The waters around New Providence are filled with hidden reefs and shallow sandbars that can be tricky for visiting sailors. A local captain not only ensures your safety but also knows the precise timing to visit spots like Blue Lagoon Island to avoid the large cruise ship crowds.
Most high-end charters depart from Atlantis Marina on Paradise Island or Bay Street Marina in downtown Nassau. If you are looking for a more residential and quiet start, many catamarans are docked at Palm Cay Marina on the southeastern tip of the island, which is the closest point to the Exuma Cays.
Yes, but it requires a high-speed powerboat. While the 'original' pigs are at Big Major Cay (about 80 miles away), many Sailo captains in Nassau offer trips to Rose Island, where you can enjoy a similar swimming pig experience without the 2-hour open-ocean crossing.
The peak season is mid-December to April, offering perfect 75°F to 85°F weather and calm seas. If you book in the shoulder season (May to July), you can often find 15-20% discounts on Sailo, though you should keep an eye on the tropical weather updates.

Most private yachts are capped at 12 guests due to local regulations. However, Sailo features several custom-built catamarans and commercial 'party boats' in Nassau Harbor that are licensed to carry 30 to 50 passengers, perfect for weddings or corporate retreats.
For most day trips (4–8 hours), the fuel is included in the Sailo total. For longer multi-day trips to the Berry Islands or the Exumas, fuel is typically an extra cost calculated at the end of the trip based on current marina prices at Nassau Yacht Haven.
If the Bahamas Department of Meteorology issues a small craft advisory or if there are high winds/thunderstorms, your Sailo host will prioritize safety. You will typically be offered a full refund or a reschedule. Most captains will communicate with you 24 hours in advance if the forecast looks questionable.
