July 10 - 17, 2008, my family visited Grand Cayman and booked several adventures with Peter of Fat Fish Adventures: a night fish and a full day of snorkeling/jet skiing.

My husband and I went to Grand Cayman 10 years ago and enjoyed a tour of Stingray City. We had so much fun we decided to bring our teenagers this time. Peter gave a much better tour! He is full of information about the island, the waters, and the wildlife and shares it readily. We were the first people at Stingray City that morning. What a difference it made being the only boat there! He shared with us the names of different rays that hang there and we got to hold and feed several sting rays before the other tour boats arrived. When the other boats arrived, we left and Peter took us to several other good snorkeling spots. We had one tour boat "following" us, but other than the one boat, we were alone with Peter and the reef. It is amazing and beautiful and it is made even better by not having people all around you!
(The fewer the people swimming around, the less spooked the fish - therefore the more to see). Peter asked us if we were adventurous - you bet! - And took us to the other side of the reef where, diving down, we got to see a small reef shark and a moray eel. A private snorkeling tour is the only way for us from now on and Peter was great!

Our experience with Peter is what made the trip for me; it was like seeing your best friend you hadn’t seen in years, from the moment we talked on the phone to book the trips, down to first meeting each other. The night fishing trip went well enough that Peter and myself went out again a few nights later where I got to catch 3 and 4 pound Laguna snapper with a hand line.
I’m not much on bragging on people but if you don’t use Fat Fish Adventures you’re missing out on having a great experience and making a new friend.

My family spent 7 days in the Grand Cayman. We did a lot of exploring - - and Fat Fish Adventures won the prize for excitement. My husband, 8 year old, 10 year old, and my dad (and me) spent almost a full day with Peter. He took us to Sting Ray City. My kids were a little timid. He was so good with them. He told them exactly what to expect and explained why they are so friendly.

After that, we took off to Starfish City. Peter caught and let my kids hold these huge starfish.

We then snorkeled on a reef and then took off to Kaibo to eat lunch. The snorkeling was awesome and I loved the relaxed atmosphere at Kaibo.

Peter suggested that we take his jet ski along - in addition to his boat. I was a little worried about the kids. However, I drove them (3 fit easily) and they had a blast.

Peter is an awesome guide. He is friendly, knows his way around and gets along very well with the locals. He even told us where to find the real local food (and don't miss that either!).

We also booked a fishing trip. However, Peter called well in advance to let us know it would be rough and we may get sick. He checked in with us several times and let us make the call. I was very impressed with the fact that he gave us the warning.

I did not get to go fishing for Lobsters -- and hope to do that on the next trip.

We plan to go back to Grand Cayman and will spend at least a day (hopefully more) with Peter. He is top notch!!

We booked a boat trip for a group of seven to stingray city and the barrier reef. Peter met us promptly at Kaibo. He was fun, informative and friendly. We felt like we had excellent personal attention. He let us snorkel at the reef (best snorkeling we had all week!) for as long as we desired.

It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

We are frequent cruisers and have been to Grand Cayman many times. We weren't interested in snorkeling at the shipwreck fifty feet from the ship, or going to Stingray City. They are fun, but we've done them many times before. We ran across Fat Fish Adventures while looking for a jet boat rental (cause we like to go fast) and set up a private tour to go boating, snorkeling, and grab lunch away from the crowds. We met up with Peter, and he took us out for a great time! We enjoyed speeding along the open water, and visiting the mangroves. He also took us snorkeling in places that are too shallow for larger boats, so there was no one else there. It was so nice to have a knowledgeable person be able to tell us exactly what we were seeing. Peter was able to answer my husband's decade long question: Why don't you ever see lobster in the Caribbean? The answer was that we were looking in the wrong places. Peter took us to a spot where we saw tons of lobster. It was so cool! After snorkeling the morning away, we took the Sea Doo to a restaurant for crab fritters and other fantastic food. Peter is so laid back and fun! It felt like we were hanging out with a old friend. He tailored our trip to be exactly what we wanted to do, for as long as we wanted to do it. We will be returning to Grand Cayman in April 2009, and we will be hanging out with Peter and Fat Fish Adventures again!
