I scheduled this excursion on my birthday (July 4th). From start to end I had a fabulous time. From pick up to drop off. Gabriel (my driver) was the consummate professional. He made sure the delicious drinks flowed on my ride to and from the boat. The staff on the boat were fun and courteous. The staff on the beach were really nice. Feeding the pigs really put a smile on my face. They were so cute. The staff ensured that everything was clean. I appreciated the birthday serenade and the lovely video they made for me. The lunch was the best thing ive had since landing. On our way back we were given an additional tour and we got to see some sea turtles. Seeing Gilligans Island was dope. I would absolutely book again!!! Cheers to a great and organized team.
It was the best experience! The boat ride to the island was fun and wasnt very bumpy. People are very nice in the island. They have all kind of activities and the best part was the pigs! Feeding the pigs little treats and having them swim a round you was amazing! I recommend doing this on your next vacation here!
Swimming with the pigs was a great experience would recommend it to anyone
Fun time, first time. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Explained what to expect and how to behave to stay safe. Definitely would check it out if you are in the area.
Although a good friend recommended "Swimming with Pigs," I remained a bit skeptical. After all, the main attraction is swimming with a bunch of crazy pigs! However, the excursion exceeded all possible expectations. The primary operator (Kel) was fantastic: He is welcoming, hilarious, kind... and a simple joy to be around. The pigs were a blast to feed, pet and engage with philosophical questions; they're more like pets than your regular domestic pigs, though their communication skills are rather limited. After all, they're pigs! In the greater paradigm, the pigs know the deal: They want the food we're offering them and they seem to like all of the attention. And for those seeking a sense of aesthetic wonderment, the pigs come in a variety of colors, shapes and sizes. But to be clear, it was the overall atmospherics that made the excursion the picture of perfection: Kel's humor, the boat ride over, the water toys, the dancing, the absurdity of the entire event, and even the snorkeling on the way back. In fact, the quality of the snorkeling was absolutely top shelf; I've snorkeled many times and the variety and volume of fish and other sea creatures was unbeatable. After the mesmerizing snorkeling, our hosts took us back to our ship in grand fashion. There we were... feeling fully refreshed and totally immersed in warm and funny memories. In fact, I can no longer think of "Swimming with Pigs" without smiling. Many thanks to Kel... and to all of the hosts of this most excellent adventure!
Worth it. Good crew. Good food. Everyone had fun feeding the pigs in the water. Probably a good idea to take some dramamine (non drowsy) if you get seasick.
I'm so glad I did this tour. When I got lost going to the pickup point, our guide A1 was able to give me directions by phone. It took over an hour for us to pick up the other passengers and get to Rose Island, but we stopped to see sea turtles on the way which was amazing! We also saw some puffer fish near the dock (rare sighting). When we got to the beach my friend and I went paddleboarding until the pigs were ready to swim. I had so much fun feeding and petting them. They let me hold the baby pig too! Panda (the biggest pig) lounged on the beach with us. The included lunch was delicious, make sure you bring a credit card or cash for drinks at the bar. We made it back to our ship around 2pm. Def recommend Da'PigBeach crew!
The time with the pigs lasted about 15/20 minutes. As soon as they were fed, they went back to where they came from.
We weren't able to swim with the pigs due to strong wind and strong current & for everyone's safety and the pigs as well. But we were able to feed those cute & adorable pigs. We were given enough time to feed and play with them including the piglets. The lunch is also great and the staff are superb!
We had the best day out here! The pigs were interactive and didn't mind us petting them. Staff were helpful and friendly. Swift boat taxi's so no waiting around. A day we will never forget.
