This was our second adventure with Captain Crosby - the first one over 15 years ago. Thankfully, he hasn't changed a bit! This time we were able to bring our three teenagers along for snorkeling and a visit out to Stingray City. The afternoon was filled with wonderful stories from Capt. Crosby, a little singing and relaxing before we set... More

We went out with Captain Crosby two weeks ago.. Initially I was a little worried about getting sucked into a massive tourist trap when reading about Stingray City, but it was one of the most amazing experiences we've had while "interacting" with nature.. We had a great time, I'm so glad I booked with him. We had a fantastic experience... More

The tour was booked with Hammerhead Watersports. The adress provided by a friend, who has been there twice before. Depends on the size of the group - the Captain decides, what boat to take. The smaller Trimaran was good enough for us 10. A little Bus picked us up at the port. Went out for 15 minutes ride to the... More

Captain Crosby uses a small boat and is very personal. He claims he was the first person to take tourists to Stingray City over 60 years ago. Regardless of the truth of this statement, he knows the area very well and knows the best snorkeling spots. More

Captain Crosby is the best for stingray city! He took us out there and he was truly knowledgeable. He picked up the stingray and we fed and kissed it. We spent about 30 minutes at stingray city and then went to the barrier reef. We spent about 45 minutes at the barrier reef and he provided all of the snorkel... More

We have visited stingray city several times a year with Capt. Crosby for over ten years. It is absolutely the highlight of our trip. His love of the island and knowledge about all things local is amazing. I can't imagine Cayman without a trip with him. More

Best trip ever. Captain Crosby is a true Caymanian treasure. He provides a highly personalized experience that is unforgettable and he ensures that all ages feel comfortable with the stingrays. His knowledge of boats, the sea and Cayman is second to none. Ask him to tell you the story of how he was the first person to train the stingrays... More

This was the best choice we made during our trip to the Caymans. So many of the snorkeling trips were like cattle carts, that were all about the $$$$ and had 30 to 50 people on their boats. Captain Crosby is completely laid back and is so authentic, we had 8 people on his catamaran (6 of which were my... More

Captain Crosby did a serviceable job getting us to the Stingray sand bar, but the rest of the trip was awful. He took us to a pitiful place to snorkel, his so-called "sail boat" has no mainsail, he refused to take us where we wanted to go because he claimed there was not sufficient time (alhough we had made the...

Captain Crosby truly puts on a great show. As one of the original trainers of the rays he has been bringing visitors out to sting ray city since the very beginning. His trips are small and personalized (get ready for some great johnny cash), and there's absolutely no reason to go on one of the large tour boats if Capt.... More
