ATTRACTIONS

 

Cayman Islands

The three Cayman Islands, a British Crown Colony,  are about 480 miles directly south of Miami Florida.

Each of the three is big enough to support the luxuries of a holiday traveler yet small enough to provide that feeling of intimacy so hard to find at most resorts.

Grand Cayman

George Town, the capital city of the colony, is on Grand Cayman, largest and most developed of the trio. Attractions on Grand Cayman include:

  • Cardinal D's Park - a private collection of animals in a natural tropical park setting on Courts Rd

  • Cayman Islands National Museum

  • Cayman Turtle Farm - (16,000 sea turtles ranging from 6 ounces to 600 pounds) 

  • National Trust's Mastic Trail - a 2-mile nature trail

  • Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park - 65-acres of colourful beauty

  • Pedro St. James Historic Site (Savannah)

  • Stingray City - feed and swim alongside swarming stingrays 

Cayman Brac

Cayman Brac, is less developed than its big sister, Grand Cayman. Complete with an abundant array or natural, terrestrial treasures, you can enjoy that escape for which you came. An active National Trust chapter is adept in organizing a variety of special interest activities. Bird watching here can be very exciting. Diving, also, is a very popular activity, here. Or, interject a relaxed walk along the mile-long bluff trail near the Brac Parrot Reserve. Or go on a cave exploration jaunt. Whatever; you'll be glad you came.

Little Cayman

Little Cayman, the least developed of the Caymans trio, is mostly uninhabited. Here you can still enjoy that rare combination of sun-blessed solitude, glistening beaches and miles of untouched tropical wilderness which is rapidly disappearing from the Caribbean.

Some unique places to go and things to do:

  • enjoy a private swim in South Hole Sound Lagoon

  • row out to tiny, deserted Owen Island
     - view nature in its most pristine form

  • diving in Bloody Bay Marine Park
     - sheer coral wall begins at 20 ft. and plunges to 6000 ft

  •  enjoy the antics of the Red Footed Booby
     - largest known breeding colony

  • observe the only breeding colony of Magnificent Frigate Birds in the western hemisphere
