Turtles and Trivia - Fun boat ride with high enough waves to make it exciting to and from the island. The captain pointed out historical sites and also, celebrity trivia, to the delight of two young girls in the group, Taylor Swift’s vacation home. We saw several turtles, a sting ray and tropical fish. There were 6 of us which made for plenty of room.

Wonderful Experience - Amazing experience! On the way out, all the points of interest were pointed out and the ride was so fun! Great waves. Once we arrived by the island, they quickly found 3 turtles for us to snorkel with. It was great visibility and the turtles let us get so close! We had a wonderful time and would 100% book again. We came from a cruise ship and walked from the cruise port to the dock- it wasn’t a bad walk at all, about 20 minutes. On the way back they dropped us off at the Paradise Island/Atlantis dock since we wanted to walk around there. It was just our party of 3 on the boat! So nice to have a private tour for such a great value. Thanks!

Incredible Excursions! - We took our first cruise over Thanksgiving week and booked an excursion in the Bahamas with Bluefinn242. We opted to do the sea turtle adventure with pig island as a bonus, and it was incredible. The guides were amazing and very knowledgeable about the area. They made our day special, and the excursions were all that we could have hoped for. I will recommend them to anyone I know who is traveling in the Nassau area, and we will definitely give them a call next time we are in town. Thanks guys

Solo birthday - They were absolutely wonderful, beginning to end. I arrived a little early and they were fishing. Once we headed to onto the water, Omar offered me drinks and a bit of knowledge of the surrounding area. I was nervous I wouldn't see any turltles because if the time of year but we floated passed a few. They helped me figure out the area they were in once I got in the water. Omar assisted with the gear, helping me in and out the boat and giving me my cameras. I dropped my phone in the water and the young man was kind enough to dive and get it for me. I was solo on this tour and they were great company. 10/10 experience!

Definitely Recommended!! - Capt. Omar and his skipper were excellent hosts! We were the only couple on the tour that day and they provided more than just a look at the turtles and opportunity to swim with them. Their guided tour took us pass the beautiful beach homes of famous celebrities. They engaged in great conversation with me and my wife and gave us a great history lesson about Nassau. We highly recommend this tour with bluefin242!

Amazing day - thank you for the adventure. - My friend and I booked the trip to swim with sea turtles. There were two of us- females. We joined another group of women that was a group of four. Six us us arrived early to dock. A little strange finding our way to the dock but it felt safe. We arrived at dock and were met with the Bluefinn242 tour. The crew of two had on shirts with logos. We were early so they got the boat prepared. Took boat out to reef, provided gear, brief intro on gear, showed us where the turtles were and we were off. We felt safe. The crew had eyes on us the entire time. We were well informed of tour and provided extra details of the local area. The cost of the trip was much lower than other tours that we saw. Was not disappointed. We were provided many details on the area and the history. The trip was amazing. Would not hesitate to book again. Saw many turtles on the trip, can’t say that everyday is the same but the crew knew where to look. Left a nice tip and hope to see them again someday. Thank you Bluefinn242 for the amazing day. Dawn

The price is right! - The hosts were friendly and informative. The price was right, and two hours for us was the perfect amount of time. The hosts said they would point out turtles, and did initially, but once we anchored they talked among themselves and didn't pay a lot of attention to us. That is why I rated them four stars. That said, I would recommend this activity to others.

Disappointing trip to view turtles - The experience was overpriced. The starting point was very hard to find with absolutely no signage to help determine if we were on the right dock. The boat arrived a half hour late and we were not informed about the delay. We saw very few turtles which the boat driver said was due to the other boat activity in the area.

Not trustworthy - I had the booking and the ticket voucher but I called before the trip about 8 am to confirm and ask some questions and was told it had been cancelled because not enough people had signed up. They claimed they had notified me in advance but there was no notification. This last minute cancellation really put me in a fix.
