We accommodate up to 24 passengers on this tour per boat.

This tour includes complimentary ice cold beers, rum punch, bottled water, and Cokes/Diet Cokes.

The group tour is not appropriate for smaller children, so for the safety and comfort of our guests, we require children under 5 be accommodated on private charters only.

Snorkeling gear is provided.

We require a Visa or MasterCard on file to hold the space, but your card is not charged until you are at the dock.

Please note:

We request that guests looking to fly into great Exuma from Nassau for the day should book one of our half day experiences, and not the full day tour.

Guests not staying in Great Exuma should contact us before booking.

Who should not book this experience?

  1. Due to the distances involved to get as far as the Nurse Sharks and Thunderball Grotto, there are sections with upwards of an hour of driving time in the boat which can be too long for some guests, especially families with older grandparents or younger kids. Those who are not interested in spending a great deal of time on the boat traveling should look at our half day options.
  2. This tour visits some of the most popular attractions in the Exumas, and is not for the guest looking for a remote, uninhabited island experience. Please look at our half day options or private options for a more relaxed tour.
  3. There can be a dozen boats or more at each location and many other guests at the various stops. Expect a lot of people!
  4. Guests booking this excursion should be physically fit, able to endure long stretches on the boat, comfortable swimmers and confident at snorkeling
  5. Please note we do allow drones and photography equipment but we suggest that you opt for a private charter so you can get the shots you would like without upsetting the other guests on the public tour. Also if you do take a drone or professional camera equipment we do not assist with storage of these items or uplift due to insurance liabilities. Also you will not be able to take any professional pictures or drone footage at compass cay with the sharks as this is a private island and the owners do not allow it
