Close Encounter With Stingrays.
Stingray CayStingray feedings are tide dependent and arrivals to Stingray Cay are usually 2 hours before the high tide peaks. After an initial briefing of the do's and dont's guests are individually introduced to the rays.
Each person will be shown the proper technique to hold the fish and feed the rays while minimizing any nips to the fingers or suction squeezes. An opportunity to snorkel with the rays in their natural element is a special feature of the tour. Many of the rays are sleeping and can be easily awakened if disturbed. Visitors will enjoy photographing various birds and wildlife that inhabit the cay. Subject to weather conditions an optional snorkel trip to a nearby sunken wreck is offered. Must be a good snorkeler. |

Snorkel Reef and WreckThe eco-system around West End is diverse as any you will find in the Bahamas.
The cays and surrounding areas are prime migration routes for manatees, sea turtles and a number of seasonal and resident birds. Snorkeling on our reef affords one the opportunity to enjoy underwater marine life that is diverse and uncompromising. The annual migration of dolphins, turtles and sharks can be unexpected as they can show up anytime in the waters off the cays and coastline. Customized eco-tour options are available and quoted upon request. Choose one of our ecology tours from the available options when you have confirmed your travel arrangements to Grand Bahama. |
A Good Day of Fishing.
FishingCatching fish off West End is legendary and exciting. From 1930's prohibition gangsters to Hollywood movie stars our fishing grounds have attracted some of the most notable characters and anglers looking to land that big fish.
Our off shore excursions offer some of the best reef fishing for mutton snapper, yellow-tail, grouper, mackerel and the infamous barracuda. If the Bahamian tradition of hand line fishing intrigues you a guide will show how to prepare and manage your line for fishing along our shallow reefs. Grandparents, parents, and children can enjoy the opportunity to reel in a fish and capture memories of a lifetime. Once you are "hooked" it will be easy to land a variety of snappers, grunts, porgy's and hinds. |
