History

Grand Cayman’s inshore reefs and sandbars formed on a carbonate platform; modern tourism around Stingray City grew from local fishers feeding rays decades ago.

Conservation

Operators recommend reef‑safe practices—no touching coral, minimal sunscreen contact in water, and limiting interference with wildlife to reduce stress on rays and reef systems.
