What's included in the package

Itinerary

Sweeting's Cay is about 4 miles off the east side of Grand Bahama Island and the perfect spot to spend the day. Guests will be transported from the city of freeport through several villages to McClean's Town where guests will board a boat and off to Sweeting’s Cay. On your way to the cay, you will be able to see the unspoiled beauty of the surrounding cays. You will be given a briefing on the dos and don’ts of the area. During the 60 minutes of kayaking you would be kayaking through the creaks and mangroves were you can observe star fish, fish, jelly fish, conch, sting rays, you may even see sharks, eagle rays, and turtles, but don't worry, if you don't get to see the turtles while kayaking you will be able to see the turtles at Turtle Park, our second stop on this adventure. You will be able to see the turtles in their natural environment, darting their heads to see who is visiting them. Some will come close enough for you to take pictures of them in the lake surrounded by mangroves.

Exciting and very informative. Your trip begins and ends with a fun filled tour of the bahamas. Worth the ride to see some of the most remote areas of the bahamas

We loved kayaking. Brice takes you to an area that is farther out from the cruise port and because of that you have your own private experience. We saw a ton of tropical fish, nurse shark, starfish, and a family of dolphins. We will be going back with them next time in Freeport.

Good fun! Brice & Rico were wonderful. Brice was very informative about island knowledge/history. It was a cultural immersion with individual attention to our group. Kayak trip was in a beautiful area-saw starfish, conch, fish, stingrays, sharks in the distance and one turtle popped his head up. ...
