Antigua Stingray City: Private Shallow-Water Encounter

Wade into a luminous sandbar and hand-feed wild Southern stingrays in their natural habitat. This intimate, small-group encounter in North Sound is Antigua's most iconic marine experience — tactile, thrilling, and utterly unforgettable.

What to expect

A sleek private catamaran whisks you across North Sound to an impossibly turquoise sandbar where docile Southern stingrays glide around your feet. Expert marine guides explain the rays' behaviour as you hold and feed them, turning a wildlife moment into an education. After the encounter, snorkel over a nearby reef alive with parrotfish, sergeant majors, and the occasional sea turtle. Cold Antiguan rum punch and fresh fruit await on deck for the sail back.
