From the calm shores of Paradise Island, you can set out on one of the most unique adventures in The Bahamas — swimming alongside friendly pigs in turquoise water. A private tour makes it even better, giving you space, flexibility, and a touch of luxury.
The Charm of Paradise Island
Paradise Island is the perfect launch point, with beautiful beaches, luxury resorts, and quick access to the cays. Boarding a private boat here means you can skip the crowds and head straight into adventure.
Meeting the Swimming Pigs
Seeing pigs swimming toward your boat never stops being delightful. They’re curious, friendly, and love to interact with visitors. The clear shallows make for incredible photos, and the laughter is contagious whether you’re feeding them from shore or wading in beside them.
Why Private Makes a Difference
With a private tour, your day moves at your pace. Spend longer with the pigs, stop at hidden beaches, or detour to a favourite snorkelling reef. Most boats are equipped with shade, comfortable seating, drinks, and friendly local guides who know the best times and spots.
A Full Island Adventure
Many private pig tours also include extras like snorkelling at coral gardens, visiting nurse sharks, or exploring sandbars that vanish at high tide. It’s a chance to see the best of the islands in one day, with the flexibility to linger wherever you like.
