What is stingray city? Is it really a city?

It is a sandy bar where the stingray come to be feed by the tour charters. You can pet them, feed them and swim with them. Check out Captain Marvin's website at www.captainmarvins.com

I think that it is at Grand Cayman.

It is Grand Cayman.

On a recent cruise (February) a bunch of us chartered a boat from Captain Marvin. It worked out to about $35/person.

We were picked up at the pier in a bus and proceeded semi-directly (a stop at a liquor store for sodas, snacks, and other items) to Marve's place. For those without their own snorkel equipment, Marve provided.

Because it was a group cruise, everything was arranged ahead of time.

What was nice is that we were "alone" at each snorkel/swim stop with other day boats following us.

Watch out for those stingrays. They have a nasty habit of "clipping". As in football.

And have fun !!! Everyone should do it once.

Happy sails !
