Experience two of Grand Cayman’s signature marine experiences without giving up the rest of your day. This shorter two-stop adventure combines the famous Stingray City sandbar with a dedicated reef snorkeling stop, making it a great fit whether you’re visiting by cruise or staying on the island.
Start at Stingray City, where you’ll step into clear Caribbean water typically no deeper than five feet (1.5 meters) and observe southern stingrays gliding through their natural habitat.
Then head to either the Barrier Reef or Coral Gardens for snorkeling among coral formations and tropical fish. Your captain chooses the location based on wind, waves, tides, and crowd levels, giving you the opportunity to visit the reef offering better conditions that day.
From standing in the shallow waters of Stingray City to snorkeling among colorful coral and tropical marine life, this compact adventure packs two of Grand Cayman’s signature ocean experiences into one memorable trip.

1Stingray City
Start your two-stop adventure with transportation from participating accommodations in the Seven Mile Beach area or from the designated cruise meeting point. With a shorter itinerary, this tour combines Stingray City and reef snorkeling while leaving you more time to enjoy the rest of your day in Grand Cayman — whether you’re visiting by cruise or staying on the island. Continue to the marina and board your boat for the approximately 30-minute ride across Grand Cayman’s North Sound. At Stingray City, step into the clear, shallow waters of the famous sandbar, typically around waist-deep and no more than about five feet deep. Observe southern stingrays up close in their natural habitat while your crew guides your time in the water. Then return to the boat and continue across the North Sound for your snorkeling stop.
