What to Expect when Swimming with the Pigs on Rose Island

Our swimming with the pigs tour begins from mainland Nassau, where we embark on a 30-minute boat ride across to Rose Island. This cay is one of the most beautiful in the Caribbean, with powder-soft sand and sparkling turquoise waters – the perfect setting to get to know our friendly pigs.  

When we arrive, we’ll have some time to settle on the beach, taking it easy for a bit before we meet Da Pigs. You can enjoy a dip in the stunning turquoise sea, or simply kick back on the sand. 

Then, it’s time to meet Da Pigs. These little guys are very comfortable around humans and are always happy to splash around in the water and play with our visitors. You’ll have plenty of time to play with the pigs, take photos, and generally have a good time.
