Cayman Brac is simply a magical island. If you are looking for a quiet, off-the-beaten-path place to relax and enjoy the sun, look no further. While the Brac is the perfect place to "get away from it all", there is also plenty to do:
-
fantastic scuba diving and snorkeling, including a sunken Russian frigate and over 50 pristine dive sites
-
checking out the many caves on the island
-
incredible birdwatching
-
yoga
-
rock climbing
-
fishing
-
hiking one of several trails on the island
-
exploring the parrot reserve
-
visiting Christopher Columbus gardens
-
sampling local cuisine
-
beachcombing
-
shopping for local art
-
visiting the lighthouse on the bluff
-
playing in the sand on the public beach, where you often will have it all to yourself.
The Brac is small - only 19 km (12 miles) long and about 2 km (1.2 miles) wide, so everything is within close reach. With a population of only around 2,000, it is an incredibly safe and friendly place to stay.
There are several grocery stores, liquor stores, shops, excellent restaurants and bars, as well as a good hospital including a decompression chamber for divers.
The island is a short fight from Grand Cayman via Cayman Airways, which operates several flights a day.
