A must do when in Nassau - We did a 4 hour private fishing and snorkeling tour with Born Free and it was an amazing experience. Most of the people I took on this tour had never done anything similar to this and they were blown away by both the fishing and snorkeling activities. We went shallow sea fishing and caught close to 20 fish, the fish were skinned, deboned and cleaned so that they can be taken to any restaurant to be cooked. Captain Bobo took us to see some sea turtles and then took us to some very nice corals where we snorkeled and saw tons of fish. I would highly recommend this tour.

Family time at Bahamas - We had so much fun! Captain Willy and Alex were amazing. Walked us through snorkeling and fishing. We were able to see so many fish under water and were able to fish so many yellow tail. They also took us to see some turtles!! Recommend the crew and the tour 100%.

This is our second time... - This is our second time on this trip, brought our 17 yo and 13 yo boys and we had a fantastic time and caught many many fish. We brought some next door to Margaritaville’s restaurant to cook our “fresh catch” lunch. We think it’s excellent for beginners, my wife caught her first fish ever unassisted

Wonderful birthday! - I came to the Bahamas for my 40th bday! This boat charter was by far the highlight of the trip! When we got on board they asked about what we are wanting to do and what we like. Went to see the pigs, fished, and snorkeled. You do have to book the pigs before you get on the boat though. I always got prompt responses from my emails. Very friendly and accommodating. I will definitely book them again if I make it back to the Bahamas. There was plenty of room on the boat to lay out and catch the rays! TOP NOTCH!!!!

Making Memories - We had the best time on the water with Captain Willie and First Mate Calvin! As a group of friends, it was the perfect experience, we got to choose what we wanted to do, relax with some drinks, play our favorite music, and soak in the stunning views. The crew was fun, professional, and made sure we had everything we needed.

Reef Fishing Experience - Captain Bobo and Kyris made our reef fishing half day, afternoon, on the water really enjoyable. They went beyond our expectations for catching fish. Super helpful for inexperienced fishermen.

Ok experience. You don’t get full time that you paid for so be aware. - Paid for a private charter for 4 hours (1-5pm) on July 14,2025. Captain Bo Bo was pulling into doc within 3 hours. We told him to drive around since we still had time and he did for an extra 30 mins. So basically paid $800 for 3.5 hours. Was ok not very informative or interactive with us. It was like they were in a rush to get us off. The boat is also very old 1976 so not as clean or spacious. Would not book again with them.
