George Town

George Town is Grand Cayman's capital, one major tourist destination in the whole Caribbean. For its part, the island has faithfully kept to the British customs and traditions, a legacy of too many years of English rule. Today, that legacy arouses a great cultural interest, let alone its white-sandy beaches of crystal-clear waters and coral reefs stretching out for over 12 kilometers. This small town is teeming with hotels, markets, malls and restaurants, plus 500 free-port banks. Fort Street is the city's main street. East End, the island's first-ever settlement, is one of the places worth paying a visit to. Such musical spots like Turtle Club, are typical and entertaining locations. Alongside that same coast visitors will bump into the famous roadside geysers, streams of hot water spurting out of the rocks also known as billowing streams. The Turtle Farm is the world's only place where visitors can gaze at green turtles of all sizes and ages, some of them as old as 100 years. If you like going to the beach, there're plenty of them in the Cayman Islands. Cayman Cay, Rum Point, East End and Water Cay are some of those white-sandy locations of crystal-clear waters waiting for you. Water sports and scuba diving centers will provide you with the enjoyment you've been looking for. Fishing, windsurfing, scuba diving, swimming, golf and tennis will be there for you. South Sound Road is one of the most refreshing locations on the Cayman Islands. This is a road rimmed by pine trees and old wooden houses wedged in between those trees. From a cultural standpoint, the island counts on the Maritime and Treasure Museum, the right place to hear stories about pirates and buccaneers, and the Mokee Treasure Museum, showing off 17th-century schooners. Other sightseeing places are the Legislative Assembly, the City Hall, the National Library, the court of law and a monument honoring King George V. Don't miss out on the chance of coming down to Bodden Town, a small picture-perfect village, and to Botabano, the right spot for scuba divers.
