About Grand Cayman
Grand Cayman is
the largest of
the three Cayman
Islands. Its
world-renowned
Seven Mile Beach
and azure blue
waters have made
it one of the
most popular
destinations in
the Caribbean.
Some of the
world’s greatest
scuba diving can
be enjoyed off
the coast and
along the
surrounding
coral reef, home
to a myriad of
exotic sea life.
Spend your days
exploring the many
wonders that bring the
island’s unique
personality to life. Be
sure to visit the turtle
farm with its
human-sized terrapins,
experience a unique
adventure at Stingray
City, or drive out to
the sparsely populated
east side of the island
with its scenic expanse
of craggy coastline. In
Savannah, you will find
the oldest structure on
the island, Pedro St.
James. Built in 1780 by
slave labor and
surrounded by lush
gardens, the Pedro
"Castle" multi-media
center will transport
you back two hundred
years to the birth of
democracy in the
Cayman Islands. One of
the island’s newest
features, a skate and
surfboarding park,
offers an exciting
challenge for the
adventurous-inclined.
With more than one
hundred restaurants,
Grand Cayman is a
food-lovers dream come
true. Whether you’re in
the mood for a quick
bite, or a dinner you’ll
never forget, the island
offers a full range of
cuisines from all parts
of the world. As for
traditional Cayman
specialties, be sure to
try the island’s
Jamaican-inspired jerk
and curry dishes,
featuring conch, lobster
and local seafood,
complimented by coconut,
plantain, breadfruit,
yams, cassava, rice and
peas and other West
Indian side dishes. If
you’re feeling truly
exotic, try one of the
native turtle dishes,
traditionally served
BBQ-style.
Coral Stone Club’s
central location on
Seven Mile Beach serves
as the perfect launching
point for
your daily activities,
and puts you in walking
distance to some of the
island’s finest cuisine
and shopping.
