The Cayman Islands are made up of three islands: Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman. The largest, Grand Cayman has a cosmopolitan vibe, gourmet restaurants, world-class diving and the famous Seven Mile Beach. Cayman Brac is a nature lover's heaven of stunning diving and breathtaking walks along the rocky bluff. The smallest island, Little Cayman is home to just 150 people. Visitors enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and diving, especially Bloody Bay Wall, considered one of the world's best wall dives.

Famous dive spot in Little Cayman.
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.

I booked this excursion through a cruise line. This was an amazing experience! The boat was clean, not crowded at all. The crew were informative and friendly. They made it possible for us to have enough playtime with the stingrays – fed, pet, and kissed (according to the locals, “it’ll bring 7 years of good luck”), so we made sure of that, lol! They were stingrays swimming around us as we stood at the sandbar, which was about 4 feet deep. Water was crystal clear. Make sure to bring underwater digital camera to capture those memorable photos to share, we sure did! Never felt we were rushed. We had a blast!

The Outpost at Rackams is a rum lovers heaven. The venue was established by Cayman Spirits, the Cayman Islands Distillery. Guided Rum Tasting Flights start at $5 USD and up. There is an interactive Barrel Wall featuring 20 varieties of rum and spirits that you can taste. Guests are able pick an empty bottle and have the guide fill, cap and label your own bottle directly from the barrel.
We stopped into The Outpost at Rackums and we enjoyed some Rum tasting as well as hot sauce. Ran into Moses and Jamar and they were the most pleasant and knowledgeable people. Picked up some Dark and Coconut Rum for the road. Strongly encourage stopping in and enjoying some spirits.

First built in 1780, the Great House at Pedro St. James (PSJ) is the oldest surviving stone structure in the Cayman Islands. A national historic site, its administration serves to preserve the physical building and to tell the story of the historical happenings occurring within the Great House’s walls. The PSJ attraction is located along the rocky cliffs of the area known as Pedro’s Point on Grand Cayman — in the country’s first capital of Bodden Town. Once a jailhouse, a courthouse, and house of parliament, the building, and the district of Bodden Town were dubbed “The Birthplace of Democracy in the Cayman Islands” - a title still worthy of national pride 240 years later.
My husband and I stopped at Pedro St James for a couple hours one morning to learn about the history of the island. We opted for the self-guided tour, which did not leave us wanting for information as there are signs throughout the main house talking about the history of the plantation and the structure, as well as panel after panel of island history in another building on the grounds. The whole area is gorgeous, from the patio of the visitor center, to the gazebo on the grounds, to the brilliant ocean views from the top floor of the main house, and there is a cute swing hanging from a tree that we stopped to enjoy as well. When we had wandered through to our hearts' content, we went into the theater for the show. It is a multimedia presentation of the plantation's history with immersive special effects. The room was cool, which was a change from the warm outside air. I wish we had known ahead of time that there was a special community dinner and rum tasting happening that evening, as we had other plans already and would have been interested in coming back for it!

Home to orchids (in bloom late May through June) and elusive Blue Iguanas as well as parrots and other birds.
Can't dive? Go here. The lush gardens will feel like exploring a reef. It's the perfect place to discover all kinds of vibrant plants, exotic birds, and all kinds of other creatures (some favorites: the silver thatch palm, green parrot, and blue iguana).

An uncrowded beach at the eastern tip of Little Cayman.
Lovely beach at the northeast end of Little Cayman. Worth the 15-20 minute drive from the airport. Take the road on the left after you turn in from the main road. (Despite the private property sign, the sign goes on to say that the owner permits the public to use so long as you respect the land.) A covered area is available with a BBQ pit and there is usually a few beach loungers around for the public's use. Great white sand beach and sandy entry into the water.

Located on the southwest part of Grand Cayman, this is a good bathing spot.
My husband and I snorkeled around the Cove and saw beautiful fish and sea urchins. There were so many different types of fish we could not keep count.

A 330-foot Russian frigate that was sunk in September 1996.
Great site, snorkeled out to it from our place on the shore. Water was clear and details of ship were very clear.

Virtual playground of mazes and grottoes.
I love Eden Rock/Devils Grotto. This is one of if not the best, shore dives on the island. The swim throughs are amazing and depending on time of year you will see loads of tarpon, silver sides and always a surprise or two. Bring a torch and head out for a spectacular dive.
