Some of Caymans best! These were some of the best 4 hours spent during our stay in the Caymans. Graeme, Travis, and Marcel were wonderful hosts and great with our (6) little ones. I highly recommend booking a tour, you will not be disappointed! They are extremely knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and safety oriented. Absolutely great vibes, we hope to be back someday :)read moreread less

Amazing customized experience for our whole family! Our experience with Cobalt Custom Charters in the Grand Cayman Islands was absolutely exceptional from start to finish! Booking the tour was incredibly easy, and the communication with the company was seamless. They were so responsive and made sure every detail of our trip was arranged exactly to our liking.The two captains, John and Kyle, were amazing throughout the entire journey. They were not only knowledgeable about the islands and the surrounding waters, but also so friendly, patient, and accommodating, especially with our young children. They made sure everyone was comfortable and engaged, ensuring our family had an unforgettable time.
What really stood out was how personalized the tour was. We got to choose exactly what we wanted to do, and the entire experience was tailored to our needs and interests, thanks to John and Kyle. They were truly both so amazing!
This tour was the highlight of our trip to the Cayman Islands. We can’t recommend this company enough—everything from the booking process to the actual tour exceeded our expectations. We will definitely be using them again when we return to the Cayman Islands!

BEST Crew!! Graeme and Travis really know how to make you feel special and at home. These guys know some of the best spots around the island for snorkelling and seeing lots of aquatic life! The boat itself is super fast and really comfortable - so many seats! Make sure you check out Stingray City or Rum Point! ALSO, they got the tunes!!!!!!read moreread less

Family Core Memory What an afternoon! We had the most amazing time with Kyle and Andrew. They did such a phenomenal job! They were professional, personable and fun. We appreciated their knowledge of the area, the water conditions and their emphasis on our safety. They also were wonderful in explaining how to interact with the stingrays and starfish. This is a core memory for our family and one we won’t forget!
Thank you for making this one of the best highlights of our time here!

Perfect Day! I booked this off of reviews, and very glad that we did! It is worth paying the extra money for a private charter - no crowd hassle, no time crunch. Your agenda is the priority! They were prompt, easy to deal with, and a great experience. Thanks Andres and John! Debbieread moreread less

Perfect Day on the Water – Highly Recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing private boat tour with Cobalt in the Cayman Islands. From start to finish, the experience was seamless – Graeme was a pleasure to work with, incredibly communicative, and had everything perfectly set up for us.Our crew, Noah and Kyle, were both friendly and knowledgeable, creating the perfect island vibe. They took us to the most beautiful spots on a crystal-clear day, and we got to experience the sting rays up close and enjoy some of the best snorkeling we’ve ever done – it was an absolute dream. The whole day felt like a true escape.
They were especially wonderful with our 5-year-old son, even letting him take the wheel of the “pretty girl” for a bit in the open water – a moment we will never forget!
Our only regret was not booking an extra hour or two. If you’re in the Caymans and want a first-class boat tour, don’t hesitate – Cobalt Custom Charters is the way to go!

The BEST part of our trip!!! Graeme and Travis were absolutely awesome on our private catamaran excursion!!! Literally can’t say enough about how great they were and Cobalt Custom Charters, especially with our 3yr old little girl and her first day out on the water. She LOVED IT and we all had a blast. Stingray city and starfish point plus a little snorkeling made our trip to GC!! Thank yall so much for a great day!!!read moreread less

What an exceptional charter! Booking was easy, communication was fantastic, and the charter itself was absolutely perfect. Steve (our captain) picked us up on time and took us to the dock where we met our first mate Ferrick. I couldn't have picked a better pair of people to take us on our 4 hour charter if I tried. We first stopped at Stingray City (of course), then a little snorkeling at the reef, then off to see the starfish (so very cool), and finally a trip through the mangroves. At every single stop, Ferrick was a walking encyclopedia of entertaining information that made each experience even better. Both he and Steve added so much more to the charter just by being themselves. I've booked many charters in many locations, but this one was my favorite. I highly recommend Cobalt.read moreread less

