Comprised of three islands: Grand Cayman, Little Cayman, and Cayman Brac, the Cayman Islands are an Oversees Territory to Great Britain. These three islands are located in the Caribbean southwest to Jamaica, south to Cuba, and east of Belize and the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula.
Little Cayman and Cayman Brac are 75 miles north east of Grand Cayman.
Grand Cayman is a popular stop along the cruise ship route around the western Caribbean.
These islands are also known from the old Tom Cruise movie “The Firm” and for the wealthy to park their assets offshore. Like Bermuda, international banks and other financial institutions and advisories have offices here to support its financial industry.
The islands were uninhabited until the mid-1600s as British explorers from Jamaica arrived and were a colony of Jamaica until 1962 when it became a separate crown colony.
Blend of British, Caribbean, and American
Today the islands have a population of 60,000 with about 3% living on either Little Cayman or Cayman Brac. While the feel is distinctly tropical British and Caribbean, touches of American
They draw many ex-pats from the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Canada who work on the island, whether in financial services, tourism, or the restaurants and bars. Others come from Italy, France, South Africa, Jamaica, and the United States.
One of our favorite Irish pubs on the island is Fidel Murphy’s. Originally it was a Cuban place named Fidel’s. The name Murphy was tacked on to it after it transformed into an authentic Irish pub complete with satellite TV with UK sports channels and Irish draft beers on tap.
At the grocery store, I was pumped to see crumpets, my favorite British breakfast item, for sale. They have other British food brands and treats available too.
In addition, some American touches are on the island from recognized fast food places to well known resorts and hotels.
The downtown area of the island is called George Town, located on the southwest part of Grand Cayman. Souvenir shops, restaurants, and other tourist draws like our scuba shop are located here. It is an active area because of the large cruise ships that anchor just off the shore and their passengers that come to explore.
Escaping away from the crowds, head north east towards Bodden Town and up to the North Side and Rum Point. Along the way, stop off at the less crowded local beaches hidden from the road.
Rum Point has a more laid-back, Caribbean island beach bar feel with wind swept island pines, palm trees, and turquoise waters. Grab some jerk chicken, fried conch, and a frozen margarita at one of the picnic tables on the beach
Grand Cayman looks a bit like a sneaker and Rum Point forms top part of the tongue of this “shoe”. Rum Point is the northern central point of land where the bay meets the Caribbean Sea. The bay is in the form of a horseshoe shape. Its other point is the West End part of Grand Cayman.
Seven Mile Beach
After a visit to Hell, continue down the west coast along the famous Seven Mile Beach, voted the best beach in the Caribbean. This beach is just that, a seven mile stretch of perfect tropical beach with pristine sand and palm trees. The water is calm and at times as flat as glass. Many high end resorts and outdoor beach bars line the way. Taking a stroll you just may see a destination wedding in action by the water’s edge.
The best part though is watching the sunset over the horizon. A gorgeous ombre of pastel pinks, oranges, yellows, blues and more color the sky and reflect on the water.

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.

The Cayman Islands are an autonomous British Overseas Territory in the western Caribbean Sea. The 264-square-kilometre territory comprises the three islands of Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman, which are located to the south of Cuba and northeast of Honduras, between Jamaica and Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula. As of spring 2018, the population of the Cayman Islands was estimated to be 64,420 making it the second-most populated British overseas territory after Bermuda. The capital city is George Town, situated on Grand Cayman, by far the most populous of the three islands.
Grand Cayman is the largest of the three Cayman Islands and the location of the territory's capital, George Town. In relation to the other two Cayman Islands, it is approximately 75 miles (121 km) southwest of Little Cayman and 90 miles (145 km) southwest of Cayman Brac.
Grand Cayman Island has a number of natural attractions: the blow holes in the East End district, the Mastic Trail that runs north to south through the center of the island, Hell in the West Bay, and the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park.
Watersports such as scuba diving and snorkeling are popular activities on Grand Cayman as the island is known for its coral reefs and underwater sea walls along with a number of shipwrecks.
Because of its clubs, resorts, and hotels, Seven Mile Beach has the largest concentration of visitors and tourists on the island.
There are just under 600 banks and trust companies in the Grand Cayman, including 43 of the 50 largest banks in the world.[8] Because of this large financial presence on the island, banking, investments, and insurance drive the economy in Grand Cayman.[

Grand Cayman: Island Tour (Perfect for the Whole Family!)
Visiting Grand Cayman on a cruise? This video shows some of the highlights from the island tour. Your guide will take you past interesting houses such as the governor's mansion, how the locals live, a stop at the Tortuga Rum Co. where you can sample rum and rum cake, the dolphin discovery (and the turtle farm, right across the street), and ends at 7 mile beach. You can stay here for the rest of your day, or the tour does include a drop off back at the pier.
We booked on the pier (not through the cruise line) and it was affordable and informative! I would recommend it to families, people looking to save money, and those who have nothing planned for this stop.
