Spirit of the West

One of the most unique ways to experience Grand Cayman! Trek along the edge of the Caribbean Sea atop one of our magnificent beauties! Enjoy a lazy walk as the surf rolls in and out at the feet of your horse. For the more adventurous, feel the wind in your hair as you canter along the white sand beach. Try something completely out of the ordinary with the swim ride - hold on tight as your horse is steered into the cool and refreshing waters of the Caribbean for a wonderful swim.The true romantics can see the softer side of Cayman with the moonlit ride during the full moon. Guided only by the natural instincts of your horse, enjoy the peaceful nirvana of paradise where the modern world is far and away!Whatever your choice, Spirit of the West delivers premium service with true Caymanian hospitality. Each ride is an experience of a lifetime and every rider feels like they have done something they will never forget!

We’ve gone horseback riding on multiple occasions in various locations around the world but this ride was hands down my favorite ever! And it is my favorite experience while visiting Grand Cayman Island! We did the swim ride with Jordan and trotted along the coast and inland with Loafer; both were inviting, helpful and friendly guides. I was expecting to ride the horses through horse-knee-deep water but was fascinated when the saddles were removed and we rode into deep water where the horses swam (yes swam) with us balancing on their backs. I highly recommend this experience!

Cayman Turtle Centre: Island Wildlife Encounter

Cayman's most-visited and perennially popular land-based attraction, Cayman Turtle Centre: Island Wildlife Encounter hosts more than 300,000 visitors each year. Conservation of sea turtles and other island wildlife with associated research and education are at the heart of the company's mission. The Centre is also a vital component of the country's economy, providing a world-class tourist attraction that is truly one-of-a-kind: the only institution in the world that successfully breeds green sea turtles, releases captive-bred sea turtles into the wild, and allows visitors to get "up close and personal" with sea turtles in various exhibits and supervised encounters. Local and Caribbean birds, marine predators, crocodile and other island wildlife are also featured in this Grand Cayman island favorite "must-see".

We really enjoyed the time we spent at this interactive Turtle Centre. It is not a cheap day especially for a family so hopefully you can find a coupon. Get the full service choice so you can swim with the turtles. Arrive early so you can get to the Turtle Lagoon and find much more space to swim with the turtles and fish. It gets pretty busy the later you arrive. They provide the snorkel equipment and a flotation vest. That was so much fun and you can get super close to the turtles and the reef fish. Lots of other fun and informative activities such as feeding the nurse sharks, crocodile feeding once a week and feeding of large and small turtles. Very interactive and good for adults and children. Highly recommend this.
