Cayman Islands travel guide

Escape the commercialised Grand Cayman Island to explore the secret caves and deserted beaches of the Cayman Islands by boat

Related Content

A dazzling selection of luxury beachside resorts has made the Cayman Islands a dream destination for the world’s wealthiest people. But underneath the glitz and glamour is an island-nation blessed with first-rate diving sites, thriving wildlife and stunning natural rock formations.  

The Cayman Islands consists of three islands – Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman. The commercialised Grand Cayman is best known for its gourmet restaurants, shopping and resorts. The majority of the exclusive resorts are dotted along Seven Mile Beach - a long crescent of coral-sand beach.

Little Cayman - Grand Cayman’s charming little sister- tempts visitors to her silky shores with superb diving sites along Bloody Bay Wall and Jackson Wall. Cayman Brac has the most varied landscape in the region with ancient coral limestone cliff and caves to the east and excellent bird watching and hiking opportunities.

With clear visibility, warm sea temperatures, a selection of deep and shallow dives and great wall diving, it makes sense to spend as much time as possible drifting above the Cayman’s colourful coral reefs.

Wanderlust Recommends

  1. Dive into the waters of Little Cayman to explore the buzzing aquatic life of Bloody Bay Marine Park.Explore the caves carved into Cayman Brac’s limestone bluffs.
  2. Climb ladders up to Great Cave on the south shore of East End for remarkable rock formations.
  3. Enjoy the best above-sea-level and below-sea-level sights by signing up for a boat trip around the three islands.
  4. Visit the Booby Pond Nature Reserve on Little Cayman Island. The salt-water lagoon is home to rare red-footed booby and the spectacular frigate.
  5. Shop until you drop in one of the glitzy shopping centres on Grand Cayman Island. Then pamper yourself at a five-star hotel on the white-sand Seven Mile Beach.
