Snorkeling Day Trip - Five stars for the captain, crew, and boat. The crew and captain were great. Friendly, professional, they made sure everyone was safe in the water. It was a motorboat seating about two dozen. We had booked a Saturday trip but they cancelled for safety reasons. (Not sure if it was a bad weather forecast or what.) They fit us onto the Sunday excursion. No other issues. The snorkeling spot was okay. I think you may have to travel further away to find a more fish populated spot. Did see a ray which is a plus is my snorkeling book. The turtle spotting was good. Plenty of turtles where they brough us. Rose Island I could have done without. There is a place there where you can get a buffet style lunch, and feed pigs while in the water. Both of these are extra charges. Pig feeding was $30. They just release pigs from a pen and chase them into the water where people are given cups of fruit to feed them with. Yes, it is a thing to do in the Bahamas, but it has a tourist trap feel to me. Better to go down the beach a little further and find a nice spot on the beach to relax which is what my wife and I did! My preference would be to have two snorkeling stops, and skip the oinkers. Overall, a fun relaxing day trip!

Beautiful beach and snorkeling, highly recommend - Awesome excursion! We enjoyed the smaller group experience, the captain and crew were great hosts and skilled at driving. We felt safe the whole time. Had plenty of time to snorkel, and enjoyed tasty Bahama Mama’s on the boat. Rose island was absolutely beautiful, we could have spent the whole day on the beach there. We skipped the pig feeding and just took pictures of them instead, then enjoyed the lunch and beach a little longer. Once it looked like we were going to be late returning to the pick up location, we let Captain Higgs know and he did his best to get us back in time for our next excursion, made the return trip 10 minutes faster than normal and we were able to run back to the port in time for the walking tour we had booked (the ship changed the time on that excursion last minute, otherwise we would have never booked two things so close together). Would highly recommend this excursion and was an excellent price compared to booking through the cruise ship!
