Swimming With PIGS

A group of pigs find their way in the seawater of the Exumas, frolicking around and showing off their aquatic skills!  From the mainland of Exuma, Jaclyn and I wish to take a boat excursion to visit the Pig Beach.  The cruise we researched takes us from Exuma to Staniel Cay from and then to Big Major Cay, where the swimming pigs are located.  This excision's memories will definitely last me a lifetime.  It's one thing to say that I swam with dolphins, sharks, or fish but pigs is a whole new level of excitement.

The history behind Pig Island is fascinating.  Long ago, a collective of sailors thought it would be good idea and resource to put pigs on an island for food reasons.  The sailors never came back to use their resources they developed, leaving the pigs behind to become a popularized aspect of the Bahamian culture and lifestyle.

Big Major Cay is uninhibited and secluded.  The only inhabitants are the 20 or so pigs that roam through the island and call it their own.  It will be a delight to experience such an astonishing thing!  Never will I be able to say again that I swam with a group of pigs!
