Stingray City, Grand Cayman

It is a tourist attraction, where southern stingrays are found in abundance and visitors can pet and interact with the animals.

[2][3] Stingray City is a shallow sandbar in the northeast region of the Grand Cayman's North Sound.

The fish guts and squid were thrown overboard and the stingrays eventually congregated to feast there.

Today, tour and excursion boats, along with private watercraft, gather at Stingray City in large numbers.

The boats' proprietors bring along with them pails of chunked-up squid meat, which they dispense by hand to the animals, thus attracting dozens of the creatures to the feeding spot.
