus and gave us a chance to see some amazing marine life. Lunch was delicious, and the rum punch was the perfect way to end the trip. I highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting the Bahamas-it was one of the highlights of our vacation!

Worth Every Penny!
We had a phenomenal time on this tour! Lex and the crew on the beach were very fun, the boat ride and crew to and from was energetic and fun as well! The pigs were a must do if you enjoy those things but watch for the seagulls! My only observation (not complaint) is that Mansa Bay is a bit rocky, so bring water shoes!
