The stingrays began congregating in this area several decades ago when fishermen used to clean fish on the shallow sandy drifts. The stingrays immediately forgot their usual shyness and had a banquet on the intestines of the cleaned fish. Soon the stingrays began to associate the sound of the boat's engine with food. In the late 1980s, divers began feeding stingrays squid, which is one of their favorite foods. Enjoy an absolutely unique experience that you can only have once in a lifetime and only here. No matter how often you enter the crystal clear turquoise waters, you will always see the graceful glide of small schools of stingrays calmly swimming past you in their natural habitat. Enjoy this unique experience of touching wildlife and feeding stingrays, while snorkeling among magnificent coral reefs and colorful tropical fish. Standing in just three feet of water, you'll be surrounded by more than two dozen friendly stingrays. The town of Stingray in Grand Cayman is fun and suitable for all ages of tourists.
