Highlights
  • Allen Cay - Here you will interact with the Bahamian Rock Iguanas that call this small island home. This species of lizard can be found nowhere else in the world other than three small islands in Exuma.
  • Compass Cay - Compass Cay is famous for their nurse shark population that call this marina home. Here the nurse sharks are not shy, and welcome thousands of visitors per year. Some of the most Instagram worthy photos will happen at this stop while you take a swim in the clear water surrounded by nurse sharks!
  • Great Exuma - Enjoy a delicious lunch and a cold drink at a local Exuma restaurant before getting back on the boat to continue your tour. Lunch is a Bahamian style buffet that will not disappoint!
  • Pig Beach - Big Major’s Cay the home of the now world famous swimming pigs! These pigs have made their way around the world thanks to shows like ABC’s The Bachelor and many social media influencers who have visited the pigs here and have shared their experiences with millions of followers. Here you will have the opportunity to feed and swim with pigs. Don’t forget to take photos!
  • Norman’s Cay - You will have the chance to snorkel at a plane wreck known famously as “Pablo Escobar’s sunken plane”. The plane crashed in at this spot just off Norman’s Cay in the late 1970’s supposedly filled with cocaine. During this time, Pablo Escobar had taken control of Norman’s Cay and its small run way to utilize it as a home base and refueling point for the planes that were running cocaine from Mexico to the U.S. Definitely as must see!
  • Exuma - The only way to finish off a perfect day is to enjoy some beach time! You will stop at a beautiful sandbar or beach for swimming, sunbathing, and more photo taking before heading back to Paradise Island.

Amazing day - An amazing day. We hand fed iguanas, swam with sharks and pigs and had a lovely lunch. The waters were crystal clear and the crew were knowledgeable. Sorry I didn’t get their names, but when one of our engines stopped working, help was quickly at hand. A truly amazing day and one I won’t forget.

A must do experience - A great day! The highlight for me was not the pigs, but the nurse sharks and swimming in the sand bar. Excellent way to see more of the beautiful Bahamas.

A day at sea we won’t forget! - The crew was excellent, very fun and made sure everyone had a great time. The tour was truly unforgettable. We fed iguanas, held a nurse shark, swam with pigs and relaxed on an amazing sand bar. The crew offered to help take pictures and make sure everyone had enough time to interact with the animals. Lunch at the local restaurant was delicious. Everything was well planned and thought out. Highly recommend this tour and crew!

Worthwhile Exuma day trip - Fantastic trip with Wilson, Winston and TJ. Feeding rock iguanas, snorkelling around Pablo Escobar’s plane, swimming with and giving belly rubs to nurse sharks, feeding the wild pigs on the beach, decent lunch at a local restaurant and then swim at a beautiful deserted beach. With a good crew and plentiful drinks on board. Best day of the year.

Simply THE BEST! - Wow this trip was amazing. We did the full day trip to Exumas from Nassau which included the iguanas, swimming pigs, the nurse sharks, stunning sand bank, lovely lunch and snorkellling at Pablo Escobars crashed ship. The Born Free crew on the boat were amazing, so helpful, fun and informative and they really do look after their guests. We did another trip with another company the day before and honestly wished we’d gone straight to Born Free. We felt safe and confident that we were in good hands. Anyone looking to do any trips while in Bahamas go check them out you won’t be disappointed. We only have one day left and we are gutted as we would defo have booked another excursion with Born Free. Thank you so much for the best day ever!

This is a MUST DO! - We had an amazing time with Winston, Joey, & Jasmine! The check in process was easy and organized. We didn’t have to wait long to board once checked in. We stopped at 6 different areas to feed the iguanas, feed the nurse sharks, play at the sandbar, swim with the pigs, eat lunch, and snorkel Pablo Escobar’s sunken drug plane. Snacks, lunch, and drinks were provided. It was such a great day! Great memories!

Surreal Tour and Great Company - Wilson, Winston, and TJ were so friendly, helpful, and fun! This was an amazing excursion and worth the price! It felt surreal. The pigs, the turtles, snorkeling, sand bar time, and lunch! They brought local snacks as well to try and made sure the entire crew stayed hydrated!
