Has anyone seen the sting rays at Castaway Cay? I have kids who want to see the sting rays, but I'm trying to decide whether to book a port excursion to see them at GC, or book the activity at Castaway Cay. Thanks.
Hey Tommy! We did the Stingray feeding at CC in December, and my kids loved it! We had the first time slot of the day, and it was chilly, but once we were in the water, it wasn't so bad. The sun also started to come out at that time (and I'm hoping in March it may be even warmer than mid-December!) The attendants had floating structures they have used to train the rays, and they showed us how to hold the food (seemed most like fish and other raw seafood) as the rays passed over our hands. They told us their names and a little about their background, as well as encouraged us to pet them as they went by. After the feeding was over, we were able to snorkel in that part of the water for awhile, which was pretty neat! I would definitely recommend doing it, my kids and I enjoyed it very much!
