Description
This powerboat tour departs from Paradise Island and travels southeast for about one hour to Allen’s Cay, home to the rare Bahamian Rock Iguanas found only on three Exuma islands. You will have the opportunity to observe these unique lizards in their natural habitat.
Next, the journey continues south through the Exuma Cays to Compass Cay, where nurse sharks gather under the docks of Compass Cay Marina. Visitors can safely swim alongside these gentle sharks.
The tour then heads to Big Major’s Cay to swim with and feed the swimming pigs that have gained worldwide attention through media and social platforms. This is a well-known spot to capture memorable photos.
After swimming with the pigs, enjoy a buffet lunch and a cold drink at a local restaurant in Exuma to recharge before the afternoon activities. The next stop is a snorkeling adventure at the wreck of a plane famously linked to Pablo Escobar, located just off Norman's Cay. The plane crashed in the late 1970s and is now a popular snorkeling site.
The final stop is a sandbar or beach for swimming, sunbathing, and additional photo opportunities before returning.
