Description

Our exclusive tour will transport you to three of the most remarkable and unforgettable locations in the Cayman Islands. Experience the awe-inspiring beauty of Starfish Point, Coral Garden, and Stingray City. An expert team from the Cayman Islands guides the 3.5-hour experience. The excursion offers complimentary transportation to and from George Town port or Seven Mile Beach resorts. The activities available include snorkeling, feeding stingrays, and beverages.

STINGRAY CITY - This is one of the top attractions within the Cayman Islands. With some of the largest southern stingrays in the Caribbean, Stingray City is a must when visiting the Cayman Islands. On this three stop tour, you will have the opportunity to swim among some of the largest stingrays and most colorful reefs surrounding the Cayman Islands. In Stingray City the crystal clear water does not exceed five feet; the highlight of the excursion is the picture taking moment. With the assistance of boat crew, visitors will have the chance to pose near stingrays for the perfect picture, a moment not to be missed.

20 min

STARFISH POINT - During the final stop of Starfish Snorkel, guests can relax in shallow water and view various species of starfish with friends and family for a great photo opportunity. Starfish snorkeling is the highlight of the tour for many, especially for visitors with young kids.

25 min

CORAL GARDENS - Visitors will be able to witness a wide range of marine organisms and discover a vast array of colorful coral formations when they visit Coral Gardens. Furthermore, there have been instances in which turtles and stingrays have been observed spending time at this location. Despite the fact that the water depth in this particular spot can fluctuate anywhere from eight to twelve feet, it is exceptionally clear, clean and stunning.

Great morning!

Starfish beach was amazing as were kissing the stingrays! The crew (all two of them!) on The Big Dee let us know in advance what to expect and how to be protective of the sea around us. For me, a grandmother with grands in tow, I can’t say enough about how attentive the crew was to all ages and abilities. Thank you so much.

Excellent tour

This was a fantastic experience. Our 2 guides were friendly and professional. The meeting point was easy to find right at the cruise port. Well organised and we loved seeing the stingrays and starfish. Good value for the money.

SO Much Fun!

Really happy with our tour/snorkeling trip. Staff was great! Always there to make sure our experience was the best it could be! They were great with kids who were snorkeling for the first time or all who were apprehensive with starfish/stingrays. Felt like the time allowed at each stop was perfect. Complete trip was a bit longer than anticipated. TY for a great trip! Only recommendations would be to include "bring snacks" to the list of necessities for trip (exclusions).

Stingray Puppies

Know how to swim. Be very comfortable in open water. Leave your fear on land. Steve Irwins death by stingray was a freak accident.
