Sea Turtles!
Captain Curry was awesome. Even though the weather was a little rough he expertly guided us through. And when we didn’t see the sea turtles at first he worked so hard to find them and we finally did. Amazing family experience.

Why this scores 74
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nassau.
How much does Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas cost?
+
Prices start at $1,092 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nassau usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nassau is not rushed.
Is Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 152 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nassau, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas?
+
Around 53 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nassau can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nassau and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nassau within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nassau?
+
On Outty we rank every Nassau experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Bites of Nassau Food and Walking Tour, Pirate Jeep Sightseeing Adventure!, Rum Tasting and Food Walking Tour in Nassau Bahamas. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nassau?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nassau?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas?
+
Included: Bottled water; Unlimited Bahama Mama; Snorkeling Equipment; and Snacks. Not included: Towels; and Sunblock. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas?
+
A pickup dock is located behind the restaurant, making it convenient for guests staying on Paradise Island. Please note that a $6 round-trip boarding fee is payable directly to dock security on the day of the excursion. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Private Tour Island Hop Snorkel Turtles & Sip Bahama Mamas offered in?
+
