In Grand Cayman's North Sound, a shallow sandbar has been a gathering place for southern stingrays since fishermen began cleaning catches there decades ago. Today boats bring visitors to stand and snorkel among them.

The area is a protected Wildlife Interaction Zone with rules for handling the animals.

Tips

  • Shuffle your feet on the sand
  • Follow your guide's handling rules
  • Pair with snorkelling at Coral Gardens
