Sunset in Sting Ray City: Snorkeling the Grand Cayman way

Saturday, May 26th, 2007

Get a great deal @

. Often times, the name Stingray City is misinterpreted because there are no tall buildings. There are no restaurants. You will never see a car, bus, or train; however, there is a wealth of stingrays to be found and travelers take pleasure in mingling them. One can enjoy this unique experience of touching and feeding a stingray together with snorkeling among splendid coral reefs and vivid tropical fish.

Stingrays have grown accustomed to human contact and the graceful giants waste no time surrounding their guests, looking for their favorite delicacy: the tender morsels of squid that the dive or snorkel guide will bring along. This trip typically occurs in the heart of the sandbar where the water is shallow—only about 3 to 5 feet deep.

Known throughout the world, Stingray City has been featured on many prominent television documentaries. Additionally, this exotic snorkeling and scuba diving location has been used as underwater advertising backdrops for everything from cars to batteries. Diving and snorkeling here is one of the world’s most popular and unique tourist attractions and has been called “the best snorkeling experience in the world.” But for every diver or snorkeler who dares enter the water for their first time, with these primitive-looking creatures lurking just below their feet, the adrenaline still flows and the heart still pumps. It is still a world-class experience.

Snorkeling Grand Cayman Style

Monday, May 7th, 2007

Have you ever wondered what great snorkeling the Cayman Islands have?  Plan your trip now to Grand Cayman and reserve a spot on Soto’s Cruises.  The Cayman Islands have some of the most breathtaking underwater scenery in the world and since 1985 have been escorting people to the Coral Gardens and Stingray City.  Millions of visitors come to the islands for these very reasons.  The warm tropical weather and crystal clear water are so inviting that you would be foolish not to take this opportunity.  Two trips are offered daily so you can plan your day around them and see more in Grand Cayman.  Call us now or reserve your spot online.

 

Stingray City and The Coral Gardens have become legends with the Cayman Islands.  The Coral Gardens offer a close up look at fascinating coral formations and an interesting variety of fish and other interesting sea creatures such as giant lobsters.  If you tell somebody you went to Cayman, the first thing they will ask is, “did you go to Stingray City?”  The definitive answer must be YES and it was AWSOME.  Stingrays are some of the most fascinating creatures that you actually can get up close and personal.  For many years these creatures have become domesticated with all the human contact they encounter on a daily basis.  We also provide food for the Stingrays so they never shy too far away.  Don’t miss the opportunity of a lifetime and make a reservation today. 

 

If you are concerned about your swimming abilities; don’t be.  Both destinations on the cruise offer a non-threatening environment to the skilled and novice swimmer.  The Coral Gardens reach a depth of 10 feet and Stingray City is a sand barge that reaches from 3-5 feet.  Soto’s Cruises provides lifejackets for children and for anybody that has trouble continuously swimming.  The Sea Hunt crew watches over you and is prepared to help snorkelers in distress.  Both locations provide gentle waters to create a feeling of swimming in a giant pool.

 

Are you afraid of being stuck on a boat for two hours?  Our 40 foot cruiser “Sea Hunt” has all the accommodations to make your snorkel and stingray City trip a pleasant experience. We provide a hospitable environment aboard our cruiser.  The “Sea Hunt” is equipped with the following facilities. 

The cost of the two-hour trip includes,
