Is swimming with the pigs worth it, according to Reddit?

According to Reddit, swimming with the pigs is worth it in one place: the Exumas (the original Big Major Cay pigs), not the copycat versions. A 180-comment r/royalcaribbean thread is blunt about the difference: “Swimming with the pigs in the exumas is incredible. The janky cruise stop in Nassau, not so much”. One commenter calls the Nassau version “a garbage knockoff excursion.” The logistics explain the gap. The real pigs live on an uninhabited cay deep in the Exuma chain, a spot day-trippers reach only by long, expensive speedboat runs, and a charter yacht simply anchors beside. Go early, and keep fingers clear of large, food-motivated animals. Read the full swimming pigs guide.
