August 22, 2008, Newsletter Issue #131: Grand Cayman Stingray City

Tip of the Week

If there is one Cayman Island attraction that has put this island on the world tourism map, it is the scuba diving and snorkeling opportunity known as Stingray City in Grand Caymen. This sheltered bay on the North Sound was the place where local fishermen would come to clean their catch, throwing fish entrails over the side into the clear, shallow water. Southern stingrays, in increasing numbers, congregated there to catch a free meal. One brave divemaster saw what was happening and jumped in the water to swim with rays. The rest is history, as these supposedly dangerous creatures turned out to be docile as puppy dogs. Now no trip would be complete without a dive or snorkel trip to Stingray City in Grand Cayman.
