Hotels in Nassau for a Swimming Pigs Trip

For a swimming pigs trip, stay on whichever side of the harbour your boat leaves from. BahaWaterTours’ 3 Islands Tour has a meeting point on each: the charter booths outside Senor Frog’s on Woodes Rodgers Walk in Nassau, and the docks by Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville for guests staying on Paradise Island. It leaves at 10:00 AM or 1:00 PM for about four hours and costs from $175 per adult on Viator (checked November 2026), lunch included. Book the boat first, then the room near its dock.

Where the boats leave from

• Downtown Nassau, the Bay Street side: BahaWaterTours and Tour Daddy LLC at the booths outside Senor Frog’s; Pearl Island Bahamas' Swimming Pigs Express at Elizabeth on Bay; Phoenix777's catamaran at Sail Tomorrow on East Bay Street.
• Paradise Island: Oasis Ocean 7 Charters' beach club day and Sandy Toes' full day on Rose Island from the Paradise Island Ferry Terminal; Shore To Shore Bahamas' Group Tour from Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville Bahamas; BahaWaterTours’ second meeting point by Margaritaville.

Nassau or Paradise Island

Downtown Nassau puts you on the side where four of the boats on this site meet, the same side of the harbour as the cruise port. For a 9:30 AM or 10:00 AM boat from Senor Frog’s or Bay Street, that is the easy morning.

Paradise Island is the side for Oasis Ocean 7 Charters, Sandy Toes and Shore To Shore Bahamas, and BahaWaterTours meets guests there too. Sandy Toes' full day leaves at 10:00 AM with check-in at the ferry terminal by 9:30 AM and no boarding after 9:50 AM, so a room near the terminal takes the pressure off.

If you are staying further along New Providence, plan a ride to the dock: none of the trips compared here includes hotel pickup in its standard price.

Arriving by cruise ship

There is no night to book on a port day. Swimming pigs from the cruise port lists each boat’s start time and meeting point against a ship’s day.
