　　Find your inner pirate at this tiny deserted island that’s a quarter-mile offshore from the Southern Cross Club. The beach here is unspoiled and the vegetation thick and unexplored. Get here by kayak or paddleboard, which you can rent from the club.

Must-see attractions

　　A relatively new attraction to Grand Cayman, this network of mysterious limestone caves is located deep in the island's interior. There are some 105 caves on the property, though only three are open to the public (so far). Look for impressive stalactite and stalagmite formations, lots of hidden rooms and...

Little Cayman Museum

　　Housed in new quarters, this is an impressive museum for a little island. Stop by to peruse exhibits on the history of Cayman, as well as a display of wonderful underwater photography and rotating exhibits of local artwork. There's also an iguana habitat out back, which the museum attendant (an...

Island Naturals Café

　　Delicious vegan cafe featuring healthy salads, yummy soups, acai bowls, cold-pressed juice, gluten-free baked goods, and locally roasted coffee made with Brazilian beans.

Governor’s Beach

　　Tucked between resorts, the tree-shaded parking lot here opens onto a sweet section of Seven Mile Beach that is rarely crowded. There's a reason they call it Governor's Beach: this quiet stretch of sand fronts the governor's mansion. ...

Vivine’s Kitchen

　　There really is a Miss Vivine and she really does live in this roadside home with stellar views of the ocean. Local treats such as goat curry, fish and fritters, stewed beef and much more are served up home style; desserts include cassava and sweet-potato cake. Eat at a picnic...

Seven Mile Beach

　　Although it’s really only about 5½ miles long, this gorgeous strand has flawless white sand and crystal-blue waters – it's just as pretty as a postcard. It's lined with resorts and vacation properties, but the beach itself is public. The main public beach-access point – just south of the Kimpton...

　　Easily one of the best snorkeling spots on Grand Cayman, this series of coves has shallow, calm water, pretty rock formations and a nice variety of sea life, including colorful fish and a resident octopus or two. The beach offers a changing area and bathroom, as well as some shaded...

Barry's Golden Jerk

　　Barry's roadside shack will satisfy your craving for jerk chicken and pork, served with fresh-baked bread. He's only there three days a week, but if you time it right you'll see (and smell) the spicy goodness being cooked up in the oil-drum smoker in the yard. ...

Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park

　　Come here to see a veritable treasure trove of the island’s native species. A series of walking trails traverses the lovely landscaped gardens, which include a rainbow-themed Color Garden, the historical Heritage Garden with a traditional Caymanian house as its centerpiece, an orchid garden (in bloom in late May and...

　　Ask a local where they like to spend a sunny day and they will likely direct you to this gorgeous strip of sand at the northern end of Seven Mile Beach. It's rarely crowded – not because it's haunted but because there are no big resorts in the area. You...

　　Cayman Brac sculptor Ronald 'Foots' Kynes' brightly colored oceanfront home doubles as an art museum, and he's happy to lead guests on tours. Messages pertaining to art, war and Led Zeppelin adorn surfaces and signs around the property, and provocative sculptures can be found inside and spilling into the yard...
