Any Stingray City tours (in Grand Cayman) that last more than 20 minutes?
 
Have taken a few different tour companies before, and even though they often include other snorkel sites, we are really more interested in spending a LONG time with the stingrays. Everybody seems to be an a hurry to get people out of the water too soon. Any suggestions?

We took Moby Dick Tours. They have a smallish boat for no crowding, they do not rush you, and they are very helpful for your holding and feeding the rays. Top-rated on Tripadvisor.

I'd just warn you that you're going to be hard-pressed to find any company that will leave you for more than 30 minutes with the stingrays. The area is quite busy, and by necessity they have to move groups along.

Your best bet for spending more time there (assuming you're not on a cruise) is to go on a non-ship day, when it will be infinitely less crowded.

Contact a company that provides private tours or boat rental. We went on a Sunday morning and were the only folks in the area for at least an hour.
