Are there any Stingray Excursions once in port?

[mvh]

We are really undecided if everyone wants to do the same thing once we get in to Grand Cayman, so we really don't want to commit.  Do they still have people in port holding signs for Stingray City tours?  It's been about ten years since I've been there and the did then?  Also, do any of them just take you to the stingrays and back?  We really don't need to snorkel, but we will.  Will any drop you off at 7 mile beach and let you catch a cab back to the ship? Has anyone done any of this?

Sting Ray City is on the other side of the island from 7 Mile ..... so doubtful a StC tour will drop you at 7 Mile . . . 

 

If you see my other recent post with a map . . . StC is near Rum Point . . . 7 Mile is north of the anchorage

Most cruise-ship-applicable Stingray City excursions leave from the Governors Harbour area or other spots on that side of the north sound, not from the Rum Point area.  If you ask, most will drop you off at SMB, usually at the end closest to the port (Royal Palms) since it’s on the way and the other end would require them to backtrack.  You’d have to find your own way back to the port afterwards.

 

If you are fine with crowds, I’m sure there will be someone offering day-of excursions at the port.  However, the best operators, the ones you hear lots of talk about here on CC, will be booked up in advance.

I've seen several that say they will drop you at the beach afterwards. However, I'm pretty sure it is companies that will be booked in advance.

Stingray Sailings would be perfect for you.  We have done the stingray tour 5+times. The snorkeling is not extremely long.  Beautiful coral and fish.  You will have 1-2 hours for the beach. Perfect day!!!

 

If you go to the white canopy - Ask for Chip from Stingray Sailings.  If he has availability. He will gladly add you to his group.  Best guide and fabulous catamaran!
