Full Day 007 Thunderball, Swimming Pigs & Staniel Cay Charter
Your Private Exuma Bucket List Adventure
Charter your own boat and experience the Exumas’ most iconic destinations in one unforgettable day. This private adventure takes your group to the legendary Swimming Pigs, Thunderball Grotto, Compass Cay’s nurse sharks, and more—all at your own pace with an experienced local captain and crew.
This is the ultimate charter for guests who want to experience Exuma’s world-famous attractions in a single day.
- 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM
- Starting price: $3,900
Highlights
As this is a private charter, the order of stops may vary depending on weather, tides, and your group’s preferences.
- The famous Swimming Pigs at Big Major’s Cay
- Swim with the friendly Nurse Sharks at Compass Cay
- Visit the endangered Bahamian Rock Iguanas on Leaf Cay
- Snorkel inside the legendary Thunderball Grotto (advanced snorkeling)
- Relax on a spectacular sandbar
- Cruise through the breathtaking Exuma Cays with opportunities to stop at secluded beaches and scenic viewpoints along the way
Is This Charter Right for You?
This is our ultimate bucket-list charter, designed for guests who want to experience Exuma’s most famous attractions in a single day.
Because these destinations are spread across a large area, there are several cruising legs ranging from 40 minutes to over an hour. While the scenery is spectacular throughout the journey, this charter involves considerably more time on the boat than our half-day experiences.
If your goal is to visit Exuma’s most iconic attractions, this is the perfect choice. If you’d rather spend more time swimming, relaxing, and exploring fewer locations, we recommend one of our Half-Day Private Charters instead.
This charter is ideal for:
- Adventure seekers
- Active travelers
- Strong swimmers
- Families with older children and teens
- Guests wanting to experience Exuma’s most famous attractions
This charter may not be the best fit for:
- Families with very young children
- Older guests who may find extended boat rides uncomfortable
- Guests looking for a quiet, off-the-beaten-path island experience
Important Safety Information
For your safety, this charter is not recommended if you:
- Are heavily pregnant
- Cannot comfortably climb a swim ladder without assistance
- Cannot easily walk up a flight of stairs
- Have significant neck, back, or mobility issues
- Cannot swim
- Have difficulty kneeling or bending
Our captain reserves the right to modify the itinerary or decline boarding if participation would present a safety concern.
What to Expect
The Swimming Pigs, Thunderball Grotto, and Compass Cay Sharks are among the most popular attractions in The Bahamas. During busy periods, you should expect to encounter other visitors and tour boats at these locations.
If your vision of the perfect day is discovering secluded beaches, hidden sandbars, and peaceful islands away from the crowds, look at our Full Day Rolleville Pigs/Farmer’s Cay Charters, or the Moriah Marine Park Charter may be a better fit.
What’s Included
- Ice-cold local beer
- Canned Mojitos
- Signature rum punch
- Bottled water
- Coca-Cola & Diet Coke
- Juice for children
- Snorkeling equipment
- Landing fees
- Pig food and iguana food (where required)
Personalized Refreshments
Every charter includes a selection of complimentary beverages, but your experience doesn’t have to be one-size-fits-all. With 48 hours’ notice, we’re happy to customize your onboard cooler to better suit your group’s preferences whenever possible.
Not Included
- Private round-trip hotel transfers
- Lunch
We’ll be happy to arrange a lunch reservation for your group at the Staniel Cay Yacht Club, allowing you to enjoy a relaxed meal before continuing your adventure.
Pricing
1–10 Guests: $3,900
Additional Guests (beyond 10)
- Adults (18+): $350
- Teens (13–17): $325
- Children (3–12): $299

Full Day Rolleville Pigs/Farmer’s Cay Charter
A More Immersive Way to Experience the Exumas
If your ideal day is filled with turquoise water, deserted islands, incredible snorkeling, and effortless exploration, this is your charter. Designed for guests who want to slow down and truly experience the Exumas, this private adventure takes you through some of the most beautiful and uncrowded corners of the island chain with your own captain and crew.
While our Staniel Cay Charter focuses on the Exumas’ most iconic, Instagram-famous stops, this Explorer Charter offers a different rhythm—less time covering distance, more time immersed in each location, and access to quieter, less-visited areas of the Exumas.
- 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM
- Starting price: $3,900
Highlights
As this is a private charter, the order of stops may vary depending on weather, tides, and your group’s interests.
- Visit the nearby Swimming Pigs at White Bay Cay
- Meet the endangered Bahamian Rock Iguanas on Leaf Cay
- Swim in a unique natural blowhole
- Reef snorkeling and blue hole snorkeling
- Relax on the spectacular sandbar at Children’s Bay Cay
- Snorkel with an underwater mermaid sculpture
- Take an easy sandy hike to a breathtaking panoramic viewpoint
- Explore secluded beaches, hidden coves, and deserted islands throughout the day
Lunch Options (Locally Owned Favorites)
One of the highlights of this charter is the opportunity to enjoy authentic Bahamian dining at some of the Exumas’ most loved locally owned spots. Your captain can recommend and time the best option based on your group and the day’s route.
- Ocean Cabin (Farmer’s Cay): A warm, family-style Bahamian meal prepared by the owner and her husband
- Shoreline Beach Bar & Grill (Great Exuma): A laid-back beachside stop known for fresh fish tacos and island favorites
- Exuma Point Restaurant: A traditional Bahamian buffet experience with sweeping ocean views
These stops offer a chance to experience real island hospitality while supporting local families and businesses.
What Makes This Charter Special
This itinerary is designed for ease, variety, and flow.
With shorter distances between stops, you’ll spend less time cruising and more time doing what you came to the Exumas for—swimming, snorkeling, exploring, and relaxing in crystal-clear water.
It also allows for a more flexible and spontaneous day, with your captain able to adjust the route based on conditions and what your group is enjoying most.
Ideal for Families & Larger Groups
This Explorer Charter is an especially strong choice for:
- Families with younger children, looking for a full-day experience at a more relaxed pace than the Staniel Cay route
- Guests who want a full day on the water without extended cruising times
- Larger groups (25+ guests), as we can accommodate this experience using our larger vessels for added comfort and space
- Multi-generational groups who prefer more time swimming, beach time, and shorter travel segments between stops
Farmer’s Cay Charter vs. Staniel Cay Charter
For many guests, our Staniel Cay Charter is a must-do bucket list experience, featuring some of the Exumas’ most iconic, Instagram-famous stops.
The Explorer Charter offers a different rhythm—less time covering distance, more time immersed in each location, and access to quieter, less-visited areas of the Exumas.
Both are exceptional days on the water. The difference simply comes down to the experience you want:
- Staniel Cay Charter: Iconic highlights and world-famous destinations, all in one unforgettable day
- Explorer Charter: A more relaxed pace, fewer crowds, and deeper time in nature-rich, off-the-beaten-path locations
A Favorite Among Our Captains
This is one of the most requested itineraries by our crew when they’re hosting friends or family.
It combines everything the Exumas are known for—clear water, vibrant marine life, hidden beaches, and stunning scenery—into a relaxed, unhurried day that still feels full of discovery.
A Private Charter Designed Around You
One of the greatest benefits of a private charter is flexibility.
Because the day is exclusively yours, your captain can adjust timing, linger at your favorite spots, or make spontaneous stops when conditions are perfect. No two days are ever exactly the same.
That’s the beauty of exploring the Exumas this way