Must Do In Cayman! I can't say enough about Cobalt Charters. We were traveling with two families with a total of eight people all teenage daughters. We booked the bio tour one evening and the four hour stingray city tour a couple of days later. Bio tour - one of the coolest things we have ever seen and Marcel was our captain. Great guy who took care of everything. We highly recommend this trip. Stingray city - awesome morning with John and Andrew leading this excursion. Both guys were very personable and knowledgeable, and just like Marcel took care of anything we could think of. You can tell customer service is a priority with this company and it shows with everyone you meet. Starting with Graeme. He took care of all the bookings and was very responsive answering all my questions before and during our time at Cayman. I honestly can't imagine any other charter being better than our experience, and I recommend them to anyone wanting to enhance their Cayman vacation. Marcel, John, and Andrew, thanks for two fun trips and taking care of our daughters! They had a blast.read moreread less

Great time on the water in the Caymans We went with this company 2 years ago and had a blast with Marcel. We brought our whole family back this year with 3 kids and 6 adults and were lucky enough to get Marcel again. He makes the time at Stingray City incredible. Noah took awesome pictures and they were both great with the kids who were 7, 5 and 3. It's a much more one on one than the bigger boats. We took the 8am on a no cruise ship in town day and we were the second boat at Stingray city so nice and empty. The starfish beach is incredible and the snorkeling was really clear and saw a lot of fish and coral without having to venture too far. Would highly recommend to anyone!read moreread less

Amazing Day- Highlight of our trip! We had the best time on our private boat charter with our captains Marcel and Lars! (It was also a breeze booking and communicating with the owner, Graeme, before the trip.)We had a party of 4 with 2 adults and 2 kids, ages 7 and 10. Marcel picked us up in a nice van at our hotel and even made a stop for us at a convenience store on the way so we could pick up a few things. The boat was already stocked with towels, bottled waters and ice and had room for us to throw our drinks and snack in the cooler too. Once on the boat, we had an amazing time at Stingray City, starfish point and Marcel also gave us a guided snorkeling tour of the reef and we saw so many cool fish. It was so much fun!!! We also stopped at Rum Point for some drinks and lunch.
We loved it so much we tried to book another day with them during our stay, but unfortunately they were booked already! They also sent us over 250 pictures that they took of our family- there were some amazing shots of us under the water that we never would have been able to get with our phones.
This was the highlight of our time in Cayman! We will definitely be back and book again with Cobalt!

VERY COOL TRIP! We had a phenomenal trip to Stingray City, and Starfish Point! It was the cutest thing seeing how tame the stingrays are, and our guide even knew one by name! They were friends! Excellent guides, and the icing on the cake were the photos they sent to us the next day! It was so nice and thoughtful of them to take the pics, and send them in a professional manner. They were on time, 100% polite and accommodating, and very clean boat!!! They even put our shoes in a crate to keep the boat very clean. 100% recommendations to this company!

Great Grand Cayman excursion! You get a privately planned trip with owners that know the area. And being from Canada they were super friendly! After we left the boat we went to wait for the taxi that Graeme called for us. He noticed that were were still waiting for longer than the taxi company told him. He came up and called for us again.

One of the best experiences on Grand Cayman Travis and Graeme were terrific. Both were very knowledgeable, friendly and provided a relaxing, fun and informative tour.

Magical moments framed in Cobalt We did two trips with Cobalt - one to bio bay and one to sting ray city. Both were well organised in advance by the team; a few easy to access emails and our trip was in the diary. Then on the days we were collected from our hotel in a clean and tidy taxi style car which whisked us to the dock. The boat was a Boston whaler beauty. Our experience was very special on both trips with different captains. Bio bay is literally magical. The sting rays at sting ray city a chance to touch and encounter nature in ways which we simply don’t enjoy back home. Tremendous memories.read moreread less

Best charter to Stingray Bay on the island! This was our second year with Cobalt Charter, because it was so worth a repeat experience! Last year we came as a family and did the three hour tour of Stingray Bay, snorkeling at Rum Point and looking at starfish at Starfish Point. This year was my daughter’s graduation gift to come back and do it again! She will be a Biology major, so our awesome captain, Lars, went into more of the science details of the stingray and starfish biology, and mangrove forest ecosystem. All were truly fascinating and such a one of a kind Caymanian experience. The day was a little rough water, so Graham had notified us beforehand to see if we would like to rebook and let us know if we were uncomfortable, we could request to turn around at any time. However my daughter and I are adventurous and didn’t mind the bumps and waves and it added to the fun. One thing we really appreciated and loved was that At Starfish Point, our Captain noticed tourists from another tour were lifting the starfish out of the water and taking photos with them on their heads, etc. He had already taught us that these animals stay alive by circulating seawater through their bodies much like our blood system, and taking them out of the water causes air bubbles to enter their system and they will eventually die. Lars went over to the other tourists and asked them not to do what they were doing because of this. The previous trip we didn’t see the Mangrove forest, but this time we did and I’m so glad. It was a nice calm and relaxing end of the day and we were amazed at how interesting the mangrove ecosystem was. Absolutely the BEST tour of Stingray bay in the island! This was especially made a realization after seeing the other tours out there with overcrowded boats and the guides not really caring how the tourists treated the sea animals. Would love to come do it all again in a heartbeat!read moreread less

