Activity itinerary

Stingray City
  • 35m
  • Admission ticket included
Get ready for an exciting, unique adventure as you swim among the stingrays -- some of the most docile sea creatures in the world! Featured in National Geographic Magazine, Stingray City is the Cayman Islands’ most popular site. Here, 30 to 40 gentle Southern Atlantic stingrays swim freely in 3 to 5 feet of crystal-clear, current-free waters, waiting to see what you've brought them for lunch. It was created by accident in the mid-80s when fishermen returning to port anchored in the calm waters of the Sound to clean their catch and discard bait overboard. The stingrays, drawn by the smell of the fish, quickly became accustomed to the “free meal” and stayed. Today, the rays regularly dine on squid provided by divers and snorkellers. Native Way instructors will show you how to interact with these incredible animals in the only place in the world where you can do so in the wild.
Starfish Point
  • 25m
  • Admission ticket included
Star Fish Point At this location, you will delight in the hunt to seek out beautiful Caribbean starfish. Easily located at this site, the magic begins once the guest finds a starfish. The beauty and colour of these incredible creatures give you a vibe mixed with awe, peacefulness, and happiness. This location is approximately 3 feet deep and suitable for individuals of all ages.
Grand Cayman
  • 35m
Coral Gardens A coral reef covered in 10 feet of clear, turquoise water, Coral Gardens features some of the most spectacular formations found in the world. Here you'll encounter an incredible variety of tropical fish, stunning Moray eels, amazing underwater plants and an array of other sea life.

This experience was one of our favorites!! We loved that we traveled with a smaller group for a more intimate experience, there was 15 of us max. Stingrays are amazing, the starfish are cool too but we really enjoyed the food boat at the starfish stop. Chicken wings are delicious there (they take cc if you don’t have cash on you)! We also got to snorkel and got to see an eel as our guide fed it. The guides are fun and knowledgeable. Sheldon showed us fresh conch, how to crack the shell and pull the conch out, and we even got to taste it!! Thank you, Captain Everton and Sheldon for a memorable experience! The timing of the tour was just right too, not too short, not too long. Would highly recommend!

You can not ask for anything more from this operation. Exceptional service from Both Capt. Charles and his Mate Leelan. They were attentive to those on board and exceptional at Stingray City. They provide tons of time to take photos and provided detailed instructions about interacting and posing with the Rays. Just a BLAST. Starfish Point was an opportunity to handle the the starfish, again, with perfect advice to protect them. The coral reef stop was primarily a bunch of coral heads with the typical reef fish. And, on this occasion, if you didn't get enough stingray time on Stop One we had some more join us on this Stop. By the way, they provide you with mask, fin and where appropriate, snorkels (they, Cayman Govt., do not allow a snorkel to be used at Stingray City). Also, if you our buoyancy challenged, they have noodles and life-vests. Onboard they provide you with water and a couple different fruit juices. You may bring your own beverages and place them in the cooler. Great job all around!

We had a great time! Captain Overtan and Leeland were excellent hosts! The snorkeling was ok but we're amateurs so we weren't expecting anything more. Although when a stingray came around Leeland dove straight down and brought it up for us to see. Stingray city was a great experience. We have swam with them before at other locations but never interacted with them like this. You can tell that Overtan and Leeland really care about the safety of their passengers but also the safety of the rays. That was truly the highlight of the trip. Starfish point was nice. There were several starfish to see/hold but didn't need to spend a whole lot of time there. There's no rum punch on this cruise unlike most others but ur welcome to byob. Overall was a really good time and definitely worth the money. I thought it was rather inexpensive for what you get. It was a small group (13 total guests i think) so everyone received personal attention.

Was a very great experiance. Total we were a Group of 8 people on a big boat. Great and friendly staff. Better book this than a Trip with your cruise. Its way cheaper and not a packed group of 50-60 people.

What an awesome tour! The staff went above and beyond and added special touches to our tour; the conch salad was the most delicious tasting I have had the pleasure of eating in years. The snorkeling, stingrays and starfish was a day filled with excitement and fun! Book this tour and you will not be disappointed! Patricia-Northern California

This was one of the best excursions we have ever been on. From the great communication by Sharon prior to the tour, to the smooth driving by Eldon, and the outstanding tour guides we had in Sheldon in Everton, it was all top notch! Stingray City has to be experienced to be believed. I thought it was going to be a commercialized venture , but it was a completely natural phenomenon that was otherworldly. Everton had a keen understanding of the behavior of the stingrays and showed us how to handle them safely. We also appreciated how he handled them with great gentleness and respect compared to some of the other guides from other boats who seemed to be a lot rougher with them. Starfish point was the same way. It was magical to find these starfish congregating in this area and being able to observe them in their natural habitat. The snorkeling that we did was some of the best snorkeling I've done in my life. I have snorkeled in Puerto Rico, Bahamas, Aruba, Bonaire, the Western Caribbean, and Bermuda and found the snorkeling that Sheldon and Everton found to be the best that I've experienced. There were so many varieties of fish everywhere. We even saw some sea turtles. Sheldon showed off his diving and chef skills by retrieving 10 conch and preparing a few of them in a delicious and fresh ceviche! We brought my father-in-law with us and even though he was not able to join in the water sports, Sheldon and Everton were very hospitable toward him and kept his glass full of rum punch! At Starfish point, there were some tourists that got stranded by their guide and when they asked Sheldon and Everton for a ride back, they happily obliged and were so very kind to them. Native Way is a great company. I hope we make it back to Grand Cayman to do another tour with them in the future.
