Ask the operator for the departure dock, total time underway, boat capacity, shade, food and water plan, weather policy, cancellation terms, and the latest return arrangement. Routes and stops can change with conditions, so do not book around an unchangeable promise.
Follow the guide's current feeding rules, do not chase, ride, sit on, or pick up the pigs, and keep children within reach. Do not bring unsuitable food or alcohol for wildlife, and take all rubbish back with you.
The official Bahamas visitor guide calls Big Major Cay the home of the swimming pigs and notes that it is accessible only by boat from the Staniel Cay area. That makes the transfer, weather policy, and the guide's current wildlife instructions part of the core plan. Do not assume that a popular social-media image establishes a permitted interaction, an included stop, or a safe swimming condition for the day.
Access, schedules, prices, facilities, wildlife, and conditions can change. Verify time-sensitive details before booking or setting out.
