You will not regret this decision to book this trust us 🥰 - This trip was literally the highlight of our honeymoon, captain Alan and captain Lesley were super amazing guides, kept us very safe, they spotted a bull shark whilst we were snorkelling and got us all on board super quick thanks for the vigilance! We were well watered and fed you won’t need to bring snackies. the best part was the pigs and Spanish Wells which was stunning. We got to drive golf carts to the beach which was fun, the wreckers restaurant was superb! Top notch huge food. Loved the music on the boat too added to the ambiance. 💯 a must do trip, well worth every penny! Was a magical great day didn’t want the trip to end. Rebecca (pink hair) and Steven 🥰

A great addition to our Nassau Trip! - We had an incredible experience on the guided tour of Exploring Spanish Wells, Swimming Pigs & Turtles with Captain Adam and Alan. The personalized attention, extensive knowledge, genuine passion ( and great taste in music) they shared made the trip unforgettable. From swimming with the pigs to encountering turtles, every moment was well-orchestrated. The pristine beauty of Spanish Wells was complemented by their professionalism, making it a truly memorable adventure. Highly recommend!

Best Excursion ~ Highly recommend - This was an amazing trip! if you don’t want big crowds and a lot of tourists, this is a great one! You go to more private places and get a more personal experience. It was a small group and the crew was great. Highly recommend.

Pigs, turtles and starfish, oh my! - We had a wonderful time on this excursion! Leslie was a great captain and navigated us around the rain safely. Adam and Alan did a fantastic job always making sure we had cold drinks in our hands. The crew kept us safe by explaining how to interact with all of the animals. Finding HUGE starfish was such a bonus to the “pink” sand beaches. We never went hungry, they had snacks available and gave us the opportunity to try some local food (conch salad, Johnny bread and sky juice). We were so sad when the day was over, but we had so much fun swimming with pigs, turtles, rays and starfish! A big thanks to Leslie, Adam and Alan for showing us a good time.

Wonderful experience with pigs & turtles❤️ - The trip was fabulous! I was disappointed in the pink sand beach because it is NOT pink! The turtles were swimming up to the boat and there were a-lot of them, pigs were so cute we enjoyed feeding them.

My family LOVED this excursion! - My family LOVED this excursion! Our crew was awesome…Leslie, Allen & LJ!!!! They were super accommodative and informative. They made each stop safe for the humans and safe for the animals. We participated in everything but there were some people who stayed on the boat and were able to see everything too. There were plenty of snacks and drinks but the restaurant stop was actually really good. The music on the boat was so fun which made the ride even better. Book this trip!!!! It was worth every penny!!!
