The MOST amazing day

If you want a taste of the Bahamas and a GREAT trip, look no further!! Brice is simply incredible!! He took my grandma and I and we had the BEST time! He picked us up, was a wealth of information, and showed us some of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen! The snorkeling is world class, and you float along with ease in the warm, perfect waters! We saw a dolphin pod on the way home, stingrays, turtles, and amazing fish!! He made my grandma and I feel comfortable the whole time. Just the most beautiful sights on the island!
Great excursion!

The drift snorkeling was amazing. We saw spotted eagle rays, abundant & colorful coral and many tropical fish. I highly recommend this trip with Brice!
Bucket list worthy

What a great day! We have been fortunate enough to snorkel and dive in many great spots, but Sweeting’s Cay is in a class all it’s own! The drift snorkel and blue holes were magnificent! The abundance of coral and sea life was breathtaking. After the snorkeling I told Brice “I saw everything but sharks” but then low and behold we had a lunch on lovely beach and were joined by several passing sharks
Great snorkeling spots

My husband and I had a great day snorkeling with this trip. In one of the snorkeling locations, you can just float and let the current take you, so it’s not as exhausting of a day as I expected it to be! We seen lots of cool sea life, including a huge sting ray swimming around. We were able to see some sea turtles at the turtle park. The boat ride is a little rough, so sit closer to the back if you can for a more comfortable ride. I would also recommend some motion sickness medication just incase. The bus ride was a little long from our cruise port, but it was worth it for the great views and interesting information about the islands given to us by our tour guide. I think on the ride back, everyone was wore out and fell asleep. Great trip and would recommend to anyone
Fun time

We had a great time. Really enjoyed the trip. Nice people. Everything as advertised. Good food. Saw a lot of fish.
Stunning and fun!

Stunning! It’s about an hour+ ride from Freeport, then a boat ride (with stunning views) to an awesome remote cay where you swim around a blue hole then at the second stop you just float with the current and see the coolest coral and fish.
Friendly captain and staff were a plus!
Sweetings cay adventure & Eco tours

Sweetings cay & tour was a awesome time & experience. Brice was a awesome tourist guide. We was first timers snorkeling and he helped us learn how to snorkel and he had safety precautions in place if we got to for apart. It was diffently a day a never forget.
One of a Kind Excursion
Nikki_B, 15-10-2022
This experience was one of a kind. Bryce + others were the best hosts and made us feel like family. It felt as if we were brought in to see a piece of their lives and were able to experience it with them. We were able to journey to the East part of the island and were informed of many historical facts to make the ride interesting. The boat ride to the blue hole was full of laughter and singing while we viewed the variety of beautiful shades of the blue waters. The location of the blue hole was secluded and private where our family was able to see lots of marine life. I do not believe we would have been able to see any of this elsewhere if we didn’t choose this excursion. Their beach house was also beautiful and we were able to enjoy yummy homemade sandwiches. This whole experience was one that made our trip for sure. They were extremely intentional with every action. Bryce even drove back to our place of stay later in the evening to bring us a hat we wanted to purchase late.
Unforgettable, Starfish, Shark, Breathtakingly Beautiful

By far the Best Snorkeling Trip we have been on and we have done a dozen. The crew made sure we saw lots of sealife..many starfish, all different types of coral, we even saw a nurse shark! Then to top it off, we were surprised by the guide taking us to his private home and feeding us a freshly cooked meal including fried Conch. The views from the beach and boat were breathtaking. We also saw a turtle and baracuda at Sweetings Cay. Fantastic experience!
Must do!

Brice was amazing! This is a must do. He took great care of us. We saw thongs most tourists wouldn't even.
Amazing beaches and animals, bad operator
W8812NDjamesb, 26-11-2022
The beaches are stunning and the best ones at grand Bahama. It’s a beautiful nature there. The snorkelling is also fine but its a drift so it’s a short one where u are not able to navigate by your own. Turtle park was very disappointing - there are much better places to see them on the island.
Unfortunately the provider of the tour preferred cruiser ship tourists by far. As normal tourists they let us wait for more than an hour for the cruisers to appear so the trip was very short and rushed (the ships wasn’t late, only the people). Of course we payed the full money for a rushed experience even if other people were this late.
Great experience but not as advertised
Gavin_V, 04-01-2023
Great experience just not as described. they are very friendly and wonderful people, but it wasn't as advertised. We did not get to snorkel a blue hole just a reef and it was not in the turtle park like it's made out to be. I would recommend doing this as it was a good time just don't expect to see a turtle guaranteed and be ready for a long car and boat ride to get to the reef.
