Sting Ray City Antigua from Fodor's Online Travel
GuideStingray City
Antigua (Seaton's Village, Antigua. PHONE:
268/562-7297) is a carefully reproduced "natural" environment nicknamed by
staffers the "retirement home," though the 30-plus stingrays, ranging from
infants to seniors, are frisky. You can stroke, feed, even hold the striking
gliders, as well as snorkel in deeper protected waters
Virgin Atlantic Stingray City Antigua
Stingray City is a coral reef out to sea where you
can swim with tame stingrays, offering a fun, and original, day out for all
the family. The success of the site, and its sister venue in the Grand
Cayman Islands, has been huge. However, we must emphasise that Antigua's
Stingray city is man made and the stingrays brought there from elsewhere,
unlike the natural 'city' at Grand Cayman
Stingray City Antigua
Enchanting 'Stingray City' Antigua, fringed and protected by its own reef is
where the delightfully calm, crystal-clear waters make possible an actual
swim with the rays.
The unbeatable scenery and pristine coral reef encircling the area enhance
this amazing experience, second to none in the world.
Antigua Adventures - Stingray City Antigua
Stingray
City is located in the clear waters just in the lee of a barrier reef on the
Eastern Atlantic side of Antigua. The extremely territorial Southern
Stingrays are fish which have lived in these waters since the
Caribbean archipelligo was created. On this exciting tour you are taken from
the sleepy fishing touwn of Seatons by powerboat up to the barrier reef
where your guides who were former fishermen take you swiming into the clear
waters with the rays.
