Swimming with the Pigs

Swimming with the pigs is the most iconic excursion in Exuma, Bahamas—and an experience you simply can’t miss. Located at Pig Beach on Big Major Cay, this adventure lets you splash, swim, and interact with about 20 friendly pigs and piglets who live freely on the uninhabited island. While no one knows for sure how the pigs got here—some say shipwreck survivors, others say sailors left them behind—their playful presence has become one of Exuma’s biggest attractions.
