Real experiences from real travelers
Booking was seamless. Our captain took us to a spot on Rose Island where we were the only people there. The snorkeling with turtles was the highlight of our trip!
The private charter allowed us to skip the crowded tour boats. We saw the turtles at Green Cay and then had a great lunch at a beach bar the captain recommended. High quality boat and great crew.
Everything was as described. The boat was clean and the snorkeling gear was in good condition. I wish we had booked the full day instead of just 4 hours.
We booked the swimming pigs private tour. It was incredible to have the boat to ourselves. The rum punch was delicious and the captain was very knowledgeable about the history of the islands.
The coral reefs we visited were teeming with fish. Being on a private boat meant we could stay longer at the spots we liked. Very professional service from start to finish.
If you are in the Bahamas, you have to get on the water. This platform made it easy to find a boat that fit our group of 8 perfectly. Highly recommend the Green Cay stop.
The kids loved the turtle snorkeling. The boat was spacious and safe. The booking process was straightforward and the communication from the operator was excellent.
We did the customizable charter and it was the best decision. We spent most of our time at a private sandbar. The water is even more blue than in the photos!
Everything you need to know for your journey
The best time is from December to April when the weather is mild and the hurricane season is over. However, boat tours run year-round, and summer months offer the warmest water temperatures.
This varies by operator. Most provide water and ice, while some include snacks or rum punch. Luxury charters may offer full catering, while others allow you to bring your own or stop at a beach bar.
Yes, that is the primary benefit of a private charter! You can discuss your preferences with the captain to focus on snorkeling, beach lounging, or wildlife viewing.
Almost all private charters include high-quality snorkeling masks, snorkels, and fins in various sizes at no extra cost.
Most tours depart from Nassau Harbor, Paradise Island Ferry Terminal, or Bay Street Marina. The exact location will be provided in your booking confirmation.
If the captain deems conditions unsafe, you will typically be offered an alternative date or a full refund through our booking partner's policy.
Yes, private charters are excellent for families. Many boats have shaded areas and life jackets specifically for children.
It is recommended to bring some cash for tipping the crew (customarily 15-20%) and for purchases at island beach bars or souvenir shops.
A half-day (4 hours) usually allows for 2-3 stops like Green Cay and Rose Island. A full-day (8 hours) allows for more distant travel, such as the Exuma Cays, and a much more relaxed pace.
