Cruise to subtropical Rose Island to relax on the beach and interact with its most well-known residents—a passel of cute, friendly pigs that will swim out into the ocean to greet you. On the way there, you will see many of the attractions around Nassau’s harbor and hear tales of the domesticated pigs that inhabit Rose Island. The pigs have been pampered since they were babies and love attention, so be ready for a fun, up-close and personal experience. Once you wade into the shallow waters, you can expect the pigs to approach, knowing that food awaits. The guide will show you how to feed the pigs and the best ways to interact with them while swimming. The pigs couldn’t be cuter or more enthusiastic about the attention. You will also have time to enjoy activities such as beach volleyball, a refreshing swim in the sea and lounging about while Caribbean music plays in the background.


HIGHLIGHTS
• Admire the gorgeous scenery on a leisurely cruise to Rose Island.
• Swim with the friendly pigs that live on the island and feed them if you wish.
• Relax on the island’s idyllic beach and take a refreshing swim in the sea.

This tour includes a Harbor tour on the way to Rose Island, approximately a 40-minute interaction with the pigs and about 30 minutes to relax or enjoy the music and activities.
