I've done both. Gibbs Cay is a beach stop where you can beach, swim, or play with the StingRays. StingRay City in Cayman it is a sandbar, not a beach, so you have no choice but to get wet. I was there twice. On both occasions there was lots of other boats and people, but there are hundreds of stingrays. However, because it is a sandbar the last time we were there, it was quite windy and we could barely stand in the water, the waves went from two feet deep to five feet deep. I actually preferred Gibbs Cay at Turks and Caico b/c it was more relaxed. Even though there was only a few stingrays, the guides actually taught us a bit about them, and how to move around them and how to hold them etc. We each got to hold and feed the stingrays as well. At StingRay city it felt a lot more rushed.

Has anyone here been to the Columbia Icefield in the Rockies in Alberta Canada and have also seen the Mendenhall glacier? I've been on the Columbia Icefield and feel like it would be a similar experience to going on the Mendenhall Glacier, but curious if anyone has experienced both?
