Glass bottom tour-five stars! - Captain Turbo and Tory were our guides and gave us such a memorable experience. From great music to commentary, we had such a great time. They both know so much and were eager to pass on their knowledge about the Bahamas. We snorkeled for a while over a reef and then got to dock near a beautiful beach and swim/snorkel more. They also showed us around the harbor more on our way back. Snacks and drinks were provided.

- We did the glass bottom boat and snorkeling excursion with our family of 5 (3 kids ages 11,12 and 14) and 10/10 highly recommend! What sets Cay Island Tours apart is the captain and staff- truly magnificent, energetic and knowledgeable people! Captain Turbo and Jay were both just a joy and made the trip so much fun. If you’re in Nassau, do yourself a favor and book the excursion!

Boat ride in the bahamas - Captain Turbo was a wonderful boat driver. The view and the tour experience were awesome. He put the boat in super speed, raising the front off the water. This was awesome. The first mate was great with the island's history and the harbor. The reef was quiet that day, but the boat ride was great. My children were even allowed to drive the boat for a few minutes.
