Join us Monday, November 2nd as we zip over to Exuma, visit the iguanas at Allen’s Cay, have lunch at a nearby sand bank, and explore Shroud Cay!

Itinerary & Description:   Spend the day exploring North Exuma! Enjoy this 6 hour trip traveling around the picturesque sandbars and cays of Exuma.   Departure is 9:30am from Bay St. Marina (Green Parrot Nassau) and we head straight to Allen’s Cay – an island inhabited solely by iguanas. That’s right, iguanas! Here we’ll feed and take photos of the local residents. From there we will head to Shroud Cay, where you can lounge on the beach, explore ‘Camp Driftwood’ and experience the fun of the ‘washing machine’.   Sadly we’d return (yes, we have to) back to Nassau between 3:30 and 4:00pm.   Departure and arrival are from Bay Street Marina. Parking is available – there is security but parking is at your own risk. We will have cold bottled water available throughout the trip.

We recommend you bring:

• Sunscreen, sun-shirts, & hats
• Towels
• Camera (especially if it’s waterproof)
• Light snacks (for yourself)
• Grapes or bread (in case you want extra food for the iguanas)

Prices Adults: $149.00 Children: $129.00 All prices are in Bahamian dollars and include 7.5% VAT.

We often get asked if cruise ship visitors can partake in our Nassau Harbour Tour – the answer is of course YES!  Our tours last a little over an hour, so you’re able to come out with us and still have time to shop and visit Nassau.  We’ll even let you know a few secret spots that we like and the best place to have lunch or dinner!

Don’t let the cruiseships talk you out of it though!  We are fully insured (Massy United Insurance Company Limited, rated A- by AM Best) and our crew is fully certified with Captains licenses and STCW maritime training.  We consistently perform safety drills and our boats are modern and professionally maintained as well as inspected yearly by the Bahamas Port Department.

We pick up directly in front of the cruise ship port, at the Prince George Wharf – a mere few minutes walk from your boat.  We’ll also let you off here, so you’ll still be in the heart of downtown Nassau!

If you have more time in Nassau, and you’d like a bit more adventure – we run longer tours to the Exumas and Spanish Wells & Harbour Island, sometimes lunch & snorkle days at Rose Island, and a few other excursions, such as the world-famous swimming pigs! Check our tour schedule for days and times, or get in touch with us if you have a custom request!

There are many different cruise lines and ships coming to Nassau in the next few months; here is an estimated schedule of arrivals from CruiseTT.com.

We look forward to seeing you in the end of 2015 or in 2016!

We at Harbour Safaris consider ourselves blessed.  We live in a tropical paradise, complete with crystal clear blue waters, white and pink sand beaches, temperate weather, and some of the friendliest people in the world!

With our new venture, we look forward to sharing that with our guests – both local Bahamians and wannabe Bahamians from near and far!

On that note, we were ecstatic to take our maiden voyage on “Huntress” down through the Exumas – stopping along the way at Allen’s and Leaf Cay to see the friendly iguanas, zooming down the chain past Highbourne and Norman’s Cay, and ending up in Staniel Cay for lunch.

Talk about friendly people and service!  The folks at Staniel Cay Yacht Club whipped us up a couple of conch salads while we docked, served us a great lunch in a beautiful restaurant, and had a couple of cold Sands and Kalik beers waiting!  We had to say hi to their nurse sharks, and saw a sting-ray and turtle checking out the action also!

Now, no trip all the way down to Staniel is complete with a stop by Big Major’s to see the Swimming Pigs!  What characters!  As we stealthily approached the beach, the pig-radar activated and the one visible pig turned into a flotilla that swam out to greet us!  These guys make some weird noises, and boy were they hungry!  We had some leftovers from our lunch, mainly salad fixings, and some bread and grapes that they loved!  We’ll never forget these guys, and look forward to seeing them again!

Of course, all good things must come to an end.  As we rode back to Nassau, the sun set behind the clouds and the moon began to rise; the horizon faded away between the sea and sky.  The glistening flat calm waters passed underneath us, and we reached the beautiful Nassau Harbour just in time to catch the last rays of sunlight.
