- Allen Cay - This stop offers travelers the opportunity to explore one of the country’s numerous wildlife reserves and witness the reptilian rock iguana in its natural environment. These creatures may be a bit shy but will occasionally emerge from their rocky homes to briefly greet visitors. The beaches in these protected areas are also breathtaking and perfect for swimming.
- Compass Cay - For the truly adventurous traveler, this stop is rated as the top choice. Here, you can engage in a fully immersive shark interaction in open water, with options for both shallow and deep water experiences.
- Pig Beach - This stop is the MAIN ATTRACTION. It’s the destination everyone visits the Bahamas and the Exumas for. We take you to the original and first swimming pigs attraction located at Big Majors Cay in central EXUMA. Here, you can swim with, pet, feed, take photos with, and enjoy these incredible creatures to your heart’s content.
- Black Point Yacht Club - One of the most spectacular sights in the Exuma Cays is the shifting sand bars that appear at low tide. The captain selects one of the few available during transit, so the chosen sand bar varies from tour to tour.

Great experience 9 hour tour. - We had a great experience on the 9 hour tour with Cameio and Mario to the Exuma Islands. They were very kind and helpful making us feel at home. They offered snacks and drinks on board. We were able to see and feed the iguanas, swim and pet the sharks, and swim with the pigs. We also snorkeled! The clear blue water was spectacular! I would definitely recommend this 9 hour tour with Cameio and Mario! Well worth the money. We had a ball!

100 out of 10 :-) - My son rated this tour 100 out of 10! We had a wonderful day in the Exumas. The guides were great, looking after the group and providing instructions on how to interact safely with the animals. It was obvious they genuinely cared about the animals and environment. In most stops we were the only group on the island, so it felt like an exclusive experience. Feeding the iguanas, swimming with the sharks and pigs was a unique experience. We were also well looked after, with "captain Chippie" offering snacks and drinks at all stops. The tour company was responsive and answered all my questions swiftly. I'd definitely recommend this tour, it was our favourite experience in the Bahamas!

🐖🦎🦈🌴 simply amazing! - Top - Top - Top
I booked the excursion several weeks before my departure to the east because I absolutely wanted to go to the original Pig Beach from Nassau. Since I only spent 3 days in the Bahamas, this excursion was perfect!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Organization
Already a week before the excursion was supposed to take place, the organizers dealt with the weather and informed me via WhatsApp about the circumstances. After inquiring about the length of my stay, the excursion was rescheduled to another day to ensure the experience could be enjoyed in the best weather. One day before the excursion took place, I was offered a pickup from the hotel for a small additional fee - that was also TOP, as taking a taxi would have cost at least four times as much.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Experience
The excursion itself was truly amazing! I experienced so many beautiful and exciting moments in one day; it was truly a jar of jam day! Starting at Iguana Beach, where we were alone in our small group, continuing to swim with the sharks over the plane wreck of Pablo Escobar to Pig Beach (where one should pay attention to the boar - the lead pig, as it is extremely greedy).
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Catering
A good lunch as well as chilled drinks for the entire day were included and did not run out!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Guides
You feel very well taken care of, are well accompanied and supported, and all your pressing questions are answered.
⚠️🌊 one should be seaworthy and enjoy speedboats
Due to the high speed of the boat, the waves are hardly noticeable, but one is still temporarily in the "open" sea and the water splashes quite high along the boat. Moreover, it is not a slow, leisurely boat ride but a speedboat - this must be understood before embarking on the experience.

Thanks to them, we lived the Bahamian dream - The activity was really good, and the crew was absolutely amazing. Capt Cameio the best.
Haven't been in an trip as funny as this one.
We went to iguana beach and was cool. We feed them with some food.
After that, we swan with nurse sharks, which were lovely.
Then we visited the pigs, that were the most funny pigs that I have seen in an island ever.
Finally, we had a delicious lunch at a wonderful restaurant and then we went to a wonderful beach.
Thank to you so much! Can't wait to see you soon

15 year Bucket list wait finally ticked - We contacted Captain directly through our hotel The British Colonial after seeing his flyer. He provided very detailed information regarding the day and we remained in contact via WhatsApp to confirm the weather was going to be good enough for the boat to go out on our chosen day, Captain also arranged for my family - 6 in total to have a round trip pick up.
We were picked up at the time agreed (7.45am) and taken to complete waiver information, payment and to the departure dock.
Captains boat was a nice size (not too many people like some boats) life jackets for all and drinks with snacks were provided through the day.
The boat journey was very comfortable and the views stunning. Cam was also onboard to help. We were always kept upto date regarding the activity and Island we were going to and the duration length to the next stop.
We had a mixed party, my children age 9 and 13, my husband and my in-laws in their 60's and we were all absolutely amazed with this trip!
We enjoyed feeding the Iguanas, being able to get in the water with Nurse sharks was a unbelievable experience but for me - finally seeing the Pigs of Exuam (the original pigs!!) Was honestly a dream come true! It was the main reason I had travelled to the Bahamas and it did not disappoint.
We then had a buffet style lunch after - food was fantastic! A mix of fish, chicken, ribs, rice, pasta, salad - help yourself style. The food did not disappoint and was nicer than some of the restaurants we had been too! Plus the views....wow!
We then started to head back towards Nassau via a private beach where we were literally the only people and we also saw Pablo Escobar sucken plane crash. We arrived back to main land around 5.30pm where the driver was waiting to take us back to our hotel.
I cannot recommend Captain enough, the day was absolutely magical and all my family had the most wonderful time. One of the best excursions we have experienced.
Cam was very helpful during all Island and activities - making sure everyone had a good and helped capture memories of a lifetime.
Thank you both for the best day ever! Our Bahama holiday simply wouldn't have been the same had we not gone on this trip! We highly recommend! You will not be disappointed

The Ultimate Exuma Experience - Exuma Escapes was absolutely incredible from start to finish. We kicked off the day visiting the iguanas, which was such a cool and unique experience. From there, we passed by Pablo Escobar’s crashed plane, seeing it up close in that crystal-clear water was surreal. Swimming with the sharks was definitely a thrill, and the guides made sure everyone felt comfortable before we got in. The pigs were just as fun as you’d imagine, and the food provided was fresh and delicious.
We ended the day relaxing on a beautiful beach with the most unreal turquoise water. What really stood out was how thorough the crew was with safety briefings at every single stop. They explained exactly what to expect, how to move safely, and made sure everyone was confident before jumping in. The boat was clean and comfortable, the vibe was fun but organized, and the entire experience felt seamless.
