Private Rose Island, Swimming Pigs, Snorkeling and Turtles

Great experience with the private boat. Captain Eddie and his two sons were excellent!! Rode to pig beach early before the crowds and were the only people there. Gave great history of the islands. Was the voted best part of the cruise by the entire family!

Amazing experience! Captain McKinney provided an outstanding and personalized excursion from start to finish. I highly recommend booking the private tour over a group excursion. We were able to stop whenever we wanted, spend as much time as we liked at each location, and enjoyed the day at our own pace without worrying about other travelers. It made the entire experience much more relaxing, flexible, and memorable. Definitely worth it!

This was the absolute BEST experience we could have done!! Starting with our driver Tavia, she was so friendly and so sweet!! Made sure to get us to our correct boat and even dropped us off at a restaurant when we were done so that we could get some water for one of my daughters that wasn't feeling well! She went above and beyond simply getting us from point A to point B! Then there was our captain! Captain Lauren had the BEST timing and knew ALL the perfect spots! He took us to the pigs first, which allowed us to get there before all of the other boats. That meant we were able to have an almost completely private time with them! Then he fulfilled my ultimate dream of swimming with sea turtles! He knew the exact spot to find turtles and he did not disappoint! He even let us use his waterproof phone case so that we could get crystal clear videos! Then to end it off, he took us to the most beautiful private beach that I have EVER seen!!! Literally can't thank the two of them more! Thank you thank you for giving us the BEST DAY EVER!!!

Our boat trip with Captain Ramsay was the highlight of our trip! Loved it from start to finish and it was amazing experience for the whole family. The half day excursion exceeded our expectations and would love to do it again! Thank you, Captain Ramsay and Brittany!!

The PERFECT day!! Exceeded all of our expectations. Our captain, McKinney, was amazing. We got to choose what we did and how long we stayed. Saw a ton of turtles, fish, sting ray and played with the pigs. Would recommend them to anyone visiting.

Was a great trip. Enjoyed being able to control the time at each venue based on our preferred schedule. Captain was great and everyone had a great time.

This was such a fun experience and totally worth the splurge. Captain Kennedy reached out to me a few days before the activity to confirm everything. We were on a cruise and they picked us up on time from the Straw Market, which was a short walk from the cruise terminal. Octavia was friendly and a great driver and got us started in a great way. Captain Ramsey and Tamara were great and we had such a fun morning with them. We were the only group at the pigs, which made it such a special and fun experience. We were clearly told in advance that it would cost an extra $25 a person. After that we went snorkeling, with all equipment included. Captain Ramsey took us to the area with sea turtles and gave us time to snorkel there (and pointed out the turtles). We kept seeing the boats with tons of people on them who realistically didn’t pay that much more at the end of the day than we did. The large group excursions would have only come to about $300 less for us. While that is a lot of money, it was worth it to have a completely private experience. The time at the private beach was amazing. They kept us hydrated during the day and had lots of various chips to keep our hunger at bay. My only regret is that this was only 4 hours!! I’m also sorry that I didn’t bring more cash because I would have liked to have given them an even larger tip than I did. I would definitely recommend this splurge!

This was the best excursion I’ve ever been on. I have 4 teenagers and they all told me that “this was the most fun they’ve ever had and the best excursion ever.”

We had an amazing half-day boat tour with Bahamas Land and Sea Tours! Snorkeling with sea turtles was unforgettable, and feeding the swimming pigs was so much fun. The stop at the stunning white-sand beach with crystal-clear water was the perfect way to relax. The crew was friendly, professional, and made the entire experience enjoyable. Highly recommended!

The trip advertises swimming with pigs in the title so obviously one would assume that is what’s included. Apparently it is for an additional fee which is not clearly advertised. Our guide tried to negotiate different prices for the pigs and we simply declined because we don’t do business that way. Seems like a bait and switch which is not what we have experienced in the past using viator tours. I would not recommend. Viator used to be better than this.
