*Are there any stingrays that can be feed or played with in St. Thomas. If yes-where is this attraction?

David: At Coral World there is a Southern Stingray pool. At feeding time (1:00pm) you can come down and give them treats. They feel pretty cool! In the wild it is pretty hard to get them to play! But you can see them at most sandy bottom bays if you are patient.

Coral World encounter is a good idea. I have had luck seeing them at Cinnamon Bay on St. John, they don't really like to be approached to closely in the wild - they will swim away. You can float above them and check them out that way.
