News Americas, Â Tues. July 29, 2014: Can you guess where this is?
The Stingray City Sandbar is one of the top Cayman attractions. Stingray City is home to a whole fleet of southern stingrays who congregate near the shore. The stingrays began gathering in the area decades ago when fisherman used to clean fish on the shallow sand bars. The stingrays would forget their normally shy dispositions and feast on the guts of the cleaned fish. Soon the stingrays began to associate the sound of a boat motor with food. In the late 1980s, divers started feeding squid to the stingrays, one of their favourites. Today, Stingray City is a readily accessible, once-in-a-lifetime Grand Cayman experience for anyone who wishes to see one of nature’s most majestic creatures up close.
