Sting Ray city is a blast. We went with a charter tour through a cruise (sorry, don’t remember the name) and they gave us squid to feed the rays. It was really cool seeing so many rays in one place and being able to feed and touch them. The first time I fed one my fingers got sucked into the ray’s mouth and it sucked off my nail polish. My husband got a hickey from one. Our dive operator took us to a spot where an eel they named ’Psycho’ hung out. The eel was really old and had cataracts. The dive master kept the eels mouth occupied with the squid bucket while we all got to handle the eel. It was a really neat low key dive.


Cozumel was nice too. We did the swim through and a nice drift dive. The crew on the dive boat was really great, they took care of everything. We never had to touch our gear.


Both places gave divers the opportunity to dive with the dive master so if you are a beginner diver that is the best way to go.


Are you going on a cruise? If so, you can always book through the cruise ship.


Have a blast!
