With reasonable prices, men and women of all ages can delight in the breathtaking sensations this marine lover’s paradise has to offer.
Tour Hours
There are usually three main stops in a regular venture around Stingray City, so the whole trip usually lasts for 3 to 4 hours. Morning and afternoon tours are available. It all depends on the package you avail of, so it’s better to keep yourself informed through communicating with your host.
Delightful Destinations
Regular packages’ itinerary kicks off when the guests are picked up from the cruise ship terminal or their respective hotels often found at the Seven Mile Beach. Aboard their designated boats, trippers make their way from one stop to another, always assisted by a friendly crew. Stingray City Sandbar is customarily the first destination, followed by Barrier Reef, and finally, the Coral Garden. Afterwards, everyone is sent back to the terminal or to their hotels.
Stingray City Sandbar
Being literally in touch with nature isn’t a hard feat for Stingray City Sandbar visitors. The sand bar, layered with sparkling water only 3 to 5 feet deep and considered as Cayman Islands’ most popular snorkeling site, is the ideal spot for you to easily befriend and interact with its Southern Stingray inhabitants.
With the aid of knowledgeable crew members, you’ll surely be well-informed and secured in this exciting endeavor, so just enjoy feeding, petting, snorkeling and swimming with these gentle aquatic species — a unique and refreshing experience you should never pass out on!
And of course, before leaving, don’t forget to kiss at least one of around 50 of these rays goodbye so you’ll be blessed with 7 years of good luck. An interesting freebie, don’t you think?
Barrier Reef
Just near the Stingray City Sandbar is yet another enchanting destination: the Barrier Reef. Upon delving into the clear blue, 10 to 15 feet in depth, armed with snorkeling equipment, you’ll find yourself surrounded by a rainbow of tropical fish and coral formations. This place will surely satisfy anyone’s visual cravings.
