Visiting the Cayman Islands can be pretty surprising for first timers. This is because for British territory, they’re not very British at all. This guide will give you some pointers and fill you in on the need to know so you can have a wonderful time here!
There are so many things to do in the Cayman Islands. Here’s just a small handful to give you an idea of what you could be getting up to on a luxury trip like this:
Seven Mile Beach
Seven Mile Beach
The name is a bit misleading, as this beach is only 5 and a half miles long. However, it’s definitely worth a visit on your trip to the Cayman Islands. The white sand is stunning and the beach is perfectly maintained, making it the perfect place to go for a walk or relax for the day. There are many shady trees to relax under if you usually shy away from the sun.
Stingray City
Stingray City
Visiting Stingray City will surely be one of the highlights of your trip to the Cayman Islands. It is considered to be one of the best places in the world for shallow diving and snorkeling. Although getting up close and personal with the stingrays can be scary, you’ll be briefed on how best to interact with them before you take the plunge. A once in a lifetime experience! However, you aren’t just limited to Stingray city for diving experiences. There are over 300 other sites you can take advantage of on your trip here. April is usually the best time of year for this activity.
George Town
George Town
George Town is the capital of the Cayman Islands and becoming more and more popular with visitors. There are an abundance of things to do here. You’ll never get bored! There are plenty of incredible shopping experiences, as well as water sport activities you can try out. Jet skiing is a lot of fun and one of the best things you can do here. There are even food tours and escape rooms you can take part in.
Accommodation In Cayman Islands
Staying a hotel or resort here will mean you must pay room tax. This can vary depending on where you stay. If you’re traveling with your family or a group of friends, one of the best things to do is look for condo rentals in Grand Cayman. A condo can be far more cost effective, but if you’re not worried about that, it also means you will get more privacy.
Food In The Cayman Islands
If you do decide to rent a condo, then you have the opportunity to buy some fresh produce and create your own food. However, there are many wonderful places to eat that you shouldn’t miss out on. Coconut Joe’s is an extremely popular place to go for reasonably priced food. Go on a food tour if you’re a foodie!
