    great trip with Captain Chris

    Fishing & Snorkel/Turtles/Pigs Trip on July 27, 2026 • 4 adults

    This was a great addition to our cruise for not much more than a normal excursion. Captain Chris took care of us. We wanted an easy fun-filled day and he delivered. First we bottom fished in easy waters. Caught a bunch of fish like snapper, grunts and clown fish. He ensured all of us caught at least two. We drank all his delicious rum punch. Then he took us for a short but private visit to the pig island. it was sweet and easy. last was a short dip in the water which was amazing. a school of fish surrounded us in crystal clear water. he fileted the fish and when he discovered the reataurant we were trying to eat at was closed he quickly drove us to a restaurant to save us a cab ride. A + experience. Highly recommend.

    Excellent Trip!

    4 Hour Trip – Light Tackle on June 15, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Chris is amazing! Super laid back, friendly, great with kids, great taste in music and knows his fishing spots. We did the light tackle trip and my oldest got first fish, I got most fish with 8, my youngest got prettiest fish with a 10-15 pound trigger fish (new category) and my husband got biggest fish with a 7 foot nurse shark! It took about an hour to get it in on 20 pound test line, but in the end Chris hand pulled it in! Love him. All in all we caught some bait fish, a few big eyed jack, a couple strawberry grouper, yellowtail tuna, some snapper, and a shark (LOL)! It was a great trip and we highly recommend! 10/10!

    Best. Day. Everrrrr. !!!!!!!!!!

    Fishing & Snorkel/Turtles/Pigs Trip on April 24, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Captain Chris was absolutely amazing from the second he pulled up to the dock. From his perfect playlist ( he will also take requests ) to his positive and friendly personality to his enthusiasm for fishing, this was an experience we will not forget!! Our boys (5&7) had the best day as well, so for sure a family experience. My husband snorkeled for the first time, and the day was beautiful. We can't wait to come back to Nassau just to do this again w Captain Chris and JNC Tours.

    Wonderful Day 🎣

    4 Hour Trip – Light Tackle - 1:00 PM on June 30, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

    We had a great time fishing yesterday with Captain Chris! We were bottom fishing and caught many different species of fish, grouper, grunt, trigger fish, parrot fish, and sharks. My son caught a yellowtail snapper too. My husband reeled in a bull shark, and the captain caught a bull shark with a hand line, crazy! We had a little time left and were able to snorkel for the last 30 minutes or so. It was truly a great day and we will 100% do it again!!

    Wonderfully Relaxing Day on the Water

    Fishing + Snorkel/Turtles/Pigs PM on December 28, 2025 • 2 adults

    We had a great afternoon sightseeing, feeding the pigs, and catching red grouper on 12/28/25. Our co-captains Ryan and Pedro were super friendly and geared our outing to do just the things that we wanted to do. We passed by and learned about the mansions of the rich and famous on Paradise Island. We stopped off at Rose Island to feed and pet the pigs. We passed by Gilligan’s Island, and then we had fun fishing. Since I’ve had very little experience with a rod and reel, I’m sure I wasted a lot of bait! But Pedro and Ryan were exceptionally patient and kind, and we caught quite a few fish. They even filleted some for us to take with us! We enjoyed the rum punch and everything about our afternoon on the water. We would definitely recommend the 4 hour Fishing, Snorkel, Turtles tour with JNC Tours Bahamas (Even though we didn’t snorkel or swim with the turtles!)

    Amazing trip!!

    Fishing & Snorkel/Turtles/Pigs Trip on May 7, 2026 • 5 adults

    This trip exceeded my expectations. we caught a TON of fish, the big ones being a barracuda & grouper, mind you we were only bay fishing. The capitan & deckhand are what made this trip truly rememberable. they kept us safe while making sure we had PLENTY of rum punch to have a good time. If im ever back in the area I will be booking with them again.

    2000 out of 10

    Fishing & Snorkel/Turtles/Pigs Trip on July 28, 2026 • 6 adults • 2 children

    Captain Chris was the best! My 6 and 10 year old loved this trip and caught so many fish! We said he had 3 hands he was doing so many things at once!! He fileted our catch and directed us to a nearby restuarant to cook it. My youngest gave him at 2000 out of 10!

    Great Fishing Trip and Guide.

    Fishing & Snorkel/Turtles/Pigs Trip on August 11, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had a great time on the boat with Chris. He took us to several spots where we caught some small grouper. Then returned us to the Green Parrot where we at the grouper bites as an appetizer. Good trip overall. Rum Punch that he provided was good too!

    Great day on the Ocean

    Fishing & Snorkel/Turtles/Pigs Trip on July 3, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    We had a great time on the ocean with JNC charters. Captain Chris was wonderful with my two boys, and we all learned a lot about the fish and the surrounding islands. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a fishing tour.

    Lots of fun!

    Fishing & Snorkel/Turtles/Pigs Trip - 1:00 PM on July 22, 2026 • 4 adults

    Our family of four had a great time. We caught triggerfish, strawberry snapper and other fish that were too small to keep. Captain Chris also caught a big shark! We went to Pig Island and enjoyed that experience. We ended up having three fish big enough to clean and eat. Captain Chris took them to a friend to get filleted for us then drove to our resort to drop them off later that night!! And they were delicious. He was a great guy, played awesome music, and had rum punch for us.

Thank you so much for the amazing review! It was a pleasure spending the day on the water with your family. The triggerfish definitely deserves its own category :) Hope to have you all back aboard again soon for another great day on the water!

Our first trip and it was GREAT!!!
Fishing & Snorkel/Turtles/Pigs Trip on May 28, 2026 • 4 adults

Our first charter in The Bahamas and couldn’t ask for better service or equipment. We enjoyed it enough to book a second trip to try landing the massive Cubera snapper before the sharks get it. Family trip with 2 teenage boys and we highly recommend , we brought our own snorkeling gear as we always do. Caught trigger fish, grouper, grunts and half of a huge snapper. Honestly the snorkeling was better than Puerto Rico and Hawaii. The next trip we intend to leave more time for swimming with the pigs.
