About this experience
Get ready for an unforgettable island escape from Nassau with the world-famous swimming pigs of the Bahamas. Your half-day adventure takes you to stunning Rose Island, where clear waters, soft white sand, and friendly pigs create pure paradise.
After a scenic 30-minute boat ride, step ashore at our private beach club, your home base for relaxation and fun. Keep your camera ready as the stars of the show trot down to greet you. These gentle, well-cared-for pigs love to paddle in the shallow waters, snack, and pose for photos, creating memories you’ll never forget.
Once you’ve made new four-legged friends, the rest of your day is yours—enjoy a freshly prepared Bahamian lunch, lounge on a beach chair, sip tropical drinks, or grab snorkeling gear or a paddleboard to explore the turquoise sea.
Perfect for cruise passengers and island guests, this tour blends authentic local flavor, unique animal encounters, and the relaxed beauty of a private beach club on Rose Island.
