There are possibly dozens of companies that can take you to Stingray City, but MarineLand Tours made our trip so much more amazing & comfortable too! My husband & I are a bit up in years so we have a few joint issues. Being able to walk down a very normal set of steps rather than a ladder made such... More

Went with Dexter's Fantasea Tours much smaller but very well run tour. 15 total on our catamaran - Dexter and Simon were very familiar and knowledgeable about the Stingrays - we also snorkeled after our visit - would recommend for families and couples alike

Don't miss the opportunity to see and touch these beautiful gentle sea creatures. It's not for the faint-hearted or really little children, but a great experience.

We had previously swam with stingrays in Moorea, French Polynesia, so I wasn't super excited. However, we booked Stingray City with Captain Marvin's. However, once we got there, I loved it. The water is clear, stingrays are friendly, great time!

We took trip from the White Sand Sports. We were the ONLY group on the sandbar. The encounters with stingrays were unforgettable and "a must" if you visiting Grand Cayman, preferably with White Sand Sports. We loved it!

Exceptional experience. Capt. Marvin's boats and crews treat you right. Go when cruise ships are not in port as it is less crowded and you can interact with the sting rays best this way. They are gentle, smooth to touch and yes, do kiss one!

If you want to experience nature at it's best take a trip on one of the any boats to Sting Ray City. You'll travel by boat for about 30 minutes to what appears to be the middle of the ocean where a reef makes the water about four feet deep. Here you'll find hundreds of gentle giant stingrays. The captain... More

You can get here through just about any tour company on the island. Aim for $25-40 US per person depending on how many other stops you might make (i.e. snorkeling or to Rum Point). Get your photos taken, splash around. It's 100% safe - just don't snorkel here so you know where your feet are at all times! Avoid going... More

The guides were awesome! Very professional! We did this excursion last year when we cruised with Carnival (I'm just a little late getting the review on Trip Advisor). But it was a great experience!!
