5.00The captain and crew was awesome. They took the time to explain what to expect and the safety of the excursion. We went snorkeling where lobster and stingrays were seen. Then we went to a sandbar and got to hold stingrays and feed them After that I relaxed at a nice beach. A great time was had.
Outstanding wildlife encounters!

5.00This was such a fun way to spend the day at the Cayman Islands Port. The team was great and personable. The drive from port to the excursion was not bad at all. You have time at each stop to take pictures and enjoy the experience. I had a great time with my family and would definitely recommend this.
Great tour company but too busy to really experience the different venues.

5.00It is good and everything it says it is. The Stingray portion is not great. Not the fault of the tour company but just so overwhelming busy you get very limited exposure to multiple Stingray’s. The starfish beach was a nice surprise and very cool.
The meeting spot was easy...

5.00The meeting spot was easy to find in the cruise port there is an area for tours to check in and meet. Look for tents on your left. The boat was large and very nice. We felt very safe and in capable hands.
Great boat, great crew, highly recommend

5.00Even though the weather was not great we had a fantastic time. The waves were kind of rough for snorkeling but the crew made sure we were safe and we felt comfortable. The stingray experience was the highlight of the excursion. Our grandsons loved it.
Once in a lifetime chance

5.00This is an experience you don't want to miss. A chance to swim and hold a stingray. Single over a reef with stingrays swimming below you. And find and hold beautiful starfish under the water. This is my second time doing this excursion and it doesn't get old.
