July 2025 Family Adventure - This was our favorite day in the Bahamas. Captain Alex and Big Al were the best! They were incredibly kind and made sure we each got the experience we wanted. Took lots of photos for us to document the day. My five year old got a little tired (and whiny) at the end of the trip and Captain Alex offered her his captains seat which made her light up. It was a trip my family won’t ever forget.

Best part of the trip - We had an amazing time! Maddie and Jello were wonderful! They were very helpful and informative about everything we did. Maddie got in the water with us to feed the sharks, pigs, and iguanas! He let us know the do’s and don’t and gave us history lessons. We Will definitely go back with these guys! I highly Recommend

Pink Beach/Pig/Turtle tour - Captain Jello and First mate Maddy gave a great tour of sealife and coastal bahamas. Could not recommend more if you stay at Atlantis.

Amazing day with Pieces of 8 Tours! Captain Jello & Maddy made our trip unforgettable!! - Thank you Pieces of 8 Tours, especially Captain Jello and Maddy, for an incredible time! We had an amazing adventure! The Swimming with Pigs tour was hands down one of the highlights of our trip to the Bahamas! From start to finish, the crew was professional, friendly, and made sure everyone felt safe and had a blast. The boat was clean and comfortable, and the ride itself was smooth and scenic. These guys had the best tunes!!
Getting to swim with the pigs was surreal — they were adorable and friendly. We also made stops at beautiful sandbars and had the chance to meet the nurse sharks. The team provided drinks, snacks, and tons of great info about the islands we passed.
If you’re in Nassau and looking for a unique, fun, and well-organized excursion, this is it. Highly recommend Pieces of 8 — can’t wait to book with them again next time!

Unique experience for family - This tour was amazing! The whole family had fun at each stop. Our guide was amazing as well. Maddy went out of his way to ensure my 5 year old was comfortable holding shark and pig. Will be back and requesting Captain Diego and Maddy!

Captain D, Mattie, and AJ were great - We got great information, they took great care of us, loaded us up with snacks, drinks, and an incredible lunch. Captain D knew his way around and weaved through the island to make sure we got all of the sights, which AJ and Mattie gave us all the info on what was going on around us.
Definitely the highlight of our week!

Go for the pigs stay for the sharks!! - The crew was great, captain Rob and Brian are the best. Their boat cuts through the water like a razor through foam. You will get wet but the views and the experience are worth any water. You are on vacation!! The sharks are the best. I loved the pigs but holding a nurse shark is a once in a lifetime experience. The buffet was the best chicken I’ve ever had, fish melts in your mouth.
I’ll do this again on my next visit!

One of the most memorable trips ever - Absolutely incredible-from check-in with Shelly to being taken around the Exumas by Captains Rob and Brian. The iguanas, pigs and nurse sharks… a once in a lifetime experience. The buffet lunch at Lorraine’s was one of the best vacation buffets I’ve had. Definitely one of the best times of my life.

Not a safe boat ride in choppy waters - The reason I rated it a 2 is the speedboats go full throttle through choppy waters on the way there & back. You are spending a lot of the time airborne and no one offers you a life jacket. I told them I would give them a bigger tip if they slowed down a little. My kids are 20 yr old boy and 2 teen girls. As we all are having to grip on with 2 hands my 14 yr old who loves every roller coaster she's ever been on says she feels unsafe in the boat. There are a couple of honeymooners that try to drink their drinks in front of us and twice the bumps made them fly out of their hands and dump on to my daughter's face.
The captain sees another tour of 8s boat and it is like they are racing to see who can get back first. I don't mind going fast in the calm waters but this was unsafe. They flew by anchor zones too fast and close to anchored yachts and islands. Boat owners were throwing up the finger at us.
This is not suitable for small children or older people. It is too rocky. My daughter had bruised knees from us constantly being banged against the seat in front of her.
The pigs and sharks and iguanas were amazing. The guides were very nice during those parts. It was just not a safe speed in choppy waters. I saw a few days ago where a speedboat ran over a dad snorkeling by the island bc the boat was going too fast and didn't see him and his 2 children. These accidents happen when boats don't follow regulations.
