About this tour, from the operator
This tour takes you to the famous Stingray City sandbar, where the wild stingrays swim around you in shallow water. The crew will show you how to safely feed these stingrays if you like, and the on-board photographer will take memorable photos of you and your family and friends, available for purchase. The snorkeling stop will either be at the Barrier Reef or the Coral Gardens. Because of differences in ship time zones, some of these tours may not be available during daylight saving time in the United States.

Very important for cruise guests: In the unlikely event that your ship anchors on the south side of the island (Spotts) instead of in George Town Harbour, our shuttle buses will be there to pick you up, and our drivers wearing navy blue (or maroon) colored shirt will be there to meet you. After your tour, we will drop you back in George Town where you can find a local bus or taxi to get back to Spotts.
