Amazing experience!! My husband and I came from a cruise to do this excursion. It was so fun, we loved seeing the stingrays and the beautiful water. The staff was great and we got back with plenty of time to board our ship!

Itinerary
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.
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.
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.

The tour is pretty straightforward. The guide and the captain were both pretty laid-back and easygoing. The group was quite large. I think that limited interaction somewhat and made it harder to learn more about the places we visited and the species we saw.
Absolutely such a great experience would do it again 10 out of 10 so fun so gorgeous and beautiful! Please don’t miss out
Terrific crew and very well organized making the most of each stop we visited. They were engaging and made sure everyone was addressed and had fun.
It was a great experience. The guides assist and are there for support and guidance. They provide you with life vests if needed.
Although the sea was a bit rough, the snorkelling was good, on the sand bar with stingrays amazing and then another stop to see and handle star fish in the sea which was a new experience for us. We felt safe and equipment was available and good quality. It wasn’t anyone’s fault that it was harder to stand with the rougher sea. Ok if you’re a swimmer but worth wearing life jacket if not.
Very easy to check-in with this tour from the cruise port. Friendly transportation. Great crew aboard the ship. You can take your own photos, no pressure to buy additional photos. So cool to touch and kiss sting rays and to be up close with so many starfish! Phenomenal price for the experience.
We had so much fun. The tour guides were friendly and courteous. There was water and soda available for us to hydrate.
This was definitely an experience to do in the Caymans. The staff was fun and explained everything simply. Water and flavored sodas were provided, definitely pack a few bags of chips if you get snacky or didn't have breakfast! For as big as our group was there was definitely plenty of time to interact with the stingrays. Again, such a fun, beautiful experience. This was a great price considering transportation was included and the multiple stops. My friends and I loved it! Would recommend again
Great day and lots of fun! 30 minutes of snorkeling in 10-15 feet of water. 30 minutes at Stingray City in waist deep water. The guides held the stingrays so we could touch and even kiss them. Yes, kiss them. Last stop was Starfish beach. The starfish were plentiful and photogenic. Highly recommend this excursion.
There are several stingray tours, but what stood out to me about this one was they provided the transportation and would pick you up at your hotel. The whole experience was so fun. The guides were very friendly and experiencing the stingrays was amazing. This is a must do when visiting Grand Cayman
This was a fun excursion. We got picked up at the port and bused to the boat. There we loaded too about 30 minutes we snorkel for about 40 minutes then we headed to the sand bar to feed and see the stingrays. We all got to feed them and hold them. It was nice the stingrays are large and we spent about 35 minutes there then we headed to starfish beach where we seen starfish. I would definitely recommend this trip. It was well organized and the staff were knowledgeable and friendly.
Stingray City excursion was absolutely incredible! Mark, our tour Director was very accommodating, he even purchased a squishy toy set for our daughter who was asking for one as she gets nervous on boat. He brought it to her at the boat dock after we rode the bus over. Adrian and Carlos were very informative and entertaining. Carlos made sure that everyone had their pictures and videos taken with the stingrays and they were very interactive. We will definitely be booking again!
Great experience. We will never forget it. Held stingrays picked up starfish. Even got to pet a sea turtle. Nobody was trying to push over priced pictures on you. Captain Sheldon and Leland were just amazing!! I would highly recommend to everyone. Great value actually way better then bio bay.
We had an amazing experience with Stingray City! The whole trip was very well organized from start to finish. The crew was fantastic — friendly, professional, and genuinely fun to be around. Everything was smooth and enjoyable, and we never felt rushed. The experience itself was incredible, and the team made it even more special. You can tell they really care about their guests and want everyone to have a great time. Highly recommend them if you’re visiting Grand Cayman! We had such a great time and would definitely do it again!
Excellent staff and a fantastic excursion. Informative and unique. Loved every minute. Easy to find when disembarked cruise.
Perfect. No issues………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………….. Nice air conditioning in van…..
Excellent experience. Picked up at hotel. Crew on boat was great. Stingray City was amazing, crystal clear water.
Tour guides are super helpful and entertaining! I would highly recommend this tour it was a great experience
This tour was SO much fun! 🐠🌊 We got to get up close and personal with the stingrays—we held them, fed them, and even kissed them! 🥰 We also got to hold beautiful starfish and made a stop to snorkel, which was such a fun addition to the day. The best part? Doing it all with my 5-year-old! 🥹🩷 The experience was family-friendly, exciting, and memorable from start to finish. There was so much to see and do, and it was the perfect mix of adventure and fun. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Grand Cayman! 🌴✨🐚
The tour was phenomenal! The tour operators were kind and informative. They interacted with the guests and ensure we were safe.
Great experience, everything very professional from checking in to getting dropped off on time. Aliano and Bradley were phenomenal on the tour!
