Pearl Island Pigs Beach Adventure

OVERVIEW

Cruise to idyllic Pearl Island on a catamaran for a relaxing beach escape with the opportunity to swim with a passel of pigs on a neighboring island. It won’t take long to reach Pearl Island as it lies just a few miles east of Nassau’s harbor. You will spend hours on this slender oasis that boasts two beaches. Feel free to bask in the sun on a comfortable lounge chair, swim in the turquoise sea and enjoy watersports such as kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding. In time, the catamaran will bring you to nearby Athol Island, whose only residents are pigs. They are used to human contact and soon after you enter the water they will swim out to greet you. The guide will recommend the best ways to interact with these friendly pigs, who are excellent swimmers. The experience will provide plenty to talk about over a traditional Bahamian lunch back on Pearl Island.
