Servicing Three Islands
Excursions on Spanish Wells, Eleuthera, and Harbor Island
We are proud to offer boat and fishing excursions for three of the most distinct and beautiful jewels in the Bahamian crown: Spanish Wells, Eleuthera, and Harbour Island.
Spanish Wells is a charming, close-knit fishing community known for its pastel homes, friendly locals, and strong maritime heritage. It’s the perfect starting point for boating adventures and a glimpse into everyday island life.
Eleuthera is wild, natural, and breathtakingly diverse. It has everything from dramatic cliffs and hidden beaches to calm coves and crystal-clear turquoise waters with vibrant coral reefs.
Harbour Island, famous for its pink sand beaches and upscale charm, offers a blend of relaxed luxury and postcard-esque scenery. It’s a must-see destination for anyone visiting the area.
Whether you are staying on the quiet shores of Spanish Wells or the bustling streets of Harbour Island, our Bahamas excursions will whisk you away to the hidden spots that contain the unique flavor of each island.
Meet Bahamian Wildlife
Swim With Pigs, Snorkel, Fish & Explore
One of the reasons guests choose Captain Kid & Son Charters for boat excursions in the Bahamas is the variety of unforgettable experiences we offer. Every trip is customized to your interests, energy level, and sense of adventure.
Popular highlights include:
The Famous Swimming Pigs: The crown jewel of Harbor Island, Spanish Wells, and Eleuthera has to be the unique opportunity to swim with pigs. Yes, you read that right! A group of pigs has made their home on a nearby island, and they’re not afraid to mingle with humans. Hop on a tour with us and prepare to be charmed by these friendly, snorting creatures as they swim alongside you in the crystal-clear waters.
Wildlife Encounters: We can also guide you to secret spots for close encounters with stingrays, where these gentle gliders will swim right up to you in waist-deep water. For those who love nature, we can take you to areas frequented by green sea turtles, allowing you to snorkel alongside these ancient, graceful creatures in their natural habitat.
Snorkeling: For those who want to see what lies beneath the great blue sea, our snorkeling tours are world-class. We guide you through vibrant living reefs teeming with tropical fish and explore mysterious shipwrecks that have become part of the ocean floor.
Ocean Swings & Beach BBQs: We offer access to ocean swings that sit right in the sea — the ultimate spot for relaxing with a cold drink in hand. We also organize beach BBQs on secluded sandbars where you can dine on fresh food with nothing but the ocean around you.
Land Tours: If you want to explore terra firma, we offer land tours that highlight the history and culture of the islands.
No matter which one of these Bahamas excursions you choose, you can trust that there will be plenty of photo opportunities. And the Instagram-worthy experiences we provide will leave you with a lifetime of memories.
For fishing enthusiasts, Spanish Wells is a dream come true. The nutrient-rich waters around the island are a breeding ground for game fish like marlin, tuna, mahi-mahi, wahoo, bonefish, and grouper. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a curious beginner, we are here to make sure you can cast your line from the shore, our charter boat, or even try your hand at fly fishing in the shallows.
Imagine the thrill of battling a powerful marlin, the excitement of reeling in a shimmering mahi-mahi, or the satisfaction of catching your own dinner for a fresh seafood feast. Our Spanish Wells fishing charters are tailored to various skill levels and target species, so you can trust you’ll have an unforgettable experience on the water.
The ocean is calling, and the boat is ready. All that is missing is you.
