This was an absolutely perfect, and enjoyable experience from start to finish. Every single person was kind and funny and caring. They all made the experience unforgettable. Not to mention the pigs were totally awesome as well, as was the food! We will definitely be doing this again with them, the next time we come. HIGHLY RECOMMEND BOOKING WITH DA PIG BEACH!

I absolutely enjoyed my time with this company! Everything was organized from the clear instructions regarding the schedule for the excursion (ie how long we had to play in the water; when the pigs would arrive; lunchtime; and departure) to how to interact with the pigs! The food was delicious and every team member was so kind! I will never forget this excursion! I beamed from ear to ear the entire time!

What an incredible experience! I booked this excursion while on a cruise, and out of all the options (including swimming with pigs), this one really stood out—and I’m so glad I chose it. The staff was friendly and did a great job explaining the itinerary for the day. The only part I found a little stressful was finding the meeting spot once we got off the cruise ship—the sign they were holding was quite small, so I recommend arriving early to give yourself extra time. Once on board, the boat ride was beautiful and relaxing. I really appreciated that they limit the number of people per tour, which made the whole day feel intimate and not overcrowded. When we arrived at the island, I was blown away—it felt like a mini resort! There was a bar, plenty of comfortable seating, paddleboards, kayaks, snorkeling gear, and they even served a delicious, authentic Bahamian lunch. Interacting with the pigs was so much fun! There were pigs of all sizes, and we got to feed them and even swim with them in the water. It ended up being my favorite activity of the entire cruise—I honestly could have spent the whole trip on that island with the piggies. I highly recommend this excursion if you’re looking for a unique and intimate experience with your loved ones.

I went on a bachelorette cruise for my sister, and she was really excited to do the swimming pigs excursion. It was super pricey through our cruise line, so I did some digging and found this option with Da Pig Beach, which seemed like the best value, and I’m so glad we chose it. My sister, the whole bridal party, and I had an absolute blast. A guide met us right at the cruise port and walked us to a bus that took us over to Montague Beach in Nassau. From there, we hopped on a boat for about a 30-minute ride out to Rose Island. Once we arrived, we got a quick rundown of how the day would go and then had about an hour to relax on the beach before the pig experience started. We loved that they provided lounge chairs and had extras like a water trampoline, cabanas, hammocks, and plenty of shady spots. There’s also a bar on-site if you want to grab a drink. When it was time for the pig experience, they gave us a cup of apple slices and a little skewer to feed the pigs. Each group gets a different set of pigs, which they release from a pen. The pigs come trotting down the beach and swim out to meet you, it’s ridiculously cute. We had about 20 to 30 minutes to feed them, take photos, and enjoy how friendly and sweet they were. One of the highlights was getting to hold a baby pig. You could really tell the animals are well loved and taken care of, which made the experience feel even better. After the pig fun, we were served an authentic Bahamian lunch, which was included in the price. We still had another hour to hang out on the beach or float in the water before heading back. The whole staff was so warm and welcoming. Before getting back on the boat, they passed around a tip jar, so definitely bring some cash for that. We made it back to the cruise port about two and a half hours before departure, which gave us time to do a little shopping too. If you're in Nassau, I’d absolutely recommend this experience, it was the most memorable parts of our trip!

Wasn’t too sure about doing this tour but the wife had it on her bucket list! Fabulous day, the island is amazing and the pigs didn’t disappoint! The boats were on time (no island time wait!) staff were very helpful and the size of group hasn’t massive when time to the pig experience. Booked in advance and didn’t use there transfer so can’t comment on this but otherwise would recommend

Absolutely amazing experience for the entire family we went as a group of 8 with ages ranging from 5-61 and we all had a great time. The host were kind and welcoming the boat captain was just a vibe and played great music. The food was delicious and we were occupied the entire time from snorkeling, playing with and feeding the pigs, Canoeing, hammocks, and jumping off the water trampoline.

Excellent experience and the pigs made for a once in a lifetime trip to Rose Island! The staff and the lunch were wonderful -- drinks were amazing -- views were pristine and unlike mainland Bahamas. Definitely take a trip out and join Da Pig on the next boat out to Rose Island!

This was the perfect half day excursion, and was a highlight on our trip. We had a large wedding group with many different personalities, however every single person left happy. The pigs were adorable and seemed to truly enjoy the interactions. I know that we sure enjoyed them. The food and drink selection was great and the island was just stunning. Gigi and A1 were very helpful and kept us amused the entire time. Thanks for a wonderful time!
