Speed boat rental and charter services in Nassau Bahamas.

For centuries Nassau has been a wonderful place to be with family and friends, on the contrary, even if you want to spend some time alone, Nassau is a fun place to do it.


One of the things you will most definitely want to do while you are in Nassau is to rent a speed boat with a captain. From a speed boat you can go picnicking on a secluded beach or sandbar somewhere, just you and your crew.


You can go to stunning beaches to go swimming.


You can anchor close to a reef and see the hundreds of types of fish and underwater plants if you go snorkeling.


You can also head out to where the water is deeper and go fishing or scuba diving. If it just so happens that’s too much activity for you, you can also just lay out and work on your tan, or just take the scenic speed boat ride around the island, and make stops at different shops or places that are interesting to you.

What Kind of Experience Do You Want To Have?


At Rent Boat Nassau, we offer a range of charter services to meet the needs of boaters of all experience levels. If you are looking for a half-day close to shore trip or a full-day of deep sea adventures we have just the perfect 4, 6 or 8 hour charter that you are looking for.


We can do an around the island tour where we stop at different locations as we go around the island. There is snorkeling and picnicking that we can also arrange. You can also swim with the pigs if that excites you.

The People's Inshore Choice

Imagine this Experience:

 

Meet the captain and board the boat in Nassau for a quick 15 minute speed boat ride over to three little islands on the Eastern side of New Providence and Paradise Island. On the boat enjoy some light refreshments and snacks while riding over the waves. As you ride notice things and ask questions if your guide hasn't already yet answered it while telling you about the places you are riding by. On your right hand side will be Nassau; your crew will tell you a little bit about the rich history of Nassau Harbor. On your left we ride past impressive waterfront homes on Paradise Island of some of the people you may know, or at least would have heard of.

 

Once at the sea gardens, we will put on some snorkeling equipment and visit a stunning coral reef within the sea gardens that is close to Pearl Island.

 

In the water you will be swimming along with colorful and majestic fish, who for the most part will ignore you and continue about their day, doing whatever they had decided to get up and do that morning.

 

Next on our speed boat rental and charter in Nassau, Bahamas we head over to visit the turtles at Turtle Cay. Turtle Cay is home to Green Turtles, but it is uninhabited by people and naked. Here you will get a chance to not only see them, but to also learn all about these charming creatures and get the chance to see them in action for yourself.

 

When I say naked I mean that no development is going on there. It is being left the way that nature had made it. At Turtle Cay mainly because it is naked turtles and other wildlife are able to thrive.

 

Once back in the speed boat our visit will include a visit to Pigs Beach on Athol Island. While here if you like you can take a bit more time and go kayaking or maybe more snorkeling. You are also able to play beach games, or just chill and enjoy snacks and drinks during the day.

 

We will provide you with all the equipment and a life jacket for snorkeling. Dive into crystal clear water with a very vibrant and lively reef full of colorful coral and beautiful fish in every direction.


A refreshing punch will be provided as you relax and chat with your boatmates.


Since we first left Nassau, a number of hours would have passed and we get in the boat and sit back and relax while taking the scenic route back to the pick up point.

 

If your party consists of more than eight people, no problem! We can handle groups of ANY size range, its just that we may have to get another speed boat to ride along side us.

 

Please email us directly or call one of our numbers to speak with us. We will gladly create a charter specially made for you and your guest! 

Places We Frequent

Pearl Island Reef

Within 50 feet of its shoreline just below the surface of the water you will see the most colorful tropical fish. 


Parrot Fish, Sand Divers, Porcupine Fish, Bahama Grunts, Trumpet Fish, Moray Eels, Bahama Shrimp, Lionfish, and many more. 


At many locations if you try to hand feed the fish you put your self in a precarious position. This is not so at Pearl Island, you can feed the fish without compromising your safety.  


Pearl Island is just 3 miles away from Nassau, that's not far away. In this area the water is still shallow which means that it is usually calm, this allows for beautifully restful snorkeling. It's a matter of just laying face down in the water and enjoying the show that the fish put on for you. 


It’s a good way to relax. 


This activity will not leave you exhausted.
