    We looked up to several stingrays, fascinating to us from the northern latitudes ?

    Lots of rays, seen as much from the bridge as from the port.

    Stayed for about 5 min on the bridge (the wind was freezing cold) and saw 1 big stingray. Maybe 2 but that could have been plastic

    Couldn't find any stingrays but enjoyed a walk around Picton anyway.

    I saw the first ray after a minute. Do not just look at the bridge but also at the shore where the messenger is standing!

    Didn't see any after 30mins. Maybe not during the winter season?

    Didn’t see the stingrays - saw a lot of boats though - not sure whether the rays like the busy environment?
