Easter on Grand Cayman
Whether the holiday falls in March or April, Easter is a very festive time in Cayman. Both Good Friday and Easter Monday are public holidays. Caymanians celebrate the occasion by camping on beaches all over the Island, attending church services, and enjoying Easter brunches, Easter egg hunts, and other Easter-themed activities at many of our hotels and restaurants.
Activities to Enjoy on Grand Cayman in April
Seven Mile Beach: Often considered “The Caribbean’s Best Beach,” Seven Mile Beach is actually only 5.5 miles long, but it’s packed with most of Grand Cayman’s best hotels and condos and some of the best food in the Caribbean. Try kayaking, kite surfing, jet-skiing, parasailing or paddle boarding, or just relax under a Casuarina tree on the glorious white sandy beach.
National Gallery of the Cayman Islands – Art lovers appreciate the high-quality collection of Caymanian artworks here, as well as the scheduled and drop-in art classes and workshops for adults and children. Get a feel for the Island’s history through art, from its seafaring days to its development as a global financial center and popular tourist destination.
Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park – If you love native flora and fauna, this beautiful 65-acre botanic park is paradise. Vibrant, colorful gardens will treat you to all kinds of rare, beautiful flowers, such as the rare Ghost Orchid, the Banana Orchid (Cayman’s national flower) as well as endemic animal species, such as the Cayman Blue Iguana, which is found nowhere else on earth, the West Indian Whistling Duck, and the majestic Cayman Parrot, the national bird of the Cayman Islands.
USS Kittiwake: The Kittiwake is Grand Cayman’s biggest shipwreck and a haven for 50 species of coral and more than 500 species of fish.
Dive or snorkel on the wreck, a 251-foot-long former submarine support ship. After nearly 50 years of active service in the US Navy, she was sunk to serve as an artificial reef and an ocean tribute to worldwide seafarers. The water is so clear you can see the wreck from the surface, which is perfect for snorkelers and people diving for the first time.
