Description
Our powerboat and snorkeling experience has went to another level for 2025 with the addition of our very own private and exclusive location on Rose Island, Bahamas! While our first stop still remains an amazing snorkeling experience at Rose Island Reef, second stop observing turtles at the sanctuary at Green Cay, our final stop is now a unique beaching experience at the official 007 Beach Club on Rose Island. Our private beach club is even more off the beaten path as it’s on the far east side of rose island and isolated from all other establishments. Upon your arrival feel free to immerse yourself in the breathtaking turquoise waters, bury yourself in one of our two person hammocks and explore the lush native foliage . This is the perfect dose of “The True All Inclusive Island Experience”.

Great crew , disappointing snorkeling experience
We signed up for this snorkeling / turtles / beach experience. We were under the impression that the main focus was snorkeling and that there would be a stop at the beach on the way back for a quick swim and lunch. Unfortunately, it was the opposite . It should have been advertised as a beach day with the snorkeling being add on activity. Approximately 25 minutes was dedicated to snorkeling, about 10-15 minutes seeing sea turtles and the remaining 2 1/2 hours was spent at the beach. As disappointed as we were with the amount of snorkeling time we saw there were pigs on the beach and thought ok.. at least we have this additional experience. We were then told we don’t have the correct color bracelet so we can’t interact with or feed the pigs. The crew was very nice and friendly .. no issues at all with them. This should never have been advertised as a snorkeling trip when the vast majority of the time was spent at the beach . We live 20 minutes from the beach so this is not something we would have chosen had we known how little time we would be spending snorkeling. The quality of the snorkeling was excellent, the amount of time was very disappointing and we felt cheated out of our precious little time in Nassau as well as our money. If you are going for the snorkeling I would not recommend this tour.
Operator response
We appreciate your feedback about the itinerary and understand how important it is for our guests to have a clear understanding of what to expect. Your comments regarding the duration of snorkeling and interaction with the pigs are invaluable, as they help us improve our offerings and ensure that we provide accurate information in our advertising. We are glad to hear that you found our crew friendly and that you enjoyed the quality of snorkeling. However, we regret any disappointment caused by insufficient time allocated to this activity. Your insights will be shared with our team as we continuously strive to enhance our guest experiences.

Hour late
Left on time but got back to dock 52 minutes late in part due to an unscheduled drop off of some people at cruise ships. Also, one of the crew was frustrated when my kid asked for a mask and snorkel at Rose Island.
Operator response
Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent experience. I sincerely apologize for the delay in returning to dock and understand how frustrating it can be when schedules are impacted by unscheduled stops, such as the drop-off at the cruise ships. Additionally, I regret that one of our crew members did not respond positively to your child's request for a mask and snorkel at Rose Island. We strive to provide a welcoming environment for all our guests, and I will address this matter with our team to ensure better communication and service in the future. Your input is invaluable as we continuously work towards improving our services. If you have any further concerns or suggestions, please do not hesitate to reach out. Thank you once again for bringing these matters to our attention.

The night before she...
The night before she rescheduled the tour to before we got off the cruise ship by 2 hours. We got to the destination only to find out that they already left which I understand they had to do due to booking sizes. We spoke on the phone at their sister company and she said that she’d cancel our tour, however, I was still charged for the excursion on my credit card and I had to call Viator to get my refund back. I feel like they should’ve canceled our excursion when we didn’t appear with a last minute reschedule.

No snorkeling with the sea turtles.
Had a great day. BUT. It is at Margaritaville bar on paradise island..a taxi ride. You DONOT snorkel with the turtles, but you do snorkel at a not so vibrant coral reef.. The island is private NOT Rose Island. The complimentary lunch is a not so great burger and a bag of chips. We ate as we were starving from being in the water.On the up side. The boat ride on the ocean was AMAZING. The crew were very friendly. Overall we made it a great day in the ocean and enjoying the scenery on the boat. If you get a good deal (under a 100) it can be worth it.
