Stingray City is a sandbar near a channel located in the barrier reef. This was a location that fishermen would visit to clean off the fish they caught each day. This attracted many stringrays.
The stingrays that visit the area are wild animals. But, they have become accustomed to people coming to feed them. Getting hurt by one is very unlikely. You may also come across starfish during your snorkeling excursion.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for those who love aquatic animals. You are sure to have tons of amazing photos to take home.
