Grand Cayman Catamaran Tour to Stingray City and Rum Point
Description
Visit two of Grand Cayman’s top attractions — Stingray City and Rum Point — on this 5.5-hour tour by luxury 65-foot (20-meter) catamaran. Accessible only by water, Stingray City is famous for its southern stingrays that swim around the sandbar and come up for kisses. Swim and snorkel with them in the shallow water, and then visit Rum Point (2.5 hours) for some free time on the beach to swim, snorkel, relax on the white sand or visit the waterfront bar and restaurant. This family-friendly experience includes pickup and drop-off from Seven Mile Beach hotels.

On my fourth trip to Grand Cayman, I wanted to swim with the Stingrays and snorkel the coral garden again. I chose the Rays and Reef - Rum Point departure this time for something different from the traditional sailboat catamaran tour (which I had done on the three previous visits). This was on a 36-foot Twin Vee Power Catamaran that was much smaller and went much faster. When I got on the boat, Captain Harvey recognized me from previous trips (other years) with Red Sail out of Rum Point, and I, of course, recognized him too! LOVE THAT! He and Conyen (sp?) were great at getting the stingrays for the guests on a wavier day. This tour did not offer professional photography, so new friends captured video & pictures for me. The GIANT stingray named Midnight didn't want to leave my arms, and that made my trip!! Remember, kiss a stingray = 7 years good luck! Snorkeling at the coral gardens was awesome also! A must-do - whenever in Grand Cayman, in my opinion!!
We loved this tour and actually did two excursions with this company. We went swimming with the stingrays and then were brought to Rum Island. We were lucky to have Morne on both trips, and he was fantastic—full of knowledge and always helping out, whether as the bartender, DJ, or assisting the captain. When my sun hat flew into the ocean, he even tried to get it back! The entire crew was wonderful. We also went snorkeling to see the shipwreck, and the lunch served on the excursion was absolutely delicious. Morne and several other staff members helped us connect with, hold, and swim with the stingrays with complete confidence, which made the experience even more special. I highly recommend this excursion.
What a wonderful experience!!! This is a no brainer, it is the best part of my trip. I have come to the Cayman Islands twice now and both time I did the trip to stingray city stingray city. The crew was phenomenal, Marcus and Myron made the experience top notch. The photos Marcus took I will cherish forever! The boats from red sail sports are clearly the nicest that go to string ray city, and you know you are with the best group possible. This is a 100% MUST BOOK!!!
Was picked up at the hotel. Processed to the boat. Everyone was professional & went out of their way to make sure everyone had a good time.
Very fun. Would have liked a different genre of music to dance to but other than that it was close to perfect. Everyone was very professional and friendly.
We used Red Sail twice. The boats were nice, clean, and easily boarded. The company’s associates were incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. Both of our tours started and ended on time. The memories they helped our family create were wonderful. Highly recommend.
Amazing experience 35 minutes on a very smooth ride to the StingRays, full bar available, short educational talk about how to touch the Rays. After spending time on the sand bank in the crystal clear waters with lots of fish and Sting Rays, holding A cuddling them, we left for Rum Point, Where you can chill for 2 hrs having lunch or enjoying the water activities, before going back. Excellent value, professional staff.
Amazing trip and incredible experience with the stingrays and snorkelling. The crew were knowledgeable and really friendly and made the trip really special. The catamaran was fantastic and facilities so clean and well prepared.
Worth every penny! Guides are very knowledgeable and booking and pick up and drop off was easy! Highly recommend!
Lovely crew and boat, sting rays were amazing! Rum point was beautiful! We got luck and only had 8 people on our tour.
