"To the outsider, the Cayman Islands - Cayman Brac, Grand Cayman and Little Cayman - are almost always equated with watersports and glorious beaches, plus offshore banking opportunities. This is hardly surprising, since the Cayman Islands do offer world-class scuba diving in crystal-clear waters, as well as a tax-free haven. But these three islands have so much more to offer the traveler who's willing to wander off the traditional tourist paths, walk away from the beachside resorts and explore by themselves. Diverse woodlands and pristine wetlands occupy much of the islands' interiors, rugged hiking trails meander across the peaks and valleys, and mangrove swamps cushion the shoreline, offering a unique breeding ground for many birds and fish. These protected wilderness areas are often left unexplored by lay-in-the-sun-all-day tourists, who miss some of the biggest attractions the islands offer."
Geographically, the Cayman Islands are located 180 miles west of Jamaica. The temperature is a breezy 77 F almost year-round with nonstop sun and fun. You can visit them as a port-of-call during a cruise of the Caribbean or plan a wonderful vacation for the family. Three small islands in the Caribbean with unspoiled natural beauty, a high standard of living, a stable economy, year-round warm weather, underwater treasures, friendly people, and the perfect place to unwind and hide out.
Here, discover miles and miles of spectacular white sandy beaches and crystal clear turquoise waters.
Scuba, snorkel and view this underwater world from the porthole of the Atlantis submarine. For the the fisherman, there are marlin, wahoo, tuna, grouper and yellowfin with June being "Million Dollar Month". Go waterskiing, windsurfing or sailing. The friendly locals are happy to assist you in activities.
In charming, historic Georgetown browse through quaint shops with duty free shopping. Enjoy gourmet cuisine and native specials in Cayman's many world-renowned restaurants. Wind up the day in the disco, listening to live music or taking a romantic walk along the beach. The islands have a very high standard of living, so crime is virtually non-existent (but don't be foolish). The locals are used to tourists flocking in and out, every month of the year. They are always friendly and willing to give directions to those who have lost their maps along the way. And they also provide the best activities one could imagine.
Coming in April is the Batabano Festival with parades, music, dancing and exhibits from the islands. In July, they have a Summer Bash Weekend dedicated to food, festivities and even a little bit of golf. And August to October is usually the off-business season, when tourists come to partake in the traditional tourist activities like games, scuba diving and anything else you can think of.
The islands offer great accommodations, shopping, dining, cruises and car rentals too! Be sure to ride a horse on the beach. Or see the National Museum of the Grand Cayman Islands. Go see their brewery and dance the night away in the fantastic clubs. What ever you do will please you and make you fall in love with the Cayman Islands.
