We had a great time. Captain Jason & Zack were extremely friendly, and professional. They took us to several spots for snorkeling, swimming, and to see the sights. I would absolutely recommend booking with him.

Went with three families on a 6 hour excursion to see the sting rays, star fish and also a recommendation near by called Kaibo for lunch and drinks(best recommendation the guys could have made). After that we still had time and had literally the best last hour we could have asked for. We wanted some good snorkeling away from others and they took us near the reef where we saw fish, sting rays, turtles that literally swam up to us along with the clearest waters! This excursion made our trip and the guys were amazing!!
If we come back to the caymans- which i hope we do, I’d go back out with them in a heartbeat!!

Fantastic and knowledgeable captain and crew! Got so up close and personal with the stingrays, very cool experience. Also snorkeling, beach spot with love starfish and the lunch spot was delicious
David_G, Feb 2026
Stingrays in Cayman Islands are of a variety that are highly unlikely to sting. I was concerned about that but, was assured it would be quite rare for this to happen with the Cayman Island variety of Stingray. With that said, I was very comfortable feeding the Stingrays and holding them. Our two guides were superb. They gently wrangled up a few Stingrays for my daughter and I to feed, hold and even give a brief kiss. A Super experience that would not have been even close to as good without our fantatic guides comfort level with the Stingrays. A lifetime memory with my daughter was created. At 15yo, she gave the experience a 10/10

We had a great experience! This was the highlight of our vacation! Captain Zach did a great job. We saw stingrays, turtles, star fish, etc.
Jason_P, Dec 2025
Crew was exceptional and very attentive. Worked around the crowds as much as possible at stingray city.
Andra_K, Dec 2025
Captain Jason and crew were fabulous. Had to dodge some rain but they did an amazing job. Plus, they had the most incredible underwater camera and shared the most beautiful pictures.
Jim_P, Dec 2025
Had a great relaxing experience with Capt Jason and Zack! Took us where we wanted to go and flexible on the time we spent at each location. Absolutely appreciative the private charter versus large crowded boat. For example we got to hold the sting rays, turtles and visit the star fish. Great recommendation for lunch as well. Well done! Even took go Pro pictures and sent them to us for free!
Kristen_P, Jun 2025
Capt. Zach and Drew were wonderful! Our family enjoyed an unforgettable experience with the stingrays, snorkeled with a turtle, saw starfish and ended our day with a delicious beachside lunch at Kaibos, upon their recommendation. The boat was also very comfortable with ample spots to sit/hang out both in the shade and out. Don’t hesitate to book them for an awesome time!
Brian_K, Mar 2025
Great experience swimming with stingrays, snorkeling and great beachside lunch at Kaibo. Zac and Mario were friendly, knowledgeable and took great care of us. There is no alcohol included, so if you want some drinks, you will need to bring them with you. You also need to bring your own towels, so luckily for us, the guys at our resort hooked us up on the way out with a bag of towels.
Chris_W, Mar 2025
We had a great time, nice boat, courteous and helpful guides, very accommodating. Will be using them again!
Kathryn_S, Dec 2024
Zack and Mario were fabulous!! They made sure we had a great experience with the Stingray, snorkeling, and visiting the starfish. The boat ride itself was so peaceful!
Christine, Dec 2024
Our group of five had a wonderful experience with our local crew. We had the best experience with the sting rays, we were able to feed them, hold on and pet them, and got to share a kiss for some good luck! Snorkeling through the reef with schools of fish with our guides was also quite the experience. I highly recommend this tour with our guides.

Great boat with a great crew! Our family of 9 had an amazing day visiting stingray city, seeing starfish, and going snorkeling. We even got to cast out a line (didn't catch anything though). The boat was spacious and the water and soda was cold. We had everything we needed for a fun day out in the Caymans. Highly recommend. Thank you!

This was by far the best day of our trip. Jason and Kenny are awesome!!!! No words to explain how great they both made our experience!!!
They were so informative, kind, and patient with us. There were 9 of us (5- kids ages 6 to 12) - we hung out with them all day. We modified the
Itinerary based on what we wanted to do. I would definitely recommend booking this experience. You will not be disappointed!

This was our third time to the island and hands down this was the best experience. We did a private charter with captain jason who was amazing and personable. There was 11 of us and he had plenty of room on his boat for us. We loved our experience so much that we booked him twice the week we were there. I also want to compliment Terrance (First Mate day1) for amazing photos and a lot of them, thank you. Kenny (First Mate day 2) for finding us a nurse shark, that was awesome. Zach who helped Captain Jason with our experience in the bioluminescent bay, what an amazing adventure. I can’t say enough about captain Jason and his crew, thank you so much for making this so memorable for me and my family!

We had the best experience with Jason and Kenny! We had a group of 10 with 6 adults and 4 kids, and they had everything we needed! They were personable, knowledgeable, and truly cared for the island, its sea life, and their guests. Jason made sure we were getting the experiences and pictures we wanted throughout the whole tour, and we never felt rushed. I would absolutely book them again when we return to Cayman!
Michelle_J, Jun 2024
Our original charter day had to be rescheduled due to inclement weather but communication and ease for this was great. Our day on the boat was the highlight of our trip! Our three kids had the best time. The boat team pointed out all marine life while snorkeling and made it a very special experience for them. Will book again when we visit next!
Jessica_K, Apr 2024
Doing a private tour is the way to go! The first time we did Sting ray city 3 years ago was with a huge group and barely had any interaction…this time Captain Jason and Kenny were prepared and brought so many around us. Kenny found the star fish and explained so much to us. Every thing was on our time and we didn’t feel rushed.
Norma_C, Mar 2024
We had a great experience with Jason and Kenny. They were very knowledgeable and provided a safe environment for our group (6 adults and 2 young children). Our visit to Sting Ray City was awesome. We were able to hold the sting rays (Barbie) but what really impressed us was Jason’s knowledge and care for the rays. We made 2 other stops one at Rum Point to snorkel (Kenny helped us find an eel (Sparkie), lobster as well as many other beautiful fish). Next stop was Star Fish Island where we were able to hold several different Sea Stars. We chose not to stop for lunch and instead spent the rest of our 6 hour time fishing. Both Kenny and Jason helped all of us try to catch the big one!!! Over all we had a wonderful time. The boat itself had plenty of room, beverages and a “head”. We are looking forward to our next boat adventures with jason and Kenny ! Thank so much!!!!!

Jason and Zach were both great! Both very knowledgeable, personable, kind, and attentive. It was a windy day and the water at Stingray City was too rough for the little ones so we had to leave pretty quickly. After a wonderful time Starfish Point they took us to a different location that was calmer and we were still able to have a great time swimming with, and learning about, stingrays. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience in this tour. The highlight for me was the snorkeling. Kenny had fish food with him so many fish were coming towards us. He stayed with me the entire time which I appreciated because I’m not a strong swimmer. The boat was amazing as we were able to sit on the top and had great views. Wish I booked a full day tour day not just 4 hours. Will definitely come back and book again.

Our group of 10 for a bachelorette had the best time. Jason took us to Stingray City, Starfish Point, and two snorkeling spots - one where we even saw a huge eel. Both Jason and Kenny were MVPs and made the day very special for us. Can't recommend this trip enough!
