What travelers say
★ 4.8 · 4008 reviews"Amazing value for a private charter. The boat was spotless, the captain was fun and knowledgeable, and we had the whole boat to ourselves. Did Stingray City plus two snorkel spots. For six people, it cost less than a resort excursion."

"We wanted to do Stingray City without being on a big tourist catamaran. This was the answer. Just our family, a small fast boat, and a captain who knew every good spot. In and out of the sandbar before the crowds arrived."

"Booked this as a surprise for a group birthday. Everyone loved it. The water off Grand Cayman is so clear you can see the bottom in 20 feet. Small boat means you get into spots no catamaran can reach. Unforgettable morning."
