Things to do in Little Cayman, Cayman Islands: The Best Nature & Parks

December 29, 2021 Merry Kessler

With a population of only about 125 people, Little Cayman, an island of coral and sand that just got electricity in 1990, is an absolute paradise of beaches, lagoons, lush foliage and amazing diving. Jacques Cousteau declared Little Cayman's waters to be among the top three diving sites in the world. Reefs, shipwrecks and Little Cayman's Bloody Bay Wall, considered the Caribbean's most sensational wall dive, create unforgettable dips. Walk or rent a bike to get around the ten-mile-long island.

Great dive today with my 16 y/o son and the crew at Conch Club Divers. Saw a nurse shark, turtle feasting on the wall, juvenile drum, school of about 30 squid, a handful of small crabs and other macro. Terrific wall dive.

This was my favorite dive site this trip. The ocean was a smooth as glass the day I went. Lots of variety as far as things to see here. This site is ideal for snorkeling as well as diving.

Booby Pond Nature Reserve

Home to one of the hemisphere's largest breeding populations of red-footed boobies and a large colony of swooping frigate birds.

Nice viewing platforms, even telescopes. Bring your 10x binocular and bug spray. Watch the frigates trying to rob the red footed boobies of food. West Indian whistling ducks and lots more. What a pleasure!
