About
Bahamas Water Tours operates from Prince George Wharf and focuses on what the Bahamas does best — getting families into the clear, warm Caribbean water to see what lives beneath the surface. With a 4.7 Google rating and a narrower specialty than general tour operators, they've found their lane and stay in it.
Snorkeling in Bahamian waters is genuinely special. The visibility is extraordinary on clear days, the water temperatures are comfortable year-round, and the marine life — parrotfish, sergeant majors, sea turtles, coral formations — is the kind that makes kids want to become marine biologists. A water tour specialist like this will take you to spots where you'll actually see something, rather than a crowded beach where everyone happens to put on a snorkel.
Their social presence is mainly on Facebook under the handle 1AmaZingSnorkelTour, which reflects the enthusiasm of a small, passionate operator rather than a corporate tour company. Reviews on Google have been consistently positive.
Open 9 AM to 5 PM every day of the week. For families where the kids are specifically water-focused — kids who'd rather be in the ocean than looking at colonial buildings — this is the right choice. For families who want a broader Nassau experience, a combination tour might serve better.
Bring reef-safe sunscreen regardless of what tour you book in Nassau — it's not just an environmental preference, it protects the coral reefs that make the snorkeling worth doing.

Why Kids Love It
Bahamas Water Tours focuses specifically on snorkeling and water experiences — if your kids are fish-obsessed or love being in the ocean, this is a more targeted option than a general sightseeing tour that also happens to stop at a beach. Based at Prince George Wharf, they're easy to find and positioned to get you on the water quickly.