Catamaran Tour with the Kids! We loved our 4 hour private boat tour with Cobalt Custom crew! We had three families (6 kids total) and staff was so patient and helpful. At one point, they even joked that us adults could go snorkel and they would babysit on board! We did the stingray city, a snorkel stop and then we talked with the guys and they came up with a great idea for the remainder of our time- they took us into Camana Bay for a gelato stop and a quick boat break for the kids. It was so fun and a beautiful mangrove entrance into the bay. You will not regret booking their services, for sure a highlight of our trip to Cayman Islands!read moreread less

Absolutely Awesome! Travis and Graeme are safe, attentive, knowledgeable and fun. With such a large group, they did a headcount every time we got back in the boat. All the kids held and/or kissed stingrays at Stingray City. They held the world’s slowest competition amongst the starfish at starfish point. They were able to see all the colorful fish of a big aquarium up close and personal while snorkeling. I would (and will) recommend the Cobalt Tour company to everyone who asked.read moreread less

Great trip!! We had an amazing tour with John and Kyle! We saw stingray city, starfish point, stoped for a great beach dinner and then visited the bio bay.

Fantastic, fun adventure! My 20-something children and I had a great time on our private charter with Cobalt. It was recommended to us by our friends who are locals. We went out for the 4 hour afternoon tour and it was a beautiful way to end the day with the sunset, luminescent cove, and a star lit ride back to the dock. Jon and Noah were excellent tour guides. Jon gave us so much information about the Cayman waters, stingrays, starfish, and luminescent origins. When I could not go snorkeling with the kids, Jon was happy to jump right in and take them around the reef. My daughter wanted to get back out there to stingray city the next day! Although the kids are still waiting for their playlist ranking (joking!) we all agreed the Cobalt tour was an excellent addition to our trip.read moreread less

Amazing time with my family My family and I had an absolutely incredible experience with Cobalt Custom Charters. In three hours we went snorkling over beautiful reefs, stopped at a shallow beach populated by starfish, paused for a delicious mudslide, and hung out at Stingray City. Graham and Travis were incredible captains - they were genuine, good-natured, and friendly guys who were truly passionate about showing us a good time. It truly felt like a special, and custom tour, and we were all so impressed by the dedication they put into their work.The captains were very knowledgeable about the island, the animals, and the ecosystem and I learned a lot about Cayman. They frequently took candid photos of our group on a couple different cameras (including an underwater one) - they delivered the photos a few days after, and they were such an awesome takeaway from the trip. We all had such a blast - I HIGHLY recommend Cobalt Custom Charters.
Thanks guys - hope to see you soon!

Highly Recommend Cobalt for excursions to Stingray City, Starfish point and Snorkeling We visited Grand Cayman in June 2024. We chose Cobalt for a trip to see the Stingrays, the Starfish, and snorkeling.
Highly recommend Cobalt. Everything was above and beyond. Great tour guides in Jon and Andrew.
And excellent communication from pick up to drop off.
They made sure each of us had unique time with the Stingrays and starfish, and went out of their way to enhance our experience. We felt so lucky that we chose these guys!!
This is the company to use without hesitations. Beautiful island and accommodations but our excursion to Stingray City, Starfish Pojnt and snorkeling, was the best part of our trip.
Thank you.

Do not miss this great adventure As soon as we decided to visit Grand Cayman, I reserved our spot for Sting Ray City and snorkeling with Cobalt charters. We had a fantastic time with this company in March, 2020 and again yesterday. Graeme coordinated everything for us and arranged an earlier departure to avoid the larger crowd of visitors expected midday. That worked out perfectly .
Marcel and Lars arrived on time and off we went. Both young men are quite experienced and knowledgeable about the Cayman Islands and the marine life here. The taught us a bit about the sting rays and guided us in feeding, holding and even kissing them. We spent about one hour at Sting Ray City then departed to choice snorkeling spots.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Cobalt Carters and will definitely seek them on our next visit. It is a small group experience not to be missed.
Thank you Graeme, Marcel and Lars for providing an excellent and fun filled excursion on this beautiful island!

