// what to expect

One legendary sandbar. Two spectacular reefs. Three unforgettable ways to experience Grand Cayman beneath the surface. Cruise across the sparkling North Sound to world-famous Stingray City, where graceful southern stingrays glide through warm, shallow water above a white-sand bottom. Then take the adventure beneath the Caribbean at both Coral Gardens and the Barrier Reef. There is no choosing between snorkeling locations on this experience—you visit both. Discover the colorful coral formations and tropical marine life of Coral Gardens before exploring the wider underwater landscapes of Grand Cayman’s Barrier Reef. Whether you’re arriving by cruise ship or staying on the island, round-trip transportation, a certified crew, snorkeling equipment, water, and fruit punch are included. From the famous Stingray City sandbar to two completely different reef environments, this is Grand Cayman for travelers who want more time beneath the Caribbean.
