Top Attractions
Stingray City: Stingray City is located on the North Sound of Grand Cayman and is a quick 30-minute boat ride from shore. Learn about the biology and behavior of graceful Southern Stingrays while you view them in their natural habitat, hold them, feed them with squid treats, and even swim alongside them. Many tour operators include snorkeling tours (equipment included) to Coral Gardens, the popular nearby coral reef that’s known for its abundant marine life.
Cayman Turtle Farm: This world-renowned center is Cayman’s largest land-based attraction. Thousands of Hawksbill and Green Sea Turtles, the largest of the hard-shelled sea turtles and the second largest of all turtle species, make this 23-acre marine adventure park home. If you would like to see the turtle hatchery, visit from May to October.
Seven Mile Beach: Often voted “The Caribbean’s Best Beach”, Seven Mile Beach is actually only 5.5 miles long, but is packed with most of Grand Cayman’s best hotels and condos and some of the best cuisine in the Caribbean. Try kayaking, kite surfing, jet-skiing, parasailing or paddle boarding, or simply while away the day under a Casuarina tree on the glorious white sandy beach
Off the Beaten Path
Kittiwake Shipwreck & Underwater Museum: Dive or snorkel on the wreck of the USS Kittiwake, a 251-foot-long former submarine support ship that was sunk in 2011 to serve as an artificial reef. It is Grand Cayman’s biggest shipwreck and a haven for 50 species of coral and more than 500 species of fish. It can be enjoyed by all skill levels of snorkelers and scuba divers, and the water is clear enough to see the wreck from the surface.
Bioluminescent Bay: If you have time for an after-dark adventure, consider a kayaking tour of Grand Cayman’s Bioluminescent Bay. The magical phenomenon, which causes the sea to glow during the darkest nights, is created by tiny single-celled organisms called dinoflagellates that emit light as they move in the water. Be sure to book in advance because the bioluminescent schedule follows the moon cycle.
Cayman Crystal Caves: A geologic wonder, this attraction is situated in a lush tropical forest in North Side, Grand Cayman. The caves took millions of years to form as seawater erosion created caverns filled with stalagmites, stalactites, crystal-like mineral deposits, and a gorgeous interior lake. Once a hideout for pirates, you can now tour three of them daily (except Good Friday and Christmas Day).