Exceptional experience! Kyle and Noah were exceptional. Their knowledge is incredible and not only is it a relaxing, easy going, thoroughly enjoyable trip, you learn so much too. There were a few that were nervous in our group and the guys made them feel totally comfortable, explained everything in just enough detail to put minds at ease and ensured we all had a great time. Considering the cost of some of the commercial charters I can't recommend this highly enough.
Speeding out to sting ray city with your own music playing on the boat, wind in your hair, chilling out. And then to swim with the rays, snorkel the reef and see the starfish. No better way to spend a few hours. Excellent trip and I wouldn't hesitate to book them again if I ever get the chance. Thank you.

A duo of "up-and-comers" about to take the Caymans by storm My family and I were scheduled for a snorkel tour at stingray city, rum point and starfish point. We all could not have been more impressed with the natural beauty of the locations. Graeme and Travis masterfully navigated us around some tricky storms and they took us to a charming restaurant for lunch. Graeme and Travis answered any question we could possibly ask them and they were extremely professional yet very personable. The highlight of our trip though was when Graeme and Travis helped me conquer my long fear of stingrays and I got to fully enjoy and interact with these animals. Graeme and Travis are a top-notch duo who will help anyone appreciate the natural wonders that the Caymans have to offerread moreread less

I would most definitely encourage you book Colbalt Charters without a doubt one of the best. They will definitely see us on our next visit to Cayman.

Explore Grand Cayman wildlife by sea We took a couples voyage out on a private charter on a nice and comfortable Cobalt bowrider. Our captain Jonny and first mate Luka made for an enjoyable experience sharing their knowledge of the history of the places visited and how to safely interact with the wildlife. We visited Stingray city and were able to hold, feed and kiss a very cooperating stingray (whom was pregnant). The rays were not aggressive and provided a great memory. We then visited a reef area to snorkel and see coral and native fish. They provided the gear and gave instructions to protect the wildlife. Our last stop was at Starfish point and got to see the up close and learn how they move, feed and see (kind of). We did BYOB and got to play our music between stops. Captain was very accommodating and got to see the sunset on the way back to the dock. This is a must do experience when visiting Grand Cayman. Communication with the reservation team was top notch.read moreread less

The best Cayman charter experience!! An incredible experience! This is our third time in Cayman and Cobalt gave us the best snorkeling and Sting Ray City visit we’ve ever had! Marcel and Noah were terrific guides—really informative, helpful, and accommodating during our private charter. I highly recommend Cobalt Custom Charters as anyone’s first activity while visiting the island. Thank you so much!read moreread less

5 STAR PRIVATE CHARTER This was an unbelievable experience and beyond our expectations! Cobalt Custom Charters kept in excellent communication from the time we booked our excursion to the start of it! Very accommodating! Our guides Marcel and Noah were so knowledgeable, friendly and interactive with our family getting everyone involved, we loved spending the afternoon with them! Stingray City Sandbar was breathtaking! Learning all about these amazing creatures you just simply fell in love with them, especially with Tattoo with her kisses! Snorkeling at Coral Garden near Rum Point was beautiful and while on the boat ride, Marcel and Noah pointed out Sea Turtles and even a Nurse Shark so we could view! Our final stop was Starfish Point where we learned and held these slow crawlers which are amazing in their own right! Even found a few jellyfish!We definitely will be returning customers next time we're back in Grand Cayman! Thank you for making one of the best days of our lives!!

10/10–Cannot Recommend Enough! This was our second charter experience with Cobalt Custom Charters, and I truly cannot imagine booking with anyone else. Graeme and team are exceptional at combining fun, education, and professionalism. Booking a boat trip with kids can feel like a roll of the dice, but Kyle and Jon kept all the children engaged and in the spotlight. While our vacation has been amazing overall, CCC gave us the best part of our trip and memories to last a lifetime.
If you’re looking to book a charter experience, look no further than these guys!

