Pig Beach
Pig Beach is the quirkiest and most impressive attraction in the Bahamas. Pig Beach is designated for the small community of pigs that describe this beach home. The pigs live hereabouts, take dips in the ocean, and are attached to the locals and travelers who make the trek to this isolated island. If you’re admiring how the pigs got here, no one positively knows. They aren’t indigenous to the Bahamas. They are supposed to have been dropped behind either by a seaman or a shipwreck.
