  • Grand Cayman is a beautiful island in the Caribbean that punches way above its weight class for food and attractions. In this video I'll show you what to aim for if you decide to go there. Definitely one of my favorite island experiences.

    Well produced - very personable and entertaining to watch. Additionally - everything mentioned about Cayman is absolutely accurate. I live in Rum Point (quieter side of Cayman) and show this video to my extended family and friends when they are considering their first time visit.... A really good video showing how wonderful Cayman is - thank you....

    My girlfriend (now fiancé as of 2 days ago!) and I are currently in Grand Cayman and you have been our personal travel guide. I’ve been waiting for dinner at Calypso since we first found this video months ago, and I have to say, your recommendation could not have been better. I had to come straight here on my phone to comment that the seafood rundown was indeed a 10/10! Our sticky toffee pudding was just ordered, can’t wait!

    Great video. We liked Peppers and Tillies but unfortunately Calypso was closed
    for slow season (we are on GC right now) . It has been one of our best trips anywhere and not only for the pristine beaches. The island is clean, safe and the people are the most kind and welcoming we’ve ever encountered, anywhere. We are already planning next years dates 💙

      And its been a little rainy these days but the past week its been sunny. there was a tropical storm warning, i have no clue when it hits though. anywayyy, since Calypso Grille is closed, i would suggest going to a place on the water. usually for dinner as Cayman has so many beautiful sunsets! there are lots of great places in george town like Casanova, water front, racums, etc. hope i helped 👍❤️

    Awesome vlog of Grand Cayman, the place I call home and I hope the next time you travel, should do a Vlog of our eastern district (East End, North Side and Bodden Town. These districts are very tranquil and there is plenty to do, and see.

    So where on 7 Mile Beach do you recommend to go when our cruise docks there for the day.

    • @ScruffyGolden
      @ScruffyGolden  Před 10 měsíci

      Hello.
      It depends on what you enjoy and how much time you have.
      From a time perspective, shopping and museums will be the closest and easiest to access, with time left for hanging out on the beach.
      If I wanted to do something "Caymanian", I would go to the Turtle Centre and spend a little time with the dolphins across the street.
      If I had a whole day, I would book a boat trip with George's Watersports and take in the stingrays and starfish.
      If I was in port overnight, I would do the bioluminescence tour and dinner at Calypso's. Both of those require a taxi, but are doable in that time frame.
      Hope that helps!

    • @ScruffyGolden
      @ScruffyGolden  Před rokem +1

      Hi Maria. I haven't done this myself, but my understanding is that several places do rent chairs. I know several of the bars on the beach rent chairs for sure, and I believe some of the hotels do also. I also get the impression there may be a difference between weekdays and weekends so best to call ahead to be sure. Good luck!

    Don't forget to go to the turtle farm and have some soup and sandwich, and the turtle taste delicious. We swam with the rays and enjoyed 7 mile beach, their is a glass bottom submarine for rent if it is still in operation, be careful of the coral it is hard on the feet, everything is expensive on the Island, it is British coined and the Canadian dollar takes a big hit
