Pig beach (The Bahamas) is located outside the Black Point settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Staniel Cay and the correct question is not how to get to Pig beach, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.

User reviews

"This experience was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that fulfilled a dream from my bucket list! The pigs were frolicking in the water with us, and we had the chance to feed and pet them. The joy we felt was mutual, as the pigs seemed to enjoy our company just as much as we enjoyed theirs. It was as if we had stumbled upon one of the happiest places on Earth! ♥️"
