We vacationed in Grand Cayman in July. Captain Dexter was fabulous. My three children had a great time, and Captain Dexter even took my one daughter out snorkeling with him. It was very kind of him to offer take her because my husband and I had our other two kids to pull along. He definitely made the experience enjoyable for our whole family. My daughter said she enjoyed it so much with him because he explained what everything was while they were out at the reef. His tour was by far the highlight of our vacation! I would highly recommend his tour. Thank you Captain Dexter for a memorable experience! We look forward to coming back to Grand Cayman, and we will definitely take your tour again. We hope to see you soon! Take care, Marci

My wife and I were referred to Dexter by some friends we meet while vacationing in the Caymans. They had known Dexter for years and said he and his crew were the best on the island. THEY WERE RIGHT! My wife and I, along with several of our friends, went with Dexter and his crew to Sting Ray City and to the reefs on his catamaran. It was absolutely amazing! Dexter and his crew was were with us every step of the way. They not only showed us sting rays, fish and coral reefs, but got with is in the water and explained the wildfire we encountered. It was by far one of the greatest excursions I have ever been on. I would do it again in a heart beat! If you are in the Caymans..taking a trip with Dexter is a must!

I'm a deputy sheriff and traveled with my family in RCCL August 2006. I found Dexter through the Internet search few months before the trip. There were many boat tour companies that offered cheaper than Dexter, but for some reason I found Dexter more interesting. Oh boy I made a SMART choice to go with Dexter. Captain Dexter is OUTSTANDING, CARING, and very wonderful person. He made EVERY effort to have EVERYONE to have experience playing with the Stingray, including my 2 years old son. On that day of my trip, I saw MANY tour boats around and Capt. Dexter found a spot away from everyone and brought a Stingray exclusively for everyone in our boat to touch and play. Capt. Dexter then took extra time for all of us to snorkel in very private area, far far away from everyone. Capt. Dexter is most professional person I ever encounter. EVERYONE in my family had unforgettable memory thanks to Capt. Dexter. It doesn't matter how cheap and better other are offering, Capt. Dexter tour is better than any other tour boat in Grand Cayman. I bet my badge on it.

My daughter Leah and I had a wonderful time swimming with the Stingrays. I told my daughter I conquered a few fears that day, both swimming with the stingrays and snorkleing at the reef. Sailing back that afternoon just was the icing on the cake to a terrific day. Once again, thank you and hope to see you again. Sam Patellos sister and niece.

Unbelievable! A once in a life time experience. I cannot stop talking about it now that I am back in the states. I loved kissing the stingray, seeing a live conch, and all of the great fish on the coral reef. The parot fish are just beautiful. Anyone that has swam with the stingrays know how intellegent and friendly they really are. Thank you Captain Dexter for such an amazing experience. I highly recommend it. : )

Dear Captain Dexter & John, Thanks for making our trip to Stingray Sandbar memorable. Interacting with the sting rays was simply amazing! What stood out was the warmth, care and personal attention we received. We have been to several boat tours over the world (Hawaii, Great Barrier Reef Australia), but this one stands out as the best we have done so far! Thanks once again & hope we can come back some day and do another tour with you. Rupa & Santosh

Our family has been coming to the Caymans for the past 15 years, and Dexter is the only way to fly, or sail, as the case may be. You're here to relax and enjoy, not motor across the Sound at 50 mph. Quietly sailing back after a magnificent experience of the rays, in a very personal way, is what I came for, and Dexter is who I refer all my friends and guests to.

FABULOUS! A friendly relaxing motor across the bay. Captain Dexter and John were welcoming, informative and friendly. The views were gorgeous. We were with 8 to 10 other people. Swimming with the Stingrays was a great adventure and phot op. Snorkleing at the reef was like jumping into an aquarium. And, to cap it off, we got back on the catamaran, showered off and sailed back with Nora Jones, Bob Marley, sun and quiet. It was our best day! We hightly recommend it for young and old :) Thanks for a sparkling day!!!

My family has been visiting Grand Cayman since 1997 and during our first trip, we happened to luck upon Captain Dexter and his Fantasea Tours. We have since booked a trip with Captain Dexter every visit back and brought all our family and recommended his tour to all our friends! Dexter not only gives us great service and a beautiful adventure, but he has become part of our extended Cayman family and is always there waiting for us to come aboard with a smile and a new joke!!!

Stingray City is an awesome place. I have visited and introduced friends there for each of the past 15 years. I met Dexter 15 years ago and he makes it like visiting with family. Dexter has named most of the rays, explains their history and why they are there. For first time visitors Dexter spends extra time helping them get in and out of the boat and feeding the rays while enjoying the trip.
Dexter and his Fantasea Tours is the best kept secret in the Cayman Islands. He limits the number of passengers on the boat so it's never crowded. If the weather is iffy he will reschedule rather than risk a less than enjoyable experience. He even has a money back guarantee if you don't have a good time you don't pay. (That has never happened to me over the last 15 years.)
Thanks Dexter for all the wonderful trips - with more to come.