Incredible Anniversary Charter We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Cobalt Charters and couldn’t recommend them more highly! From start to finish, their team was incredibly friendly, professional, and super helpful. Their communication leading up to our charter was outstanding—they made everything easy and stress-free. They took the time to ask what we wanted to do and truly listened, customizing the entire tour to fit our preferences perfectly. That personal touch made all the difference and turned a great day into an unforgettable one.
A special shoutout to our guides, Steve and Andy—they were great! Knowledgeable, fun, and attentive, they made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
Everything about the experience exceeded our expectations, and it was clear they genuinely care about their guests having the best possible time. We will definitely be seeking them out again whenever we visit Grand Cayman!

Top Notch Experience My husband, daughter and I used Cobalt Blue Custom Charter on our cruise stop to Grand Cayman. They picked us up at our pre-arranged time exactly on-time and drove us to the boat. Everything about our adventure was absolutely perfect. There was a cooler of ice and water and the boat was clean and ready for us immediately. We were on our way and headed out for our first stop, Sting Ray City. Marcel's knowledge about the Sting Rays was notable and he knew one particular ray that kept swimming near us. Marcel was truly bothered to see that this ray was recently injured. Marcel had a genuine heart of compassion for the marine life. This compassion put us ease and he made sure we had had positive interactions with the rays. Our daughter was nervous about feeding the rays and Marcel offered solutions so even though she was uncomfortable that she still had a pleasant and personalized encounter. Each of us got to feed and hold and touch these amazing sea creatures.
Our next stop was to snorkel off Rum Point. We were suited up and on our way.
We were the only boat and snorkel group for miles, and it made for just a fantastic experience. Marcel was in the water guiding us, but he let us set the tone and roam as we wished. There were lots of very colorful fish to see. Noah manned the boat and towed us back to the boat at the end of our snorkel which was appreciated in this rough water day.
Our final stop was to Starfish Beach. Marcel found and safely brought us each our own starfish to interact with. We learned all sorts of interesting things and this was such a fun stop on our tour.
Both Noah and Marcel were just amazing. We learned so much and we were showed how to safely and respectfully interact with all the sea life. They made us feel at home and comfortable and it is obvious that we were not just a boat passenger but that they wanted our vacation to be the best it could be. This was such a great experience that I honestly feel that it played a part in our daughter feeling confident in jumping into the Blue Hole in Jamaica the following all based on how Marcel was able to put her at ease. She felt safe and in good hands and this feeling carried over to our next day's adventure.
We had Cobalt Blue booked for our 2020 cruise that I cancelled just prior to the pandemic that was promptly refunded so booking them once again for our 2023 cruise was an easy decision.
On a side note-the boat had music and at one point the song lyrics got a little dicey for our daughter and as I lounged out all relaxed on our way back to the pier at the front of the boat I debated asking for a station change and before I even had a chance to speak up they switched it as if reading my mind. A small detail but just one small example of our whole day with Cobalt Blue.
From start to finish our entire experience with all staff was exceptional in every way.

Luxurious catamaran in the Caymans My husband and I had a wonderful trip with Cobalt Custom Charters on their very spacious catamaran. The boat was perfect for a relaxing day on the water. The crew was very accommodating and even provided towels and refreshments, squid to feed the stingrays and a whole digital photo album documenting our trip on the boat. The catamaran was so comfortable with two lavatories on board and a lovely netted lounge area at the front of the boat where you can lay over the water. We will absolutely be sailing with Cobalt on our next trip to the Caymans!read moreread less

Perfect Day Our cruise ship arrived at 7 and we took a water shuttle to the dock. We boarded a taxi which cost $9 per person from Spots Beach to the Yacht Club. Marcell and Graeme met us at the Anchor store, then we boarded the boat and headed out to Stingray City. Marcell and Graeme educated us about the stingray as we held, kissed and fed the stingray. It truly was a once in a lifetime experience. We then snorkeled off of Rum Point over the beautiful reef. Lastly, we headed over to visit Starfish Point where we saw young and older Starfish. From booking to the actual excursion, it was a seamless process. Graeme and Marcell are top notch guides and very passionate about the Island and all the sea life. Highly recommend using Cobalt custom charters!read moreread less

Weather can’t hold this group down Excellent! 10 out of 10! Customer service remarkable. Kyle and Noah were friendly, fun, personable, and knowledgeable. The weather tried to spoil our outing but with this wonderful team the weather did not succeed. The winds were tough and created difficult boating and swimming conditions. We opted to tough out the winds and we are so glad we did. We were unable to safely swim with the Stingrays but were able to enjoy starfish point and Kaibo for lunch. It was a great day and truly Kyle and Noah made it such. Don’t consider any other group. This is the group you want to go with time and time again! Thanks for a fantastic day!read moreread less

