This is the second time we have used this company for a chartered day trip. Les, our Captain was excellent.
He is qualified to get into the water and handle the stingrays to give you the best experience, not all boat companies are allowed to do this.
He is very safety conscious and knows the best places for snorkelling.
Thanks again for a great day. We will be back.

What a fantastic way to celebrate the end of lockdown . The best snorkeling stops , the stingrays pretty much all to ourselves , an amazing guide and skipper in Les and also the beautiful Cayman sunshine . Will definitely recommend Elite Cayman Charters to others and will definitely be out with Les and Elite Cayman Charters again very soon. Liz and friends 😎

Thank you for your review. It was my absolute please taking your group out on our first charter since lockdown, and a bonus that the sandbar was open for us to play with the Stingrays. Glad you had a great time and I look forward to taking you all out again soon!!

We recently did a charter with Les to Stingray City and a couple of snorkel spots. The weather was windy and we were very impressed with how Les managed to get us in the perfect spot to see the rays and snorkel. His knowledge of the Bay and the rays is incredible. He also is a very kind person. I would highly recommend Elite Cayman Charters.

Les was an active participant from the planning process to the day of the charter. He was knowledgeable and caring throughout our trip. Les’ attention to detail and knowledge of the experiences (stingray city, snorkeling, and starfish beach) were superb. He made everyone feel comfortable and included. He provided an assortment of fruit and waters which was super helpful considering we left our cooler at the place we were staying. I can not say enough about this man and his professionalism. Thank you Les for all you did for our family and the memories you helped us create! We have utilized many charters but none match the expertise and attention to detail like Les.

Nothing compares to visiting stingray City sandbar, snorkeling, star fish point and Kaibo on this private tour. Everyone in our group said it was by far the best day we experienced in Cayman and doing it privately made so special.
The captain (Les) is friendly and relaxed and really makes the day work so well. He obviously loves his job and is conscious of the wildlife when handling the Stingrays and anchoring the boat. Of particular note, Les kept a watchful eye on one of the older members of our group who unfortunately isn't as strong a swimmer as he used to be, without making it obvious to others what he was doing. This care is part of the service I'm sure, but it meant everyone had an amazing time.
Five well deserved stars!

The highlight of our trip to Grand Cayman was with Captain Les! He welcomed us onboard his very spacious and lovely boat "Witchy Poo." He was wonderfully helpful from the moment I first reached out. Upon sharing the dates of our stay, Capt. Les took it upon himself to check the cruise schedule and weather to help us find a day that would be less crowded AND the most likely for warm sunny skies in the forecast. We truly lucked out as it ended up being the sunniest day of our trip with beautiful clear waters as far as they eye could see. We were the only boat when we arrived to our first snorkel spot and enjoyed the reef to ourselves for a bit to explore. Captain Les' expert knowledge of the area allowed us to see and do everything we had hoped during our half-day private boat tour - we snorkeled amongst stingray, fish, and coral reefs. We held stingray and starfish. We enjoyed pina coladas at Kaibo. It truly was a day we won't soon forget. Thank you, Capt. Les! We look forward to visiting again.

Captain & Owner Les Sanders delivers exceptional client service and customized itineraries, showcasing his extensive knowledge and experience of Grand Cayman. Our numerous excursions with Les to Stingray City, Coral Gardens, the Barrier Reef and Starfish Point have been truly unforgettable, providing our family and friends with the opportunity to marvel at the natural wonders and diverse marine life. Swimming beneath the waves and gazing up at the sunlit champagne bubbles creates a heavenly atmosphere that inspires a deep appreciation for the ocean's beauty and magic. Les has a passion and love of sharing his joy of the beautiful island and all that it has to offer to create memories that are treasured forever.

We had an amazing time with Les, he was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, lots of fun and went out of his way to make our experience incredible and memorable. If you are going to book anything in the Cayman Islands, book Les Sanders for a boat trip to see and hold stingrays, starfish, and see beautiful coral reefs. 10/10!!!!

Les is so amazing! I’ve been to the island many times and he is the best I’ve ever seen with the stingrays. He has been on the island for so many years he knows it like the back of his hand! He has taken us to see so many beautiful spots. I always say the day on the charter with Les is the highlight of my trip. The chatter starts from the breath taking channels which is a must see! I couldn’t be any happier with my experience with elite cayman charters. Les truly does put his heart and soul into every charter!

We spent the day with Captain Les and Witchy Poo and travelled to Stingray City long before the crowds arrived and had the place to ourselves. From there we went to snorkel the reef before going to Rum Point for a Mudslide or two (a must do). All in all a great day on the boat, avoided the cattle call boats, and Les really knows what he's doing with the stingrays.
