Snorkeling Grand Cayman Style

Thursday, June 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 Soto’s Cruises 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.
