Enjoy the natural breeze as you take a boat ride to the first stop which is the Coral Gardens/Barrier Reef. There is a very high density of coral heads, which allows you to see lots of fish. Sometimes you can also see wild sea turtles and lobsters. After this you take a short boat ride less than 10 minutes to the World's famous Stingray City Sandbar where you will find southern stingrays in abundance. Pet, feed or even get a massage from one for these stingrays but don't forget to steal a kiss or two for seven years good luck. You are not done yet, after this your next stop is the Starfish Beach.

Great excursion. We highly recommend it! The boat crew helped make the experience as such! Only recommendation would be to possibly give a little history about the stingrays we were fortunate enough to hold, kiss, and feed!

Great excursion - with hotel pickup from seven mile beach. The guides gave clear instructions and held the stingrays to interact with. At one point my hat flew off - they even turned the boat around while one of the guides jumped in the water to retrieve it !