One of the most MAGICAL days of our lives We booked this excursion with Cobalt Custom Charters after reading the reviews with hopes there was a kernel of truth included. The reviews were accurate. The pre-excursion interaction was quick and easy. Graeme went so far as to reach out to repeat clients to see if they could adjust their timing to allow us to meet our cruise ship window. Graeme picked us up & drove us to the boat and he was just as nice in person. The boat was very clean and well stocked. The crew consisted of Marcel & Noah. They could not have been any nicer, more professional, any friendlier, or more accommodating. The first stop was Stingray City after a briefing from Marcel on what to expect and what to do and not to do we jumped in the water and quickly were surrounded by stingrays. Noah instructed us on how to feed them and Marcel patiently helped us hold, kiss, dance, and feed multiple rays including his favorite Tattoo. The entire experience so far exceeded our expectations that we could only term it as “magical”! Our second stop was Rum Point where Marcel led us to his favorite spot where there was hundreds of fish, many species of parrot fish which were identified by Marcel, trumpet fish, a stingray. We were very excited to see a massive school of princess parrot fish that moved as one and went from coral to coral feeding. We followed this group for quite a while completely entranced. The variety of fish and coral we encountered was nothing short of spectacular. All too soon our day came to an end. We are experienced travelers and snorkelers and we agreed this is one of the best days we have had, as well as, one of the best excursion experiences of our life. Our thanks to the entire crew for providing us such a treasured memory. We will be seeing y’all again!!read moreread less

Amazing private lux experience We spent an afternoon with Cobalt. They took us to an amazing snorkeling location, after that, we took a quick break for drinks at kaibo, then to starfish point where we chilled and waited for stingray city crowds to thin out. We finished the afternoon swimming with and feeding the stingrays. They are very conscious of the wildlife and gave us tips to enjoy everything without harming the environment. The guys, at my request, took the boat nice and slow so my daughter would not get freaked out. I can not express how great the guys were, it was like being on the water with old friends. It did not cost much more than going on a big tour, and the attention to detail and friendly service was worth every penny. They answered all my emails, took all my calls, and made sure we were all set to have a great experience. 5 were in party, did not feel cramped on the boat. This was our second trip to GC and this was the best part of both trips. Cheers guys, and congrats on running a great business.

Stingray City excursion Capt Marcel and Andrew took us on an amazing trip to Stingray City to swim and interact with the giant sting rays. Then we snorkeled an amazing, living coral reef with tons of fish and even an eel. We then made a trip to Starfish Point where we were able to hold lots of starfish and swim with tarpon. These guys are super knowledgeable and made our trip with them one of the best excursions we have ever experienced.read moreread less

Floating Birthday and Rays My husband booked a 1/2 day tour with Cobalt for my 60th. We had 4, my 2 adult sons and hubs and I. I cannot express how much fun this day was. Marcel and Lars were perfect hosts and so incredibly knowledgeable about the stingrays, reefs and other locations we visited. Every ray had a name and a story. It was a bit rough so after SRC and snorkeling at the reef, we opted for calmer waters. We visited Rum Point and were so lucky the Pirates Grill Wing boat was there and we got the last dozen wings, delish! We then cruised through the calm mangrove forest and again, Marcel is a wealth of knowledge and we learned so much. Somehow my husband missed the photos that Lars sent the next day and we just opened. How awesome to have a personal photographer with you all day too! Can’t recommend enough. We usually opt for a private tour and this is why! Thank you for making our day so memorable!read moreread less

Absolutely Awesome Half Day Charter: Stingrays, Starfish, Snorkeling! Our family of six booked a three-hour Cobalt Custom Charter to Stingray City and Starfish Point as well as snorkeling in the reef. It was outstanding! Graeme consistently communicated with us once the booking was made, gave us updates on the weather, and was extremely helpful with transportation. Since we arrived on a cruise ship, we booked Cobalt for the transport to the boat. Travis was waiting for us and extremely friendly, providing insight on Grand Caymen and Georgetown. Upon our arrival to the boat, we met Kyle and Noah. They were the perfect blend of sea captains, historians, naturalists, and cool people with whom to spend a half day. We instantly connected with them and appreciated how they made us feel comfortable among the stingrays and other sea life. They even enjoyed our daughters' mix of music! Our only wish was that we had booked four hours instead of three. This was the highlight of our trip! We highly recommend this charter.read moreread less