Dexter's Fantasea tour is actually 2 experiences in one package:
First there is the visit to Stingray City with Dexter, a Cayman Island native. His new boat is a spacious catamaran that can sail or motor across the bay with a small group of guests to Stingray City. Dexter and his crew explain the routine of standing on the sandy bottom and petting the friendly rays as they swim around in their natural environment. Dexter's easy confidence makes even the wary feel right at home with these magnificent creatures.
After visiting the rays, Dexter takes his guests to one of the shallow reefs on the north side of Grand Cayman for snorkeling. These less visited, live coral reefs are only accessible by boat and are my favorites in Grand Cayman. Again, Dexter's lifelong knowledge of these waters makes for a unique and unforgettable experience.

A GREAT way to spend an afternoon. The sail out to the Stingray Bar was a perfect start to a unique experience. Our family thoroughly enjoyed swimming among the stingrays which appeared very well mannered. I think Captain Dexter has them very well trained. Our thanks to Captain Dexter and his crew for a very enjoyable, educational and worthwhile experience. We would do it again and recommend Dexter's Fantasea Tours to everyone.

Captain Dexter & John,
My friend, daughter, and I did a tour with you to Stingray Bar last Tuesday. We had such a wonderful time and I just wanted to thank both of you for making this adventure the highlight of our trip to the Grand Cayman Island.
My daughter (8 years old) was worried about swimming with the stingrays ever since I first mentioned it to her. She also gets very nervous and panicky in rough water. Thanks to John, who took her snorkeling and was a wonderful guide--pointing out all the fish and sea creatures--she had a great time and was not at all nervous. That meant I, in turn, could enjoy the snorkeling also!
While at Stingray Bar, my friend traveling with us got a little nervous in the waves and John was so kind and helped her get back to the boat safely.
Thank you, Captain Dexter, for showing such passion for what you do and thank you, John for being so helpful and friendly!
I will definitely recommend Fantasea tours to anyone I know visiting the island and we will give you a call when we return!
Thanks again!

Dear Captain Dexter,
This is a belated thank-you for the two beautiful cruises that my husband and I enjoyed on your sailboat with our two children, ages 8 and 7, last October, 2006. I am sure that the routes we took to Stingray City and Rum Point are well-known to you and "all in a days work". But as I look back at the photos, I realize that our visit to the Caymans and our sailboat tours in particular were major highlights of the past year.
Thank you for everything you do to keep your guests comfortable and safe, while showing them one of the most beautiful natural areas on earth.
We hope to return to the Caymans some day. If we do, we will certainly sail with you.
Best regards,
Jane Gulley (Gerald, children Blythe and Jack)

We visited Dexter last week and boy did we have a blast!!! I would recommend to anyone who wants to go see the sting rays and go snorkeling to hire Dexter. Not only is he very knowledgeable but his personality is one of a kind!! Not to mention his hot assistant that is not so bad to look at. Dexter may seem like an older gentleman but he is sure young at heart. Thanks Dexter for everything. Dr. Dorsch and staff

When we arrived in the Grand Cayman's I was very nervous about getting on a charter boat and heading out to the ocean. I was excited to see sting rays, but I've always been afraid of the ocean. Dexter could sense this and made me feel very comfortable. He snorkeled with me for a while and swam with me over to see the sting rays, never leaving my side. It made me feel very safe being in the ocean with an expert. I truly enjoyed Dexter's chartered boat trip, it turned out to be my favorite part of our vacation!

Maggie Whitewater WI USA
Dexter was AWESOME! We had so much fun, and even booked a second charter on our last day. This was my first trip to the Cayman Islands. For years I have been hearing about Dexter and his charter boat that took you out to the stingrays. What I didn't realize was that besides visiting the stingrays out at Stingray City and Stingray Sandbar, Dexter also took our group out to snorkel. I didn't believe it until I saw it. Snorkeling in the Cayman Islands is the BEST snorkeling in the Caribbean Sea!!! Everything was so close and the water was so shallow. You didn't even need to scuba dive to see all of the beautiful fish and coral. Did I mention that Dexter also picked us up from our place on seven mile beach and brought us to the boat and back. That was perfect because we didn't rent a car on this trip. Thanks Dexter for the great trip! You can bet that I'll be back!

This is the best tour that has ever been devised. Dexter takes you and a select group into heart of Stingray sandbar to enjoy nature at it's best. Then you travel for an easy snorkle to one of the world's most beautiful reefs. My favorite task is deciding how many times I should go with Dexter each time that I visit the Cayman islands.
