We really enjoyed your tour especially the Iguana beach that we had all to ourselves! Captain Dave is great, very friendly and personable. My daughter wanted picture perfect photos and he was able to get the pigs in shot! Everything went very smoothly and we really want to come back to Exuma and stay longer.
My group of 10 had an awesome time! The flight was a little scary for some because they don’t like big planes, let alone small planes. The boat and guide was great and informative and funny. The pigs and iguana parts we loved, and the sandy beach island was perfect.
Did this trip last week and all I can say is BRILLIANT.
From the flight to and from Nassau, the captain, the people – just amazing.
Thank you 🙂
This one day trip was fabulous! Perfect weather, seas and Capt Dave. Highly recommend the small group and the flight over the long boat ride, worth the extra money! I plan on doing this again but I wouldn’t do the extra sea turtle experience – 40 extra minutes there and back to Farmers Cay. Best pictures and memories!
We had the absolute best time on our day trip! We decided on the Bahamas for our honeymoon mostly to see the swimming pigs. 🙂 We stayed in Nassau and had initially booked our tour with another company that takes you to the pigs by boat. That tour was cancelled 3 times because of weather (high winds causing waves too big to travel by boat), and it didn’t look like we’d get to swim with the pigs before we left. But we found the fly-in tour and were able to book two spots for our last full day in the Bahamas.
The whole tour was completely amazing!!! We snorkeled with tons of colorful fish at Thunderball Grotto, visited a huge sandbar in the ocean, stopped at Compass Cay to swim with and pet the nurse sharks, then finally went to see the swimming pigs! We just loved them! We got to feed and swim with them, walk around the beach with them, and sit and rub their bellies. It was so much fun, and we felt like we had plenty of time at each of the stops. Afterwards, my husband and I had lunch on our own at the Staniel Cay Yacht Club, which was great. Then we had time to sit on a beach for almost an hour before our tour guide came back to pick us up and take us back to the airport.
The whole day was such a blast, and the trip was worth every penny! We’re so glad we were able to book through this company on such short notice. Thank you for saving our honeymoon! 🙂
We visited the swimming pigs with your company in November . A fantastic day , we loved all the different elements & ‘Captain’ Kenton was brilliant. Totally laid back ( diving off the jetty with us) & informative .
The boat group only totalling 10 in number makes the trip feel special & not tourist herds as can be the case.
All in all a top trip , love to do it again .
We had an AMAZING day! Our guide really delivered a fantastic experience, encouraged us to try new adventures, and showed tremendous pride in and respect for his island home. I would definitely recommend your tour to anyone who wants to spend a day in paradise led by those who know that is where they live!
Awesome day! Beautiful views from the flight there! Loved every stop, had plenty of time – swam with pigs, sharks, and lots of fish. Loved boat trip and beautiful view of the water. Was worth the money and I would highly recommend!
What a memorable day spent seeing some of the most spectacular scenery and enjoying the flawless navigation with our guide and captain, Dave. We had unreal views of the Bahamas out islands on the roundtrip flights – just gorgeous. Everyone we encountered was kind and knowledgeable. Captain Dave was patient and informative and saw to it that we were safe yet also got to be adventurous! Swimming in the Grotto was spectacular as well as relaxing on the stretch of sandbar. The sharks and the swimming pigs of course were interesting but for us, the beauty of the surrounding waters and being on the boat was the most enjoyable.
I would recommend this trip for those who want to experience these things without the ‘masses’….saving the long boat ride to and from by flying is so worth the extra cost!!
There are two slight drawbacks and the first is my own fault for not inquiring: we would have liked to have brought some cold beers along with us for the day. Luckily, there was a shop on the island where we swam with the sharks that did sell cold beers and we definitely enjoyed relaxing there with a few! Secondly, once arriving back at the quaint airport, it was a 50 minute wait for our plane to arrive before we could head back. That wait sort of defeated the purpose of upgrading our day by flying…..would have been much happier to have spent that lost time out on the boat longer. Thank you to all helped make this day so memorable for us!
We had a great time with Captain Dave. Beautiful day with the iguanas, sharks and pigs 🙂
We loved that we were a small group, only six on the Boat, 3 couples and Captain Dave.
It was one of the best days of our lives. Would recommend to anyone.

Our kids really wanted to visit the swimming pigs so we tried to book a boat tour from Nassau but there were none available. That’s when we found your tour by plane and really liked the idea of flying versus the long boat ride. We were thrilled that we could go by plane! Captain Dave made the boat tour so memorable, all the little extras and expert knowledge and local stories. Everything was well explained and how to interact safely with the swimming pigs. It felt great not being rushed or having time constraints. We couldn’t visit the Thunderball Grotto because of the tide conditions, but overall this was a 5-star experience, it went smoothly and we got really great photos and experiences together as a family. Your company was very quick to respond to us, we never heard back from the other company we enquired with! We have recommended to all our friends and family and mentioned that you can do this day trip from Miami as well!!
All the boat tours were cancelled that week so that is when my sister found your tour online. We had an excellent trip, Captain Dave was excellent and he looked after us all really well. We only had 6 on our boat tour. The Sharks at Compass Cay were crowded and the platform is very small, they need a bigger dock! Dave is very knowledgeable, knows all the pigs names and showed us how to pick up the baby pigs which I didn’t see other tours doing. He was very accommodating to our need.
