WHAT YOU VISIT
Cayman Turtle Centre
This world-class research and educational facility offers the opportunity to meet green sea turtles. Witness yearling turtles swimming and playing.
Tortuga Rum Cake Center
Made with a unique blend of Jamaican and Barbadian rums, these award-winning cakes offer an authentic taste of the Caribbean.
Hell
No one knows how the town got its name, but it could be from the various limestone formations rising out of the ground. Short spikes of eerie-looking black rocks look like lava in the aftermath of a volcano. Be sure to stop by the fire-engine red, hell-themed post office so you can send everyone back home a "postcard from Hell."
Stingray City Sandbar
Perched on the northwest corner of Grand Cayman's North Sound, Stingray City is home to a whole fleet of southern stingrays that congregate near the shore. As you enter the clear waters of their natural habitat, the graceful southern stingrays will glide tranquilly around you.
SHOPPING
For those wanting to take home a taste of the tropics, be sure to visit the Tortuga Rum Cake Center gift shop. Here, you'll find many varieties of freshly baked rum cakes, including chocolate, coconut, banana and coffee.
WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
From the pier, you'll take a scenic drive straight to Hell, a community just outside West Bay, on the northwest tip of Seven Mile Beach. Along the way, your guide will point out various points of interest, including the hotel zone, and the Old Homestead, now called the Pink House Museum, probably the most photographed house in Grand Cayman.
