About this tour
This four-hour private boat charter takes up to 10 guests to three signature snorkeling spots around Grand Cayman. You'll encounter stingrays at the iconic sandbar, explore the colorful reef systems at Coral Gardens, and wade through shallow waters populated by starfish at Starfish Point. A two-person crew—captain and guide—runs the boat and tailors the itinerary to your group's preferences, eliminating the typical crowded-tour experience. All snorkel gear, flotation vests, water, and onboard showers are included.

What to expect
Your crew meets you at the dock and orients everyone on safety and snorkel technique before departing. The boat heads to Stingray City first, where the sandy bottom sits in shallow, calm water—you'll slip in and interact with the stingrays, which are accustomed to human contact and surprisingly graceful. Next, you motor to Coral Gardens, a deeper site where the reef drops with walls of branching corals and schools of fish. Finally, Starfish Point offers knee-to-waist-deep water where hundreds of starfish scatter across the sand. Throughout, your guide points out marine life and answers questions. The pace is leisurely; there's downtime to relax between stops.
Good to know
Bring reef-safe sunscreen and your own underwater camera, or rent one from the operator. Lunch is not included, so eat beforehand or bring snacks. Infants sit on a guardian's lap. You'll need to sign a liability waiver before boarding. Arrange your own transportation to the dock.