I had a great time! Me and my boyfriend went and it wasn’t too crowded and they made sure everyone each had a turn with holding stingrays / starfish. They really prioritized hydration and safety which I loved and felt very comfortable.
Originally booked for the morning tour but for a phone call as only 2 people has booked. Switched to the afternoon tour. Tour did not disappoint. Picked up from hotel on time and taken to board boat. Starfish point to start with. 2 guides on boat were very good, next stop was Stingrays again guides were brilliant letting you handle them and take plenty of pictures. Last and final stop was to snorkel at a few coral reefs. Free water and fizzy juice on board. Enjoyable trip
What an amazing experience from beginning to end. Highly recommend this tour. We were picked up on time and everything went smoothly.
This was a perfect adventure for all ages! The boat was size was comfortable and the wildlife was plentiful!
Bradly and Carlos were very nice. There was a lady that dropped her sunglasses in the water at the pier. Carlos dove 14 feet to help her get her sunglasses back. The stingray city part was the most fun. They’re very familiar with the rays and gave us a great time interacting with the rays. They are also very clear with instructions. Highly recommended.
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.
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.
Adeel and Emma were awesome! We had a great time. We even ended up kissing a Stingray!
The staff were great! They ensured that we were safe and had a good time. It is was overall great experience!
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).
Know how to swim. Be very comfortable in open water. Leave your fear on land. Steve Irwins death by stingray was a freak accident.
Such a great experience for the reasonable price. Very professional and friendly crew. I would definitely go again!!!!!
Very fun and informative guides. Three different spots with different marine life to observe. Our guide helped us hold and feed giant rays.
Great experience my daughter loved it and they are very kid friendly and helpful. Every stop was an adventure.
amazing experience with Stingray!!!
This was a fun experience! We got to see and (safely) hold starfish, snorkel for a little bit to see some nice coral reefs, and of course, the stingrays! The guides were wonderful and very helpful. Loved that they offer pick up and drop off service.
This entire experience was amazing! Alejandro & Bradley were fantastic. Highly recommend them to all!
We visited the stingrays, snorkled, and starfish city. It was a great experience was kind and knowledgeable guides - jason, ashley, and one other guide. There also more than plenty water and soda on board and a place under the boat to store our stuff so it wouldnt get wet. The shuttle was also cery convenient and nice.
WOW! What an incredible experience!! Our guides were so knowledgeable and interactive! Played some fun music on the boat ride! Spectacular waters!! An ethical way to experience animals in their own habitat! We set out to starfishcove and got to snorkel and pick up starfish-as specifically instructed to not bring them to the surface as they will die. We then set out to the sandbar to experience swimming with the stingrays! They brought calamari to feed them and let us hold them and showed us one that was pregnant! We finished the tour at the coral reefs where we saw colorful tropical fish and were informed not to touch the coral as it would die. Would highly recommend and do again if in the Cayman Islands!
Wonderful guides & boat! These gentleman were very knowledgeable about the area, gave us plenty of time at each stop, allowed those who were comfortable to feed & handle the stingrays & hold the starfish. They even played fun music as we journeyed along the coastline. Highly recommend for adults and families!!
Plenty of stingrays, starfish, lots of fish to see at the snorkel stop. Amazing interactions with the stingrays facilitated by the guides.
Very fun def will do again!!! Staff was amazing and very helpful!! ! Great for kids and families!!!!!
Wonderful experience! It is the full 3 hrs. When viewing the starfish, be aware of Jellyfish. My son got stung by a Jellyfish on his thigh. Swimming with the sting rays was the highlight of our entire trip. Would really recommend this activity.
Very nice tour. We got picked up at the hotel for a short drive to the boat. Boat was small but not overcrowded. The guides were courteous and helpful. It was fun. Enough time for all 3 activities. Highly recommend. Wish there was music on the boat.
Great experience, no disappointment. The stingray part was the best. The two guides were professional, knowledgeable and made sure the experience was enjoyable for all. The starfish were in shallow water at a beach area. The stingrays at waist deep water or deeper at a sandbar. The snorkeling at 12 feet deep but life jackets provided for buoyancy.
Everything was planned well. From pickup at the port to drop off. The guides were friendly and helpful. I was on Big D’s boat and the group was a mix of all ages. It was really fun to see the stingrays, find starfish and go snorkeling. Definitely go if you want a little adventure for a few hours. Bring some snacks. They offer water and soda on the boat.
Fun filled day with great guides, Carlos and Adrian. Awesome snorkeling and the sting rays were super cool and friendly
We brought our two daughters who are in their 20’s- we all enjoyed the 3 activities - 3 hours went by very quickly! Perfect for all ages from little kids to anyone who likes the water and can climb a boat ladder. The captain and crew were sooooo good! They were kind, helpful, played great music A+. ‘My daughters were a little scared of the stingrays but the crew convinced them it was safe and even helped my daughter hold one! A must do if visiting Grand Cayman
