Cayman Brac | Cayman Islands Sotheby's Realty | Caribbean
Cayman Brac is the second largest of the Cayman Islands and lies 89 miles to the north east of Grand Cayman, just a short half an hour or so flight away. Only 12 miles long with an average width of 1.25 miles, Cayman Brac (known simply as ‘The Brac’ to locals) is about 15 square miles in size.
‘Brac’ is actually a Gaelic word for ‘bluff’ and as such Cayman Brac is named after its spectacular bluff or cliff, rising to 140 feet above sea level at its highest, making this the greatest elevation in the three Cayman Islands. Within this rocky terrain an enticing array of caves abounds and visitors can enjoy tours with local guides and hear wonderful and mysterious tales of old along the way. Dive sites here are top quality and include a 330 foot long Russian Brigadier frigate called the MV Captain Keith Tibbetts that was scuttled in 1996 and is now teeming with aquatic life.
The Brac enjoys a slower pace of life in comparison to its big sister, Grand Cayman. Visitors come to Cayman Brac to get away from it all, to enjoy all the benefits of Caribbean island life in a natural laid-back setting. Homes are modern and there are a good many ocean front and inland plots and properties for sale. For such a small island Cayman Brac boasts a level of infrastructure that is unlike most islands of comparable size in the Caribbean, this provides a significant increase to the value of real estate in The Brac.

The Abandoned Resort in Cayman Brac: Divi Tiara Beach Resort
Switch to 1080p for better frame movement, not 720p. This video shows Divi Tiara Beach Resort in Cayman Brac. Abandoned hotels are fascinating. Abandoned resorts and abandoned hotels are some of the best spots to explore. In this video I explore an abandoned hotel, but you might want to refer to it more as an abandoned island resort. I hope you enjoy the video, and you can also check out my other video about an abandoned hotel.

The Abandoned Resort in Cayman Brac Trailer (Divi Tiara Beach Resort)
Watch the film:
In April 2013, I visited Divi Tiara Beach Resort on Cayman Brac, one of three Cayman Islands in the Caribbean. It's about 12 miles long and a mile wide.
While exploring the island, I discovered the abandoned Divi Tiara Beach Resort on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.
The film documents my discovery of the resort as it happened and is followed by a conclusion presenting my research on the resort's past with several old photos included.

Nestled in the calm, turquoise waters of the western Caribbean, lies the peaceful British Overseas Territory known as the Cayman Islands. Consisting of three islands just 480 miles south of Miami, Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac, and Little Cayman remain our little piece of paradise.
Government
The Cayman Islands highest official is the Governor, His Excellency, Mr. Duncan Taylor, CBE, who is the appointed representative of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. He presides over Cabinet, the ruling body of the country. Mr. Taylor succeeded Mr. Stuart Jack, CVO. The Governor's term is four years. The existing constitution of the Cayman Islands, introduced on August 22, 1972, provides for the government of the Cayman Islands as a British Overseas Territory. It established a governing body called the Cabinet, which consists of three officials and five elected members, the latter being selected from the 15 elected representatives of the Legislative Assembly. To see the 15 elected representatives or to get more information visit the Cayman Islands Government website.
Currency
The Cayman Islands has its own currency, first issued in 1972, whose basic unit is the dollar, issued in notes with denominations of CI$100, 50, 25, 10, 5 and 1 and coins valued at 25 cents, 10, 5 and 1 cent. The CI dollar has a fixed exchange rate with the US dollar of CI$1.00 equals US$1.25. Or, the US dollar equals CI $.80. There is no need for visitors to exchange their US dollars into local currency. The US dollar is accepted throughout the islands at a rate of CI 80 cents. However, this can be confusing to visitors: for example, a US$20 note becomes CI$16. Banks do NOT give a better rate of exchange! Major credit cards (with the exception of the Discover Card) and traveller's checks are widely accepted. Canadian dollars, Euro dollars and pounds sterling can be exchanged for CI dollars at local banks. In addition, Automatic Teller Machines accepting VISA and MasterCard with Cirrus affiliation are located at Cayman National Bank and other banks and at Owen Roberts International Airport as well as a few other locations such as the grocery stores.
Geography
The total land mass of the three islands is 100 square miles. Grand Cayman occupies 76 square miles; Cayman Brac, 14 square miles and Little Cayman, 10 square miles. Grand Cayman is approximately 22 miles long and 8 miles at its widest point, reaching a maximum elevation of 79.77 feet in North Side.
Cayman Brac is 14 miles long and 2 miles wide and has the most dramatic topography of the trio. Its majestic Bluff rises west to east along the length of the island to 151.75 above Spot Bay. Many mysterious caves are carved throughout this awe-inspiring natural attraction.
Little Cayman, only 10 miles long and a mile wide, is flat, reaching a maximum elevation of 55.75 ft. Its famous Bloody Bay wall Marine Park has been called one of the world's best dive sites. Inland, the 203 - acre Booby Pond Nature Reserve is a RAMSAR site and nesting ground for the Caribbean's largest population of Red Footed Boobies.

Seven Mile Beach | Cayman Islands Sotheby's International Realty | Caribbean
Seven Mile Beach, Grand Cayman - Moving to the west of George Town, you will travel along the West Bay Road which features the world famous crescent of Seven Mile Beach, a truly spectacular stretch of pure white sand which plays home to some of the finest luxury beach front properties within the Cayman Islands and the Caribbean with enviable ocean views and state-of-the-art amenities.
New construction is limited in this area but the length of Seven Mile Beach is fringed with condominiums which have either been very recently constructed or are well-established. The building code in the Cayman Islands has historically prevented the development of high rise condominium blocks which means that Seven Mile Beach remains a peaceful paradise with some of the least dense beach front real estate offerings in the Caribbean. The variety of property available on Seven Mile Beach however is great starting from an entry point of around US$300k right up to the super luxury residences to be found at The Ritz-Carlton Grand Cayman, Water's Edge, Caribbean Club and Water Colour's which can run into eight figure sums. Choose from family-friendly properties with lots of excellent lifestyle amenities such as tennis courts, swimming pools and gyms, as well as higher-end homes that incorporate the latest designs, materials and fixtures and fittings into a contemporary and luxurious property. Residences at The Ritz-Carlton Grand Cayman offer all the luxury lifestyle choices associated with hotel including the spectacular Silver Rain a La Prairie Spa, world class dining at Blue by Eric Ripert and a Nick Bollettieri designed tennis program, the coach behind such tennis greats as Andre Agassi, Monica Seles and Maria Sharapova.
On the east of the West Bay Road, running parallel to Seven Mile Beach, upscale condominiums and homes line the canals that bisect the land, creating local communities all along this stretch of Grand Cayman which overlooks the waterfront playground of the North Sound. The Ritz-Carlton Residences stand proudly on Seven Mile Beach, and the Resort as a whole straddles the entire width of the West Bay Road with the Ritz-Carlton Deckhouses overlooking the canals on the North Sound. On the North Sound side of the road a diverse selection of properties to suit a variety of budgets and a select collection of contemporary, luxury homes, many with their own boat deck, pool and incredible private view of the North Sound. The major waterfront developments with North Sound boat access are, starting south & working north: Camana Bay, Britannia Golf Resort, Snug Harbour, Canal Point, The Ritz-Carlton Deckhouses & The North Sound Club Golf Course, Crystal Harbour including The Grand Caymanian a Ramada Resort, Governor's Harbour, Cayman Islands Yacht Club, Vista del Mar and the newly developed Salt Creek a gated residential waterfront community of luxury homes. #CaymanIslandsSothebysrealty #sothebysrealty #CaymanIslandsrealestate
