17 Reasons the Cayman Islands Are the Best Place in the Entire Caribbean

If you're afraid of stingrays, get ready to fall in love with them in the Cayman Islands. There's a large sandbar in the ocean called Stingray City where most snorkeling boats stop during day trips. Once anchored, you hop off the boat and are met with swarms of stingrays. If this sounds scary, it's really not! They're more like puppies who love swimming up against you and being pet. You can even feed them and take pictures while holding them. Just make sure you shuffle your feet instead of taking steps so you don't scare any that may be burrowed under the sand.
