Description
Our Business is family-owned and operated. Our two stop tour Stingray Sandbar & Coral Gardens Snorkeling Tour kicks off from the Royal Watler Cruise Ship Terminal, and also includes FREE shuttle service from local resorts. We offer complimentary bottled water, juice, snorkeling gear, and squid to feed the stingrays. Enjoy the natural breeze as you take a boat ride to the first stop which is the Coral Gardens/Barrier Reef. There is a very high density of coral heads, which allows you to see lots of fish. Sometimes you can also see wild sea turtles and lobsters. After this you take a short boat ride less than 10 minutes to the World's famous Stingray City Sandbar where you will find southern stingrays in abundance. Swim alongside and experience these beautiful animals up close. You are not done yet, after this your next stop is the Starfish Beach. Our guides will teach you how to properly handle these remarkable creatures.

Great tour easy to find at the port small group
We had a lovely trip with this company. The guides were professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Interacting with the stingrays was an awesome experience.
Amazing Tour Experience This tour was absolutely amazing! The crew was incredibly informative and made sure we were clear on what to expect throughout the experience. They were professional, friendly, and made the entire tour enjoyable from start to finish. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting—you won’t be disappointed!
we missed our tour but the company refunded the full amount and I'm very grateful for that that's fair dealing even though they didn't have to!!!
Our bus driver Duncan was such a humble, amazing gentleman, the two boating tour guides were great and humorous and overall this was an awesome experience! I’ve done it twice and will do it again. Besides, it’s 7 years of good luck when you kiss a Stingray! 😉❤️
We had a wonderful time. Would highly recommend. It was the highlight of our holiday for my 12 and 15 year old boys.
Great experience! Not a bad price for 3.5 hours. Held stingrays, saw so many starfish and snorkeled. Got picked up right at the hotel and dropped back off. The tour guides provided waters and sodas and were very kind.
Fantastic experience well organised and great value for money highly recommended
Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We’re glad you enjoyed the experience and felt it was well organized and a great value. We really appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you again in Cayman!
Great experience. We had a group of 40, and this was the perfect excursion- made sure we were back in time for cruise departure!
Thank you so much for the great review! We’re glad your group of 40 had such a great experience and that everything worked out perfectly with your cruise schedule. We know how important it is to get everyone back on time, so we’re happy we could make the excursion stress-free and enjoyable. We really appreciate you choosing us!
This is an unforgettable adventure. The bus was rustic, and lacked good AC, but the boat ride was very nice. The boat captain and his crew member were very nice. They had water and sodas which was so thoughtful. Once we got to the sandbar the stingrays were everywhere! They let us carry, touch and even kiss them for 7 years of good luck. I can’t believe they are so docile. Later, we went to starfish island and it was so cool seeing so many starfish everywhere. It was an unforgettable experience, I highly recommend.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you had such an unforgettable adventure and enjoyed getting up close with the stingrays and visiting Starfish Point. We’re also glad you appreciated the water and sodas and that our crew made you feel welcome. And of course, we hope that stingray kiss brings you those 7 years of good luck! Thank you for the recommendation and for choosing us!
