Great 4 hour trip, good value, lots of fun! - We had originally booked a different tour with Shore to Shore that ended up being combined with this one. They reached out to confirm that we were ok with the change, which I appreciated. They were also incredibly responsive via WhatsApp when I needed to change my booking date last minute after my cruise ship's schedule changed!! There are a total of 3 stops, but you only get off the boat twice. The first stop is a snorkeling stop, where you get to see fish and coral and look around in the water with provided equipment, then there is a place where the boat stops moving, you are offered rum punch, and you get some time to look for turtles at a different island, but you do not get off the boat, and then you arrive at the private beach and get off and have lunch and enjoy the beach. The rum punch served on the boat was yummy, and to address another review that indicated it had no rum, it WAS stronger for those in our group who got their glasses later than it was for those who got the first glasses that were poured. There were many turtles in the water near the boat at the second stop, which was so cool to see and get pictures of! The boat we were on had many ladders, and no one struggled to get on or off, the staff were very helpful during this process as well, and held our hands and even our bags if needed! The private island was gorgeous, with a white sand beach that I will dream about until I return! Everything you need to enjoy the beach was provided except for towels, from rafts and inflatables to clear canoes and lounge chairs and umbrellas. They also have a cash bar available there, and clean, stocked bathrooms. The lunch was grilled chicken, corn, salad, and red beans and rice, the only complaint that our group had was that they ran out of salad before about 6 guests were served, and did not have enough chicken for 1 guest to have a serving. The pigs were very fun to watch and to feed! Our only regret was that a single guest did not listen to the staff when they told us that we ALL needed to be in the water for the pigs to swim with us, and then refused to go in the water as they were fully clothed, resulting in the pigs not joining the rest of us in the water, and we all had to get out and go to them. Please, tour goers -- listen to staff, we all would have had more fun if they had paid attention to the instructions and allowed us to swim with the pigs! The tour left a little bit late, and also returned us to shore a little bit after the expected return time, which would be great for people staying in Nassau, but made those returning to the cruise ships a little nervous. That said, we made our sailing and were thrilled with our adventures!

A great day-trip while in Nassau/Paradise Island. - We had a blast on our 3-island tour. It wasn't perfect, though. The boat was about a half hour late to pick us up at Margaritaville. Despite that, the crew was super-friendly and professional. They impressed us with how they dealt with the small children, older folks, and everything in between on the boat. The operation at their private beach resort was smooth, clean, and well-operated. Captain Mike particularly impressed us with his down to earth presence and genuine concern for the passengers.

Thumbs up! - Larry and his crew were awesome! Love the interaction! Rum punch included was a nice touch. Beach area under construction but still a beautiful spot. Went on a cooler day so pigs weren't into the water but the experience with them on the sandy beach was still cool! We had a big group of kids and adults and everyone had a great time.

Great way to spend the afternoon - We were looking for a way to spend the afternoon instead of at the resort. We booked this trip the day before. The boat arrived later than pick up but the trip was not shortened for it. We went snorkeling at a vibrant fish filled area. We sight saw turtles. We did wish we could get in the water with them. Then we went to the beach club island. It was a rocky walk up some steep steps but it came out to a picturesque beach with cash bar, delicious island lunch, beach, water activities and of course the pigs. We have done the pigs on Exuma with the wild ones, but these pigs are very well behaved! The staff were friendly, entertaining, and helpful. The boat was roomy and the ride was not long. It was worth the price and a fun way to spend the afternoon.

I want to do it again!!! - Amazing tour captain Kris , Rick and pig daddy were amazing host they explained and give instructions in a easy manner they were very funny and helpful 100% recommended they provide water and drinks the private island is pretty cool to swim and explore

Fun for kids and first-timers. - The crew does their best to make it fun. The snorkel was the first stop and it was good. Some interesting coral and some fish but nothing spectacular, it was just nice to get into the water. The next stop was to view some turtles which is cool but not so much if you’ve swam with them before. The last stop was their private beach island which is under construction, but a nice place to hang out. The pigs were cute but very messy, you don’t want to be in the water with them. I’d say this trip is good for families with young kids and for people who haven’t done this type of thing before. In my view it’s a bit steep for the actual experience.

YOU WILL REGRET IT! - DONT DO IT! There is no safe boarding on or off the boat, which in itself amazes me and we were lucky that a couple of older ladies on the trip didn't have a serious accident. From the start; Left 40 minutes late. Rum punch on the boat has no rum in it Arrive at an area that should have a lighthouse it's so choppy! We were told we would do snorkelling and turtles in the one place here? So just 2 Islands then??? NO TURTLES and the smallest piece of "Reef" you can imagine with $5 masks handed to us to use. On to another venue for food and swimming pigs Again, how nobody was seriously hurt getting off the boat I dont know. A ten minute walk through scrub that requires shoes NOT flip flops led you to what can only be described as a building site by a small beach with a pig and chicken farm behind it! The "Lunch" you honestly wouldn't give to a dog. Bones of chicken, rice and a spoon of cold corn straight out of a large catering tin. If you were near the end of the cue you were questioned whether you'd had some already as there was nothing left!!! Then came the pigs!!! Basically, let out to run down to the beach getting fed by anyone that wishes to feed them, not encouraged into the water at all. The worst trip and Value we have ever been on, trust me, choose another company as this cannot get any worse. The crew were friendly enough but hopeless in all regards. I didn't see one smiling customers face leaving the boat and not 1 tip given which tells the story!

Do not travel with Shore to Shore Team - We had a really disappointing experience on the 10am trip. To start with, we were delayed by 30 minutes waiting for a group of eight who appeared to have some kind of connection with the crew. Unfortunately, things only got worse. Several women in that group were extremely rude and inconsiderate—at one point, one of them nearly knocked over my young son and even kicked him, without any apology. Later, during a snorkeling stop, they took over our seats and placed their belongings there. When I asked a crew member for help, he was dismissive and offered an impractical solution that would have separated me from my 8-year-old child. He made no effort to address the situation with the group. The lack of professionalism continued throughout the trip. While a crew member was explaining lunch arrangements to me, one of the women from this particular group interrupted rudely to ask him to charge her phone, and again, no one addressed the behavior. To make matters worse, this same group seemed to receive preferential treatment, including extra food, while I was denied additional portions for my children. Although the trip itself had potential, the overall experience was completely overshadowed by poor management and unacceptable behavior—both from the guests and the crew. I would not recommend traveling with this team.

Late, almost missed cruise ship. - Poorly run. Started 1/2 hour late assured we woukd be back by 430 or 5 actually got back after last call for ship at 6. Ship said we were two minutes from being left at the dock. No sense of timing or anything. Beach club not built. We did see a turtle that was the only positive here.

Not as advertised and not a great experience! - We did not have a good experience. The excursion did not match what was advertised. The snorkeling was not that impressive and also we specifically booked this tour since we wanted to swim with the turtles, and they just took us on the boat around where the turtles were near the green island. There was no communication when we arrived at their private island. The boat crew did not stay with us and no one from their company on the island gave us clear details as to what to expect there. we waited wondering and they finally told us their lunch was ready (which btw was not too bad), but we were at no point even offered bottles of water at any point during the tour. Overall it was not an impressive experience.
